Can you foster the kits of one doe to another?

Fostering kits from one doe to another is indeed an accepted practice in rabbit care and husbandry. This can be beneficial in situations where a doe has a larger litter than she can adequately care for or if a doe is unable to care for her own kits due to various reasons such as health issues or lack of maternal instinct.

When fostering is done correctly, it allows the orphaned kits to survive and thrive, ensuring that healthy rabbits are raised. It is important, however, to ensure that the foster doe accepts the new kits, which can be facilitated by careful introduction and, if necessary, scent-masking techniques to make the transplant less stressful for the doe.

Other options like the prohibition or conditional fostering approaches do not reflect the common practices used by rabbit breeders and caretakers. Proper understanding and execution of fostering can greatly improve the chances of survival for orphaned or undernourished kits.
