hey jazz good to hear she had em, i usualy just leave the jill to do her thing mate apart from givin her food and water.

the kits usualy find there own way out of the sleeping box when there ready.

cheers mate i dont want to disturb her at all. i was cleaning her corner earlier and she came out so i let her smell my hand as she is really friendly so hopefully sh wont see me as a threat,,,

Hope everyone has calmed down now as this post seems to have caused a lot

of bad feeling for one reason or another

At the end of the day we are all hear coz we enjoy the same field sports and are

after a bit of advise as NONE of us now it all and NEVER will

So lets get back to the job in hand by helping each other out and let this POST go

Nice sorted at the end of the day

[jazz_11 5]

yes thanks guys... ONE other question though, i was cleaning my jills cage earlier nothing unusual, she came out sniffed my hand then locked on i could not believe it she has never ever bitten me or tried to, she tried dragging me into the cage, the door was open i got her off then she walked out of the cage i couldnt believe it because i didnt think she would leave the cage at all, i promtly picked her up and put her back in she went back in left her for a few minutes then i opened the sleeping area because she cant see me when i do because tehre is so much hay and sawdust in there so she could nest and i could still hear squeeking and sucking noise so i gather she didnt go in and eat them... ill check on them a bit later, at what age will they start climbing out of the nesting area....

jills tend to get a bit "bitey" when they have a litter, Id say, leave her alone as much as possible, only clean out when absolutely neccessary and stop peaking in the sleeping quarters, as this if anything, could get a new mum to panic and either abandon or eat

[max abell 196]

Yeh as stubby said mate leave her in peace for a few days she is obviously a bit

touchy at the min but she will go back to normal soonish

we have had jills nip us when they are having a phantom pregnancy and these are jills

that have never bitten anybody its there horemoans and motherly protection nothing to worry about

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR LITTER
