My rabbit was bred can she still have a false pregnancy?

I bred my rabbit for three days and she has shown all of the signs above but I have not palpated her. Can she still have a false pregnancy?


***(Note from Emma a couple days later)***
Never mind! I found three babies in a nest in her cage--they'd been born a couple days ago, and I didn't notice right away.

Good job! You saw the signs and your gut instinct was right -- your doe WAS pregnant. *grin* Enjoy the new life!

The same thing happened to one of my does. I thought she was not pregnant, but I found 5 babies in her cage. Sadly they did not have enough protection and they all died. So, if your doe was showing signs she was pregnant, and fortunately she was, but you can also have does that show signs and never have their babies. I have a doe like that right now, I bred her in June but she still had not had her litter yet.
