Baby Blue Bee Bunnies would like to nominate The Woodland Babies.

At the beginning of the month we found ourselves landed with yet another 9 tiny rescues. And since then, it's been hourly feeds to save their lives....

The Woodland babies found themselves at BBBB. A litter of three sisters around 16 weeks old and unfortunately a second litter of 5 babies which are only around 2-3 weeks old.

Prior to arriving we had been advised that they were 6 to 7 weeks old, even then far too young to be separated from their mum, but at 2 to 3 weeks we have been striving round the clock to do our very best for them.

To give these babies any chance of survival they are now having to be hand reared.

A few weeks in and while not out of the woods they are getting stronger and we continue to give them round the clock care. We can just pray that these gorgeous little buns get the chance to enjoy the life they deserve.
