Question
My rabbit Coco is pregnant and she is loved and looked after well. i have a nest box ready and she is pulling fur out and everything is going well. The only problem is im really WORRIED that when she has the babies i will not know if they are still born "peanut" or alive please help
im 13 years old and am worried thank you x

Answer
Hi,
If they are stillborn, they will be cold, and not moving. Peanuts are really tiny and underformed. I will place a link to the bottom of this answer to a website, that shows and explains a peanut. You will know very well if they are alive. When you touch them, they will pop up and sqeak.
