Hi,my rabbit(Molly)was suposed...

Question
Hi,my rabbit(Molly)was suposed to have babies four days ago and she still hasent had them.so we think she cant have them what do i do?

Answer
Dear Holly,

If she is showing signs of labor without producing any babies, then definitely get her to a good rabbit vet, whom you can find here:

www.rabbit.org/vets

But if she's not yet nesting or showing signs of discomfort, she might be a little late.  Rabbit gestation lasts 28-31 days.  When the babies come, this will help:

but once Molly has weaned her babies (NO YOUNGER THAN 8 WEEKS!), please take action, as described here:

I hope this helps.
