It is not likely that the mother will eat the babies unless they are already dead or there is something wrong with them. From the day that our kits our born I give Mom a little special treat to appease her while I check the babies to pull out any dead and check general health. I do this everyday (at least once a day) from the day that the babies are born. If Mom has any aggression it is quickly diffused by the treats that she gets while I handle the babies. I hope that this helps you.
