My rabbit is pregnant. How to tell how far along she is without a vet?

Question

I have two rabbits, who have temporarily been living together and i now think my female is pregnant. I have done some research including palpation and am almost certain that she is, however I do not know how far into her pregnancy she is? Is there any way of me finding out how far along she is so that I can prepare for when she is due as I am still in school and can't afford to go to a veterinary clinic.

Unfortunately, the only way to know for sure how far along she is in her pregnancy is to take her into the vet, and I can give you some resources that may help you afford a vet. The typical gestation length of rabbits is 31 days. You will need to take the male out of Binky's cage before she gives birth because he will mate with her again after she gives birth, and you could end up with more rabbits. I will put another link to a resource below on how to take care of a pregnant rabbit and her kits: If paying for a vet is an issue, you can see if your vet accepts payment plans, if there is a low cost clinic in your area, or you can apply for Carefree Credit online. http://www.carefreecredit.co.uk https://www.rspca.org.uk/whatwedo/vetcare http://www.easipetcare.com http://myhouserabbit.com/new-to-rabbits/about-baby-bunnies/
