Yes rabbits DO have "periods" so to speak. You will not necessarily know, but unlike humans, they have to become in "season" This is when they can mate. You will not notice when the rabbit/s bleed but they do, and the doe(female rabbit) will not stop getting in season, unless you get her spayed


No, rabbits DO NOT menstruate nor do they have a "heat" cycle. They are known as induced ovulators because they only ovulate after being bred. A female rabbit will accept a mate at almost any time.

Yes. However because they are such small animals, you wouldn't be able to notice.

No, Rabbits are virtually 'in season' 27 days out of the month of 30 days.

No, if they are bleeding then they could be very sick and need to see a vet.

no. Rabbits are polyesterus which means they do not come in to heat at a set time. Female rabbits ovulate after mating.

Nope!! They're only able to get pregnant when certain hormones are released. And that only happens when they're aroused.

Do bunnies menstruate?

Rabbits do not go in season, they are always in season (rabbits are induced ovulators). The only time female rabbits "bleed" is when they are giving birth, or if they are very ill (with an infection or cancer). If your rabbit is bleeding from the genitals (or anywhere, really), bring her to a vet with experience and knowledge in treating rabbits immediately. See the related questions below for help.
