I don't keep any of my rabbit together after they are 8 weeks of age. I'm surprised the doe (girl) hasn't hurt the buck (boy) before now as most of the time does won't tolerate any other rabbit in their cage after they reach sexual maturity. Take the buck out ASAP. I've never ran into the problem of will the buck eat the litter but the mom might eat the litter trying to protect them from the buck. Rabbits generally have babies between 28-31 days after mating. When it's time for her to have the babies you'll have to provide her with a box to have them in that is filled with hay, straw, or some kind of bedding NEVER use cedar as it will kill the rabbits but you can use pine shavings with no problem. The doe will pull hair also to use as bedding and as an insulator for the babies to keep warm and be safe in. If you don't have another cage to put the buck in find a friend who could take him or see if a breeder close to you would take him in until you get another cage, but whatever you choose to do get him out of her cage immediately.

i imagine same sex marriage could be allowed because there is not any genuine logical rationalization why they ought to not and as a heterosexual guy, it has easily no longer something to do with me, so who am I to assert that there could be a regulation that 2 human beings cant get married and feel free jointly even as probability is it may have just about no result on me? the in reality result i visit imagine of is my 2 gay friends can get married and the in reality issue i could experience is exhilaration (and perhaps some envy haha) that they stumbled on someone. so some distance because the announcement of Independence and structure, im no longer truly particular, besides the undeniable fact that the structure is continuously being replaced so probability is it may nonetheless be ok they could be allowed to serve openly contained in the protection stress because on the top of the day its no longer about gay or right now, its about having your squads again.
