Description from the creator

This is my pregnant doe Lucy. She's a dwarf lop rabbit. In the video she was three weeks pregnant, now she has four days to go, yay :3
Ways to tell if your rabbit is pregnant;
The first thing you might notice is her mood.
She gets cranky, and a doe who may have once been your best friend, isn't anymore. She might growl or lunge at you when you try to out your hand in her cage.

She probably won't like being picked up - it isn't advisable to Pick up pregnant does anyway.

She will lay down a lot more, becoming lazier.

The best way to know if your rabbit is pregnant is to 'palpate' her abdomen. I'm not an expert on that, so look it up on YouTube or google and you should learn how.

Towards the very end of her pregnancy she will start plucking her fur out and start carrying hay everywhere, making a nest.
When she starts plucking fur, or on the 28th day of her pregnancy, put a nesting box in her cage. She should know what to do.
