Rabbits...?

if a rabbit is going to eat her babies would she do it straight away??
Answers:
You never know when they'll do it. Sometimes they eat them in the middle of the night when everyone's asleep. Seriously...
no.
In most cases yes. I wouldn't worry about it too much. If they lived the first few days your probably in the clear.

Also this usually only happens with younger mother rabbits

Animals, including rabbits, will usually eat a sick baby that is unlikely to survive right away. However, mother can also eat their litters if they are stressed to the point where they feel that the litter will not survive. Try to keep mom rabbit as calm as possible.
most of the time it is the male if not removed so remove the father asap the female normaly eats the because she feals threatened
don't know, I had one once that waited untill they were all born then started eating them, I tryed to rescue the two that were left but they died.
she will do it in between about 0-4 days.
no but fish will
