What are the dangers of keeping a pregnant female rabbit with the male?
You should never leave a male and female rabbit together, after she is bred he will continue to pester her for sex. She could get irritated and bite him even castrating him if she gets mad enough. Each rabbit needs their own space, they are very territorial. And if he is left in the cage with her when she has the babies he could, intentionally or unintentionally, kill the babies. Also she can breed again the same day she has the babies and that is not good for her, the babies she kindles or the babies she will then be carrying.

Do you have to remove the male rabbit from the cage after the female rabbit has given birth?
The buck (male rabbit) should not be near a doe (female rabbit) who is kindling or newborn kits (baby rabbits). The buck will get too excited and the doe will get overwraught. As he trys to rebreed her (rabbits are capable of rebreeding as soon as she kindles) and she tries to get away and/or protect the newborns they probably will both stomp the kits flat. Even in the wild the male rabbit is not welcome in the nest until babies start to come out to nibble on grasses.(about 2 to 3 weeks). In addition, if the male is stressed or has not been fed properly it will kill the kits.

When you put your male rabbit in with a female rabbit they mate but why when i put him in with a another certain female does she start jumping on him and not the other way round is she pregnant?
Rabbits are territorial and when you put a male in a female's cage, it is her space. Therefore it's better to put the doe in the buck's cage.
