I think we finally got 1 bred!

We, as in everyone around here with rabbits, have been having a awful time getting rabbits bred this fall. I finally had one that looked ready and the buck mounted, did his thing, and fell off. Its a doe I wasn't going to breed her since I don't like her but I've had no luck with the does I do like. Oh well, I'm crossing my fingers.

Wishing you luck! Hopefully the doe you don't like turns out to be the winner!

Good luck!

Thanks y'all. I don't know why its been so difficult here lately. I guess the weather.

We've had problem here in Texas too. All of does missed the first breeding of the fall and most of them missed the second breeding. Out of 7, I had 2 that actually bred. I hope they are all bred now.

Its not so much that the does are missing, the breedings aren't happening. You put the doe in the bucks cage, they groom each other and then nothing. They just sit next to each other and chat about the weather.

How old are your bucks and does?

That's years, right? Well, they should be plenty mature. How have the bucks been eating?

Everyone has been eating fine. The 3yr old buck has sired 5 litters, the 1yr old doe and buck are "newbys". Two of the other does have had 2 litters and the last doe has had 3 litters.
