Techniques for Fostering Rabbit Kits
Foster kits when a doe has too many young or too little milk, but do it within a week of birth, keep litters within 3 days of age, and use a healthy doe with ample milk. The trick is scent: blend the kit's smell with the nurse doe's nest, dab her milk or urine on it, or dull her nose with paraffin/iodine so she can't tell it isn't hers. Watch her reaction and repeat if she rejects it.
