the first time we thought that she was pregnant because she made a nest and put her hair in it but she wasn't.

Now she is making a nest and putting her hair in it and the male is helping making the nest.

So is my rabbit pregnant

  1. is your rabbit spayed and is he neutured?  if not then yes she will be pregnant! >.<  I would remove the buck (male) straight away! Because as soon as she has given birth  he can make her pregnant again! then you will have two rabbits litters on your hand and once they are 12 weeks old they are capible of breeding, so they will need to be seprerated into male and female groups.

    i really hope your female is spayed, there are so many rabbits in rescue centres around the world from unwanted litters.

  2. Why don't you get them both neutered instead of breeding?

  3. Well, it's not uncommon for a doe to make a nest and line it with her fur even if she isn't expecting. Often it's called a 'phantom' pregnancy. But, if you have a mature buck and doe together of course a real pregnancy is very possible and you might expect babies within the next 3-4 weeks.  

    To tell if she is pregnant takes a very experienced touch, and if not done correctly can harm the unborn bunns. The best thing to do is separate them and wait.

    Do move Mr Buck to a cage of his own because Mrs Doe will be cranky and it is likely that they will fight which may injure them or the babies.

    Unless you want them to have bunnies, and already have homes lined up for the babies,  they should be separated of course.  If they are pets, they should be spayed/neutered.  It is healthier for them, they will get along better and they will make better pets.

    Enjoy and good luck !
