Females and males are mature enough to breed when they are six to seven months old. But please, consider adopting a rabbit from your local animal shelter or humane society!

Holland Lops have the typical lifespan of other breeds... about 10 to 12 years. However, if you'd like your rabbit to live a long healthy life like this, they will need to be spayed/neutered to prevent cancer and health problems. If not neutered, your rabbit will live an average of 4 years.

disclaimer: The word "mature" can mean different things. Do you mean at what age can rabbits reproduce? Or at what age the rabbit should transition from a juvenile to adult rabbit?

first answer: It depends on the breed. Larger breeds (like Flemish Giants, English Spots, and New Zealand Whites) become mature at about 8 months. Smaller breeds (Holland Lops, Jersey Woolys, and Polish) become mature at about 3-4 months.
