Hi,
How old were the babies when you seperated them from the mother.
Rabbits are usually not weaned from their mother until they
are 6-8 weeks old. Seperating young rabbits from their
mothers earlier than this is not healthy for baby rabbits.
At 4 weeks baby rabbits may look like they are eating rabbit mix but they
are
also still drinking from mum.
Kind regards,
Marguerite
