Questionwe have 3 week old baby rabbits but we suspect 1 has broken its left back leg it has no motion in it can it get better or if it got surgically removed can it survive with only three legs if it got lots of care?
AnswerDear Laura,
I know plenty of rabbits who live happily as "tripods." But please get the baby to a good rabbit vet ASAP:

for correct diagnosis and treatment. A broken leg is painful, and is a nidus for infection. The sooner this is treated, the better.
Good luck,
Dana
