In between your rabbits back legs you will see 2 ball-shaped protuberances that have no fur on them: these are the testes. Sometimes they are hidden behind fur. Actually, these are the scrotums: the testes are inside the scrotums, and you can't actually see them.

Keep in mind that rabbits can draw their testes up into the body cavity so they are not always visible. This is an adaption that helps prevent injury while digging/fighting/running etc. Especially when a rabbit is frightened, he will pull his testes into his abdomen. You may still be able to locate the scrotums, but when they're empty they can be hard to find.

Also, baby rabbits are born with the testes in their abdomen, and they don't descend into the scrotums until they grow a little older (around 4 months of age, they are usually descended, but it can take up to 5 months).

What do rabbit genitals look like?

If you push down (with a slow, gentle motion) around your rabbit's genitals a boy's penis will look like a human pinkie finger with a circular dot in the middle, while the girl's vagina will look come up like a slanted triangle, almost like lipstick, and it will have a vertical slit in it. Also, you sometimes can find big lumps next to the boy's genitals and sometimes you can find nipples on the girl's tummy. However if these features cannot be found, you cannot conclude the gender one way or the other, only the presence of them can determine anything.

Does the male rabbit have the scrotum on top of its penis?

No, the male rabbit doesn't have the scrotum on top of his penis. Male rabbits have two scrotums located below the penis (closer to the anus), one right beside the other. In babies, the testes are in the rabbit's abdomen: they descend into the scrotum some time between 9-20 weeks. Adult male rabbits, when they're terrified, can also pull their testes back into the abdomen. A male rabbit who's been neutered won't have any scrotum because they'll have withered away. If your male rabbit has a lump above his penis, something is wrong. It could be a tumour, or maybe a parasite, or something else -- it's hard to say. You should bring the rabbit to the vet for treatment. See the related questions below for details.


How do you know which brand of rabbit food you should buy for your rabbit?

Look for rabbit food that is specifically formulated for your rabbit's age and breed. Choose a brand that lists high-quality ingredients like timothy hay, vegetables, and herbs as the main components. Consulting with a veterinarian can also help determine the best brand based on your rabbit's individual nutritional needs.
