Most doe rabbits have 8 nipples to nurse 8 kits. So many breeders breed two does on the same day so they have babies on the same day, that way if one doe has 4 kits and the other doe has10 you can put 2 kits from the other doe to the first one. I do this most of the time just in case something happens. Although we have never successfully fostered a baby kit our self, it is best to let nature take its course. Some breeders have had a doe have 14 kits and nurse them all. Have you ever fostered a kit?
