Real Rabbit Foot
Is My Rabbit in Heat?
I don't know if my rabbit is male or female, but I think it's a boy...Is this mating season? He's been running circles & figure 8's around my feet. Running around like crazy & he stinks all of a sudden- real bad. Stinks skunky, sorta. He's been pooping by my computer (he's litter trained). And he's been really trying to get to me when I'm on the couch. He'll jump up, I'll push him down, but he'll jump up again & again...And he's been licking my feet. Anybody know why?
What's his deal?
It costs a whole lot to get a rabbit fixed. What is it going to help?
Apperently my rabbit is a girl?! S/he has a 'dewlap'. I thought HE was just getting fat!
I've felt nipples on Oreo, but knew that males & females both have 'em.
Sexing rabbits is not really hard to do. You can usually do a good job identifying a buck from a doe, at least from the age of 3 weeks and on. An older buck is easy to identify. The head and body is generally more blocky than the doe. Does of the medium and large breeds often develop a fold of skin under their chins. This fold is called a dewlap. Older does are usually larger than bucks of the same breed. A buck's testicles can be seen on a hot day. The testicles must be kept at a certain temperature in order for sperm to be produced. The testicles descend further on hot days and are brought back toward the body on cool days. In this way their temperature is regulated.
I am posting a link under source that will give you pictures to tell the difference between male and female.
The female rabbit (doe) does not come into heat (oestrus) as do other animals. The doe will accept the male (buck) at any time of the year.
Does are mature and can breed at 5 to 6 months of age and can continue to have young for 4 years.
The length of pregnancy in the rabbit is 31 days and the doe can produce from 1 to 12 young each time she gives birth. She can become pregnant again within a few days of giving birth. However it is not good practice to allow the doe to become pregnant straight after giving birth. It is better to mate the doe when her young (litter) are 4 weeks old so that they are 8 weeks old when the next litter is born. In this way one doe can produce 6 litters a year.
Two weeks after mating you can feel the young through the side of the doe's belly.
Male rabbit (buck)
Traditionally people keep all their rabbits together. However it is advisable to keep the buck separate from the does and do not keep bucks together as they will fight. The doe must be taken to the buck for mating and then returned to her place. A buck can be used until he is 7 years old. If you have large numbers of rabbits together use one buck with every 15 does.
