This is called superfecundity, and it's a fascinating adaptation of the species. It's important to understand:
* This is not a healthy situation for the mother rabbit. It puts immense strain on her body and can lead to health problems and even death.
* The kits from the first litter might not be fully weaned. This can lead to competition for milk and potential neglect from the mother.
To ensure the health of the mother and her kits, it's crucial to:
* Separate males and females after breeding.
* Keep the mother rabbit on a balanced diet with plenty of greens and hay.
* Provide a safe, clean nesting environment.
It's also important to consult with a veterinarian for advice on rabbit care and breeding practices.
