Default Can a Winter White be pregnant whilst birthing another litter?

Please excuse the confused heading, I am not sure how to describe this.

I am a hobby breeder of Winter Whites. I separated my female from her mate several days before she gave birth, she has 10 pups that were born on 13th January this year (yes, a big litter for a Winter White). She has had no adult with her since and yet there is a SECOND LITTER born today!!! I am confused and shocked but also impressed.

How can this happen?

Has anyone come across this before?
