Baby Bunnies

three days ago, one of our female rabbits (Peace) started pulling out her fur to make a "nest" usually this means that she is expecting babies, my mom freaked out, and started looking up everything about rabbit pregnancies. she read that rabbits will sometimes have false pregnancies when they are near males. I looked at her and noticed that she did look a bit bigger than normal. I felt her sides and i could feel something pushing against my hand. my parents thought that i was just kidding them, and did not belive me when i said i was telling the truth. Our rabbit continued to make a nest for the next day. Finally, my parents felt her sides and also felt something pushing, my dad and i made her a nest box in case she did have babies. we put the nest box in her cage at 5:00 and she had the babies before 6:00. she had six babies, two black, two white, and two we cant tell yet. theres one runt thought thats really small, were worried about it. its been two days since she had them, and there all o.k so far.
