I just got a pack of Timothy Hay specially for BlueBerry to build her nest. But on the other hand I also realize that she is exhibiting nesting behavior way too early. Most materials that I have read and from past experiences, a pregnant doe should only be given its nest box on the 28th day of pregnancy which is 2 days before expected kindling date. But I have given BlueBerry her nest box a week ahead of time.
I guess it is very difficult to take rabbit behaviors by the books. Nature is just so unpredictable. So here I am counting down the days. She has got another 3 days to kindle and we shall see if we will have nice little kits. Really praying hard that she will be good to them this time.

One of my does always builds her nest a week ahead. I wouldn't worry to much.
I'm praying she'll be a good mom too. :)
Hi Caroline,
I hope I got the right person. Thanks for prayers. Really really appreciate it. I am just so anxious now. Hoping to get some blue kits. I shall be posting photos if they do arrive.
Thank you so much for following the blog. Really appreciate a fellow breeder dropping by.
