Answer 1

Actually, I've had does get bred a second time before they even had their first litter. It's rare, but it can happen. The way I know this is the rabbit would have one litter and then 2 weeks later the same rabbit had a 2nd litter. A rabbit's gestation period is 28-32 days so she had to conceive the 2nd litter while the first was still inside her.

As many of the other people said, you can breed the doe basically the minute after she has babies. Although, I don't recommend this. I recommend waiting till the babies are about ready to wean them away and you notice the doe getting mad at the babies when they try to milk. The doe will be ready and willing to be bred when you notice her getting mad at the babies. Plus this gives here a little bit of a breather before having her next litter. Having litters too close together can bring down the health of the doe. Sometimes I'll wait a week or two after she's had the babies weaned off her to let her recoup a little more. If you breed her right after she has babies, it won't give her any time to recoup. The only time you should have the doe in with the buck is when you are breeding them and that should only take a minute or two. Always take the doe to the buck's pen and never take the buck to the doe's pen. If you take the buck to the doe's pen, he will spend his time "marking" the pen by rubbing his chin around it and leaving his scent there. He already has his scent marked in his own pen, so that keeps his focus on breeding and not marking the pen.

I've been raising and showing rabbits for 24 years and normally keep a heard of around 150-200 rabbits.

Rabbits can have babies every thirty days. That means that the day your rabbit gives birth she can become pregnant. However I reccomend waiting 7 months before breeding her or you not only jeopordize her health as well as her babies. She needs all her energy to care for the first litter and time to get her nutrients back. If she has another litter right away there is a possibility she will ignore the first litter and only care for the new one.

As soon as she wants to... :-) My female rabbit got pregnant the day after, and 29 days later had 4 more babies.. After we paid our vet to tell us we had two male rabbits! (He was apparently feeling fetal bunnies). And we had them separated by chicken wire by then, too. Where there's a will there's a way. Have you heard the saying.... breed like rabbits? I wouldn't let the mom in her run unless she could get back to the babies at anytime she wanted to. She would be the best judge of how long the babies should be left alone. I would worry they would get chilled, but would trust mom's judgement. My rabbit didn't leave the nest long at all.

When you can't get pregnant, and things look good from the outside, it can be extremely frustrating. Anyway this is a great method to get pregnant: https://tr.im/sQNNe
The first thing to consider is how long have you been trying. About 80% of couples will get pregnant after six months of trying, and about 90% will be pregnant after 12 months of trying to get pregnant

Now everyone can cure infertility using this natural remedy http://pregnancyhelps.info
infertility can run in the family and one of the first things the doctor asks you when you go to a fertility clinic is your family history regarding cases of infertility or other reproductive issues.
If infertility is caused by genetic disorder then it's not unusual that one of the kids (your mom) doesn't have it and another does (your aunt).
two months of trying is still to early to be concerned about the fact that you might be infertile and it's also quite early to go to a fertility specialist. Go to a regular Obgyb to get a closer insight and see what ways there are are to improve your fertility rate.
Also remove alcohol, caffeine and cigarettes from your life because they might influence your chances too. Stress is also a risk factor when it comes to infertility.

Answer 7

Right after the rabbit has given birth and cleaned the babies you can breed her again. Make sure that she is done giving birth before you put her with the buck (male rabbit). DO NOT put the buck in the pen with her. Put her in his pen, he will kill and might eat the babies.

Answer 8

If you don't remove the male from the female, she can get pregnant within minutes of giving birth. Thechnically she *can* spend time away from her babies, but her babies can't really spend time away from her. Remove the father, and keep her with her kittens, for warmth, nutrition, and protection. Also, they need to get to know each other.
