Default Uncovered a rabbit nest iin my half-barrel planter

Um, thanks, but besides not being pet-quality (the adults are actually
slightly ugly) I'm pretty sure they would die. There are at least five of
them all snuggled together, about 3" down into the soil, and right now they
are not much bigger than mice (which I initially thought they were, but
they're definitely rabbits).

I really want to encourage the mom to come get them out of there. She must
be one dumb bunny, because there are acres & acres of vacant fields nearby
and I further don't know why she'd put them 2 feet up, inside a (then-empty)
planter in a fairly high-traffic place outside my front door. I've never
been successful at rehabbing baby bunnies...And, I don't want her dumb ass
squashing or chewing on my newly planted big-leaf Coleus, either.

Ask a pet store if they want to take them for sale?

And try not to think about their fate once sold to careless buyers g
