Yes, she was
Last night at 10:30 after having built her nest and plucked a fair amount of wool I noticed Miss Daisy sitting in her nest, at 10:47 she had her baby, it is only one but a perfect one all the same. Looks like it may be a harlequin, though it's too soon to tell. She is a good momma, sitting on the nest almost constantly since he was born, usually rabbits have very little to do with thier babies other than feeding once or twice a day, but Daisy seems to know that her single baby could get cold and die easily so I am thinking that is why she is sitting there, to keep him warm. I'm thrilled that she was pregnant and happy to have any amount of healthy babies butI really wish that she had more than one, the survival rate of just one can be sketchy just because there are no other bunnies to help generate body heat.
