Hello..I have had my rabbits about a month..The store said my mini lop was a male 6 weeks old..Took them to a vet to have them sexed and the vet said I had2 female rabbits 6 months old...Took them to a different vet yesterday he told me that my white one was a female like we thought but that my blk mini lop was indeed a male..he showed me the difference between the 2..on Shadow his testicals had not dropped yet..the Doctor told me that they were both ok to be fixed...Plan on doing it sometime this week..so I'm doing some research on the internet about Spaying and Neutering of rabbits and I read that female rabbits should be spayed around 4-6months old and a male rabbit should NOT be neutered until his testicals have dropped..Now I am confused..the doctor said they were ok but I dont want to send him into have surgery if he is still to young..since I dont really know his true age and his testicals havnt dropped yet and that makes me think the original pet store was right in their estimation of his age at 6weeks old because they were right about him being a male?? Please help I'm confused and I dont want to do anything to Shadow that may harm him...
