Baby Kits


I just discovered these kits this morning. Usually I don't get to see kits until they leave the burrow. We have been having perfect rabbit weather. Highs in the mid 70's, lows in the low 50's, and no rain. So this burrow is nice and open, and the kits are on top of the nest rather than snuggled down underneath.


I don't know how hold these kits are. I've asked the kind folks at Homesteading Today's rabbit forum to take a look and see what they think.

I don't know how many there are. I think at least five. When they're down in the burrow it's hard to tell. I can't get close enough to reach way down in there without risking caving in part of their burrows. Those things go everywhere!

Thanks, Cyndy. I leaned WAY over and held my camera WAY out to get that photo. I took about 8 or 10 and these were the only two that weren't blurry.

We've actually thought about getting one of those remote controlled web cams and setting it out there so folks could click on a link and then view the rabbit colony. Last time we checked, the remote controlled ones were pretty expensive and I think distance was also a factor. It's been a while, I should check into it again.

I would say they are a week or less old. My kits look just like this and they are a week old today!
