Moving pregnant rabbit from inside to outside hutch

[ElocinB]

My daughter just finished an outdoor hutch for her pregnant rabbit (babies due in 6 days) and she would like to move the doe into the new, much larger cage for kindling. Does anyone have any experience moving pregnant rabbits from indoor to outdoor hutches, or moving pregnant rabbits, and would like to offer advice/thoughts. We are letting her explore the new cage today and then planning to move her tomorrow for her first overnight. Thanks!

I would wait until the kits have opened their eyes. Moving her now means she can be stressed and either deliver early, eat the kits or both.

Oh that's worrisome, but thank you for the input!
