Yes, it is possible to breed a Dutch rabbit with a dwarf rabbit as they are both domestic rabbit breeds. However, it's important to consider the potential health risks and size differences between the two breeds before breeding them.

Wild rabbits generally know when it's safe to have their babies. If wild rabbits are having babies in the winter, that probably means they're surviving; if they aren't having babies in the winter, that probably means they wouldn't survive if they did.
Pet rabbits need to be kept safe and warm. They especially need to be kept dry, with good shelter from rain and snow. If the temperature drops below 50 degrees Fahrenheit (or 10 Celsius), they need a shelter that keeps them warm. See the question below about temperature for details.
In colder weather, rabbits use more energy, and because breeding takes a lot of energy too, winter isn't a good time to breed your rabbits. If you have baby rabbits in the winter, bring them inside with the nursing mom. See the related link below for more info.
Theoretically, a female rabbit can produce a litter of babies every six weeks ! Which is why it's always a good idea to keep males and females separate unless you plan to breed them !
well you have too make sure you have one in your garden and then feed it tip bits the rabbit will then slowly get less timid.
Yes, you can breed any breed of rabbit to any other breed, but it is not recommended. If you plan on cross breeding, always ensure the doe is bigger than the buck, or that they are about the same size. A very large buck bred to a dwarf doe can lead to large kits which the doe may have trouble kindling and can result in the kits or the mother dying.
No, but they will "play" mate.
Male rabbits can starting mating at about 7 months of age.
about half a coffie cup full.
WillowArcane here If the mother has died, feed the kits with an eye dropper and lukewarm baby food such as carrots, peas and applesauce frequently. They will let you know if they don't want anymore. Be sure to take them to a vet to ensure they're healthy.
This is usually not an immediate health risk to the mother, and typically labor will begin spontaneously within two weeks or so.
If the mother doesn't want to wait, or if labor hasn't started within two weeks, doctors can induce labor to expel the dead fetus. (Doctors don't like to wait much longer than that because after two weeks there's a risk the mother will develop blood clotting problems.)
She feeds them milk for the first 6 to 8 weeks and teaches them to eat solid food by them watching her eat.
Rabbit mothers nurse their babies for approximately 5 minutes a day. They will be in the nest or nest box early in the morning and then again in the evening. The milk is very rich and the babies "fill up" to capacity within minutes. Mother rabbits do not "sit" on the babies to keep them warm as do some mammals and birds. They build a nest with fur and grasses which helps to keep the babies warm in between feedings.
your bunny probably finds it harder to drink out of the water bottle, maybe its to low or too high, if its adjusted to th rabbits height already and still wont drink from it, try filling a small bowl with water and see if that works, or get one of those tiny cat bowls that comes with the jug ontop that keeps filling the bowl each time its empties, less for work u too!
i have a rabbit that does the same thing, and we found this worked, but if it doesnt try going to a vet and see if maybe your bunny is sick or something?
My dogs found a rabbits nest today, one of my dogs killed a baby rabbit (they are hunter dogs) and the other is still alive. I actually don't know/am not sure if it is alive. How do i see if the rabbit is still alive?
But i put an "x" over the nest to see if the mother will come again. What do i do if the poor thing is still alive and the mother abandons the baby rabbit?
Really, they can have as many as 1-14 babies in a litter. Normally they have about 6, though.
Well, most baby birds respond immediately to even the lightest touch or vibration. To them, any signal means food.
Are you giving him enough water. Is his cage clean. You need to make sure all conditions are good for the rabbit. Is he cool enough. Rabbits natural habitat is under the ground where it is cool. Try these things and see if bunnie feels better.
Its fine to breed your doe back after her babies are two weeks old . but it is also good to give them a break down time too. which most people do in the winter time. :)
Female rabbit most of the time have their babbies on the 30th day. Most breeder say put the nestbox in the 27th day.
It is to continue to line her nest for her kits.
Yes, a rabbit can build a nest without being pregnant. Usually false pregnancies cause this, where the doe believes she is pregnant and the body goes through the motions of pregnancy (i.e. eats more, builds a nest, can become aggressive, etc.).
You may also notice a very crude version of a nest by either bucks or does during a heavy molt. If the rabbit sleeps in one spot and already has a "bed" made, while the fur is being molted out it can get caught within the bed and look like a very crude nest. *Note: This is not actually a rabbit making a nest, but can be mistaken as such*
You give her a nest and wait. Leave her in the pen for 4-5 days
yes, they will drink any as long as its not warm as in heated,they will probably only prefer for it to go up to the suns temp when the sun heats it up
A rabbits offspring means the rabbits babies. Offspring would mean it's children.
