No, at 12 to 16 weeks of age commercial rabbit breeds enter "puberty" and can become sexually active. It is not uncommon for siblings who are not sorted by gender by this time to breed and it can result in offspring. However, regardless of gender, rabbits will mount each other to display dominance.

It all depends on the quality of the rabbit. Pet quality rabbits can be sold at anywhere from$5 to $15. Show quality rabbits can be sold at anywhere from $15 to $100. Again, it all depends on the quality of the rabbit. Take into consideration any faults. Make sure you know the breed standard. Examine the fur, ears, legs, tail, teeth, head, body, and weight. Never underprice your rabbits, because then you will be cheating yourself. Never overprice your rabbits and try to sell to gullible people who don't know the breed standard. Also, you can charge a few dollars more for pedigreed rabbits you are selling as pets. All show rabbits should be pedigreed anyway.

What age are rabbits ready to breed?
Rabbits can breed as early as just a few months of age. 3 for males and 4-5 months for females. Although if you are breeding them intentionally you should wait until the female is at least one year of age. Rabbits can breed as young as 12 weeks however this is really not good for them. If you absolutely have to breed your rabbit it is best to wait until they have reached at least 1 year old first for females. Males become sexually mature much sooner and are able to breed at 12 weeks with no problems. Waiting to breed your does until they are a year old means you are risking them becoming too fat to conceive, storing fat around the fallopian tubes. Breeding your bucks at 12 weeks will stunt their growth. You should wait until your rabbits are at least 6 months old or have reached mature weight for their breed.
Are rabbits boring pets?
Absolutely not! Rabbits can be very entertaining, if you're willing to take the time to get to know them. You can breed rabbits for shows, or you can keep them as general pets. I've known quite a few house rabbits to do jumps and acrobatics! Try to give them a few toys to start with, like hanging food on a string or getting them a climbing log. Rabbits are very intelligent animals and can be known to do extraordinary things!! You can also have some "cuddle time" with them, which helps me relax before a competition or show!
