My dogs got into a nest of wild baby rabbits and killed one before I got to them. There were two left and now I need to know what to feed them in order to raise them so that I can set them free in about 4-6 weeks. I have read that 2% cows' milk works excellent and I've also read not to give them cows' milk. Does anyone know what I should do?? Please help!

Go to the pet store and buy sub milk for baby rodents/ rabbits. They should have some. Also, how old are they?

If you can, put the bunnies back. fostering rabbits is hard. If you can't try to find a breeder who will let you foster them to one of her does.

feed them rabbit food pet rabbits eat the same thing as wild rabbits just in pellets if you put them back they will be in danger because their mom will not take them back she might kill them if you raise them you might just have to keep them as pets because they will not know how to survive on their own.

You don't feed it 2% get some formula for puppys and use that. the 2% isn't as strong as the moms milk. a mother rabbits milk is much stronger. please trust me i have 13 rabbits and 5 baby rabbits (kits) i have much expieriance.
