I discovered a rabbit nest in my raised bed and we have rain forecasted over the next three days. Will they be okay? I don’t know what to do and I would rather not have dead bunnies 🙁
Idk if this helps, last time we had a bunny nest too and for some reason one bunny was decapitated and was found on the grass.
Planning to install fences around the beds to avoid this issue.

The best thing you can do for the bunnies is to do nothing at all. A little bit of rain won’t hurt them at all and temperatures seem comfortable. Handling the babies will just cause more issues and may cause mom to abandon them.
The decapitated one you found last year was most likely from a domestic cat. Some other animals are known to decapitate their prey, but cat is a good bet most of the time.

How tall is your raised bed? Do you have hardware cloth underneath it? Just curious to how the bunny got in!! Comfy little spot!
