It doesnt take a lot to figure out what happened from a birth. Im sure they probably just saw the dead babies and all the blood the next morning. I agree you shouldn't bother animals while birthing, but don't assume and accuse and yell at someone if you don't know the whole situation. Just my 2 cents.

Anyway, Im sorry she had such a hard time. I had a momma rat give birth to 4 dead babies and bleed a lot. So I gave her some time off and she is now giving me great litters and is such a good mommy. If she makes it through this ordeal and you decide to breed her again, just make sure you give her a least a few weeks before breeding her. Good luck
