Essential Rabbit Breeding Guidelines
Follow these expert-recommended practices for healthy, ethical rabbit breeding
Pre-Breeding Health Check
Ensure both rabbits are healthy, check teeth for malocclusion, verify proper body condition, and screen for any signs of disease.
Optimal Breeding Age
Small breeds: 4-5 months, medium/large breeds: 5-6 months, giant breeds: 8-9 months. Never breed before sexual maturity.
Responsible Breeding Schedule
Allow 35-42 days between litters for doe recovery. Avoid overbreeding to maintain rabbit health and longevity.
Temperature Considerations
Avoid breeding in extreme heat (>85°F) as it can cause temporary sterility in bucks. Provide cool shelter in summer.
Genetic Health Screening
Never breed rabbits with congenital faults, malocclusion, or hereditary diseases. Select for good temperament and health.
Foster Care System
Breed multiple does together to enable fostering between litters, improving kit survival rates for large litters.
