How do you wean a rabbit?

They'll usually wean themselves. At some point, the mother will 'get fed up' of feeding them from her teats, and reject their attempts to suckle. The 'kits' will look for food elsewhere - usually trying the 'standard' rabbit food you provide.

Can you wean rabbits at 4 weeks due to birth of a new litter?

No, you can't wean rabbits at 4 weeks due to the birth of a new litter. A rabbit that's giving birth to a new litter when her last litter is only four weeks old is over-breeding. Breeding is hard on a rabbit's body; it takes a lot of energy to reproduce and raise babies. Over-breeding weakens the rabbit and leads to exhaustion, illness, etc. Responsible breeders give their rabbits plenty of time to recover before they breed them again. Baby rabbits wean between 4 and 6 weeks. Babies taken away from their mothers too early (like at 4 weeks) are at a higher risk of illness than those allowed to wean naturally.
