Question
I have found 5 baby rabbits one has their eyes open and the rest dont two of them are half the size of the others what should i do

Answer
Dear MustLoveDogs,

Leave the babies safely in their nest, and do not disturb them.  The mother is caring for them, but does not stay nearby in order to avoid attracting predators.  Please read:

I hope this helps, and the babies will be fine.
