Caryl Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 I assume you mean baby rabbits :lol: By the way, rabbits don't care if they are brother and sister (or father and daughter, mother and son etc etc etc) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LYNDYLOO Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 Congratulations on the safe arrival of you Baby Bunnies :bounce: I used to breed Mini Lop Earred Rabbits for Animates, beautiful wee creatures, you will be suprised at how quick they grow. Just a word of warning, I would be seperating Dad from Mum, they are prolific Breeders, Dad will usually mate again with Mum as soon as she has finished giving birth. May already be to late, you may find you end up with another Litter of Kits in around 4 weeks time. Good Luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twinkles Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 congrats you could also get dad neutered so they can still be friends without making more suprises Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olly Posted November 10, 2009 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 As a kid we had a rabbit on its own for about a year and then one day it had babies lol. It must have been more than friends with a wild rabbit through the cage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phoenix44 Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 Can rabbits be spayed or neutered? vets tend to stay away from the smaller breeds as the risk of anaesthesia related deaths are higher in smaller animals - but it can be done. large minilops and flemish giants are done all the time.

pufferfishnz Posted December 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 keeping them seperated works well....if you get the male out as soon as the female gives birth! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spoon Posted December 14, 2009 Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 we got our male tony neutered so we didnt end up with babies however we may still have to get the female molly fixed as she dominates tony and wont leave him alone. its also difficult to explain to kids why the mummy rabbit is doing that to the daddy rabitt :lol: it cost the same as a cat at our vet $80 but it will vary a lot from vet to vet ive found tony to be a much nicer rabbit since he was fixed too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmsmith Posted December 18, 2009 Report Share Posted December 18, 2009 I've heard stories about outside bunnies doing the deed through their cage - you open the cage in the morning to say good morning to your solo, female bunny who you've had for a year or however long, and staring back at you are 10 baby bunnies!
