I got two babie bunnies (a male and female) in April. I am not sure how old they were but old enough to be given away. I was hoping that they wouldn't have babies until next April but my mom says maybe they will this fall.

The age at which a rabbit can be bred depends on the size of the breed and the sex of the rabbit. In small breed rabbits the doe is normally ready to mate when she is 5 months old, and a buck is ready at 6 months. In medium breed rabbits the doe is ready to breed when she is 6 months old and the buck at 7 months. In large breed rabbits the doe is ready at 8 months and the buck is ready at 9 months.
Rabbits do not ovulate on a regular cycle, as a result they do not actually go into heat. The mating of the rabbit will cause the doe to produce the eggs necessary for fertilization, usually 10-13 hours after breeding has occurred. Although the does has no actual heat cycle, she will only accept the buck in about 12 out of every 14 days . When she is ready to breed her vent area will be a dark pink, red or purple.

If you got them in April they should be able to have babies by fall. Normally, it's best to wait till a rabbit is 6-8 months old at least before you breed them. The gestation period of a rabbits is only 30 days. Before you breed your rabbits make sure that you are willing to feed them through winter if you have them caged outside. Watering and cleaning cages are much more difficult in the winter if your rabbits are housed outside. I think it is fine for people to breed rabbits as long as they are willing to care of them properly.

Be a responsible pet owner and get them fixed. The pregnancy period for a rabbit is about 30 days. They can start mating around three or four months old. http://www.rabbit.org

Rabbits have a thirty day pregnancy, so yes.
