English Angora giving birth

22 11:08:40

Question
This is her third litter.  She had one at 10am this morning and has just now had a second at 7:00pm.  She is acting normal, but why so long between them.  I could feel more inside her.  Thanks

Answer
Hi Dee,
this doesn't sound normal to me..Normally a rabbit will have given birth to a litter of 4-6 kits within that time period. I would call a vet for further advice on this,with your call provide information on mother's age,breed of rabbit,and if this is her first kindling.  The vet may recomend going in to be seen...Good luck to you,Elizabeth
