Inbreeding question

tomorrow264 Jul 12, 2009 10:17 AM

I got two bunnies a couple months ago. The person I got them from told me they were both female. Well yesterday while clipping their nails I found out that one is in fact a male. They turn 4 months old on the 25th. What are the odds that my female is already pregnant? And if she is what are the chances that there might be something wrong with the babies since they are siblings? Thank you.

I would recommend finding an exotics vet and getting the male neutered for sure, and ideally the female spayed. The male will start spraying urine, and neutering can help deter that. As for the odds of something being wrong with the babies, no idea. Best to get them spayed and neutered to avoid babies, and prevent future litters.
