How to prevent miscarriage in pregnant rabbits? Careful management is key

Domestic rabbits are highly sensitive, timid, and easily startled, so even a small lapse in care can easily lead to miscarriage. After a doe becomes pregnant, she should be housed alone in 1 cage per rabbit, and she should not be caught for no reason; if she must be caught, the movements should be gentle. Do not make loud startling noises near the rabbit cage either, and prevent dogs, cats, and other animals from barking and moving in and out near the rabbit shed, so that the pregnant doe is not frightened into jumping and running wildly inside the cage, which can cause miscarriage. Do not palpate the belly casually. Palpation is best done 10 to 15 days after mating. When palpating, do not use too much force, and even more so, do not grab or pinch with your hands to count the number of embryos.
