she will eat when shes ready but you can try dry dog food and put a bit of warm dog milk on it! Because they do eat the afterbirth and all that comes out after each pup, most mothers are not hungry for a day or so. Provide food close by and especially lots of water. Keep them in a closed, quiet area for the first week. Make sure your female is drinking within the first day, eating by the second day, and urinating and having bowl movements. The first bowl movements usually come out black or very dark in color. This is because she last ate the after birth which consists of lots of blood. Sometimes you have to force a new mother to leave her babies to eat or go outside to potty. Sometimes you have a female that wants to leave her pups all the time. This can be alleviated by leaving her alone with her pups the first couple of days. No matter how much you want to go in and peek at the pups, hold them, and what not, let the mother bond first.

Mother rabbit eat the new bunnies head off?
A rabbit's natural instinct is to protect the herd (warren). In the wild dead baby bunnies attract predators so the mothers will eat them. They also eat any after birth. Sometimes mothers who are having a hard time giving birth will bite and/or tear at the babies while giving birth. This is why so many of the breeds with bull dog type heads have such low live birth ratios. It is hard for the mothers to give birth.
