Baby bunny doe/buck separation?

[mommyof3]

So with the 7 babies I have when would i need to separate them so we dont have breeding going on??? Right now they are 5 days old and with Mom. I was thinking 4-5 weeks old?

At 4-5 weeks they still need to be with their mother. They should not be weaned until 6-8 weeks. After that, they can be separated from mom. You can put them into groups based on sex. They should be separated by sex no later than 12 weeks to be safe, but any time between 8 and 12 weeks is good.

Agree, they can stay with Mom until their about 8-10 weeks old. By 12 weeks, just to be safe, separate the boys to another cage. The girls could stay with Mom longer, if they're getting along and have plenty of room.

All the babies are spoken for and are going to new homes at 8-9 weeks Thanks guys!

:biggrin2:Glad to hear they are placed. Was gonna say before 12 weeks, but it's a moot point now. Remember, we will need to see more pics.
