How old are rabbits before the start mateing?

Rabbits can start mating as young as 4 months old for both females (does) and males (bucks).

However, it's important to remember:

* This is a general guideline. Some rabbits may mature earlier or later.

* Breeding rabbits too young can be harmful. Their bodies might not be fully developed, leading to health problems for both the mother and offspring.

* Responsible breeders typically wait until rabbits are at least 6 months old. This allows them to reach their full physical potential and ensures healthy litters.

It's crucial to consult with a veterinarian or experienced rabbit breeder to determine the best time to start breeding your rabbits.
