He does indeed and rabbits love sex, they have several litters of babies a year.

Incorrect, it is possible, though rare, for a female rabbit to drop an egg in which the DNA does not separate resulting in a self-fertilized egg. This creates a genetically identical copy of the mother. This process is known as Parthenogenesis.

Parthenogenesis does occur in many species, but does not occur naturally in rabbits, parthenogenesis is induced through electrical stimulation and is not naturally occurring (In rabbits)

How old can rabbits be to get pregnant?

The proper age for breeding on a female is 1 year and on a male it is around 6 months. Rabbits can have rabbits at around three months if they ar able to which I advise IS REALLY UNHEALTHY FOR THE DOE!


Do pregnant rabbits develop lumps under the chin?

The lump you are referring to is probably her dewlap. A dewlap is loose skin that often develops on the neck of the female rabbit. They are found mainly on female rabbits in certain breeds, the males are also allowed a small one. Its purpose is to give another area for the doe to pull fur from when she is making her nest for her kits.


What if a male rabbit gets on a 7 week old rabbit could this rabbit be pregnant?

It depends if the female is going through her 'menstrual' cycle at the time of mating. Also if either the male or female is spayed it is unlikely the female is pregnant. A female rabbit is basically 'in season' all the time. As far as a menstrual cycle goes, I don't know where you got that term. It is not a rabbit term. Sometimes breeding with the moon is your best bet for large litters.


What variations do rabbits have?

What is interseting about rabbits?

Rabbits are interesting because they are one of the few mammals that don't have a special time for breeding, but instead can get pregnant almost every time they breed. The female pulls hair from her chest and belly to make a soft nest for her babies, and takes care of them by hopping in for a very short period several times a day. Rabbits also come in many different sizes and colors, from very small dwarf rabbits to the large giant breeds.


Will rabbits build nest if not pregnant?

Yes, male and female rabbits have nipples, although they may be hard to find because they're very small under the fur; the nipples of a nursing female rabbit will be much larger and easier to find. Another word for nipple is "teat" but this word is usually only used to refer to the nipples of a nursing mother.

What happens to a small female dog who has gotten pregnant by a large male dog?

You make more dogs that probably won't find a forever home. Plus I think depending on the size difference your female could die from it.


Do female rabbits have nipples at 11 weeks old?

All rabbits, male and female, are born with nipples, but they're so small that you usually can't see them. If you can see your rabbit's nipples, that means she is pregnant or nursing; otherwise, it means the skin is irritated. If the irritation doesn't go away within a few days, you should go to the vet. See the related question below for details.

They breed like rabbits is this a hyperbole?

The term hyperbole is a figure of speech meant to exaggerate a point but is not meant to be taken literally. It is a more colourful way to express and emphasize an idea. Of course, nothing but a rabbit can technically breed like a rabbit. Female rabbits can become pregnant at any time, can give birth as often as every 31 days, and can literally become pregnant the day after giving birth. Litter size can be anywhere from 4 to 12 kits. So left unchecked rabbits can indeed breed like…well, rabbits. So yes, the phrase, "They breed like rabbits", is an example of hyperbole. It's another way to say that something can produce a large number of offspring in a small amount of time.
