How do you know that the mother rabbit is nursing the baby rabbit? A chubby belly?

Whether the mother rabbit is nursing the baby rabbit can be judged from the following aspects:

1.** Observe the breast swelling of the lactating female rabbit * *: If the breast swelling of the female rabbit is obvious, gently squeeze it with your hand, which means that the female rabbit has milk. On the contrary, if the breast does not swell obviously, it can't be squeezed out or only a little milk can be squeezed out, then it is insufficient milk.

2.** Observe the behavior of the young rabbit * *: If the young rabbit sleeps well after eating, her abdomen is round, she feels elastic, her skin is rosy and her fur is bright, then it means that the mother rabbit has milk. If the young rabbit rolls in the nest, its skin shrinks, its stomach shrinks, its skin is dark, its fur is dull, and it feels like its head is running up and squeaking, then it may be that the mother rabbit has insufficient or no milk.

3.** Observe the rabbit's belly directly * *: If the rabbit's belly is round, it may be caused by drinking milk. But if the rabbit's stomach is flat or her skin is shriveled, it may be because the mother rabbit has insufficient or no milk.

The above judgment methods are for reference only. For more accurate information, please consult a professional veterinarian.
