i jst read on the net that they can fall pregnant at 3.5 mths old is this true please help?Can a rabbit fall pregnant at 4 mths old?
Yes, they can get pregnant as early as 3 months, and siblings should be separated before that. The smaller breeds like the polish and netherland dwarf can be safely bred at about 5 months old. The larger breeds like the flemish giant mature more slowly and can be bred at about 9 months. If you have a rabbit you think may be pregnant, watch her closely and see if her stomach gets bigger or can sometimes see or feel the babies moving when in later pregnancy. She may also start carrying straw around in her mouth to build a nest in later pregnancy. gestation is 28 - 32 days give or take, so if no babies after that, you're safe.Can a rabbit fall pregnant at 4 mths old?
Actually rabbit can become pregnant as early as three months. Its not advisable to allow a rabbit to get pregnant at this age as a doe's body is not yet ready for riggers of a pregnancy. I'd wait until at least 8 months - 1 year for smaller breeds and 1 year for larger breeds.
yes but its not advisable, complications may occur(exmp: severe blood loss, miscarrige, death) but once and awhile come out alright
Yes, depending on the age, of course you need a male. But it is best to wai tlonger and you shoudl have them seperated by then if you do have a pair. the smaller the breed the sooner the can breed in general, not always.
