Jill has eaten a kit???

[nessie122 0]

Hi,

 

My Jill had 8 kits 10 days ago, they all seemed healthy and were growing well. This morning there is only 7 kits and no sign of the other. The Jill must have eaten the kit as there was no sign of it about the nest or the hutch. Is this normal, all the kits were about the same size and looked healthy.

 

Cheers

Nessie
