I'v been nursing rabbit for like 6 months. The first one gave birth to 4 kits and all of them died. The second one gave birth to 4 kits as well 3 has died perhaps, the remaining one is not sure of survival...

They didn't care for their Kitts...
Kindly help what can I do to stop it.?
Can the kit stay out of their mother after birth?
What can they be eating or drinking ?
Kindly help !!!

This is the problem many people have. They like to learn through DIY- do it yourself, instead of getting a mentor and learning through practical experience.

Hope you are not practising Inbreeding; crossing animals of the same bloodline.

not because of not experienced. My sister rears rabbit, she has like 100 rabbit now but sometimes if they give birth, they still kill their children, some can even eat it. That's how rabbit it normally.

Did you get the male and female from the same farmer? There might be possibilities that the farmer sold you close related animal.

Inbreeded animal do have weak immune system,that's why the mother do kill and eat up the cuttlings freshly after giving birth to them,the other survivors might suffer other health challenges as a result of their health deficiencies.

What I will suggest you do is to get another male from a different farmer to cross your female and vice versa for your male.

Yes,I bought it from the same farmer...
With your write up, it will be the result of matching make and female from the sand bloodline...

I'll do as you advice and get back to you by God gave when they give birth again...
