My foster babies are now 9 weeks old. I was toldthat the Humane Society would be arranging forMiranda's spay"sometime in the next 3 weeks" about 3 1/2 weeks ago. ( It'sstipulated that any vet care for fostersmust be done throughthe Humane Society. The HRS often helps out. )
I'm sure the reason for the delay is financial. There is always ashortage of funds at the Humane Society and I'm afraid the bunniesaren't always given the highest priority.
I'm thinking of offering to pay for Miranda's spay, just to expedite the procedure.
Currently, Miranda is still housed with the babies. Thev've been movedinto a larger cage in the family room. The cage is a 2 by 5C&C which is connected to an xpen configured to 2.5' by 6 '.
They've been having a blast running figure eights around the cageandpen. I have noticed some mounting behavior both withMiranda and Madmartegan.
Must I separate them now?
I'm ashamed to say that I've still been unsuccessful in sexing the babies.
How critical is it to separate the sexes at this age?
