my rabbit who i think is a girl might be pregnant....she has a big stomach compared to when we first got her. I let her play with my cousin's male rabbit. she has become very aggresive and won't let me hold her and when i do she jumps off. and she also keeps biting me....so is my rabbit pregnant and what should i do if she is?

Check the Vet's! You should immediantly! If your rabbit is not pregnant there might be something wrong with her! Make sure you check the Vet's first, but to my belief, i think you rabbit is pregnant. Congrats you got some grandrabbits.

You really should know what sex your rabbit is! If you don't, get someone who knows how to check to tell you.
If the rabbit "played" with your cousins rabbit more than 31 days ago (rabbit gestation), she is not pregnant. She's either eating too much or has another problem. Get her checked by a vet.
If it was less than 31 days, give her a box to make a nest in, fill it with straw or hay, and give her time. If she is expecting, she will take it from there.
Rabbits do not have a "HEAT" like dogs or cats. They are "on-demand ovulators", meaning they ovulate due to the stimulation of being mounted and bred. They can be bred 17 out of 20 days...
Be prepared for the babies, let her nurse and raise them for 6 weeks. Then seperate them, find them good homes and got your DOE spayed, so this doesn't happen again.

can i ask what you're doing with those rabbits for them to get pregnant and that i'm hoping your no longer breeding them, sorry if i sound nasty yet who buys rabbits recently and alot of them finally end up chucked out and bypass to animal shelters. I actual have 4 rabbits yet had 9 all mutually each and every of a similar time interior final year, i made a mistake and by no ability lower back. i admire my rabbits father 2 sons and a daughter and basically dad is fastened so iv have been given to seperate all of them using fact male and men combat which i want them fastened and that i cant placed the daughter along with her brothers using fact i dont want anymore bunnys its no longer honest and sister and brother is so incorrect. i think of if a million is pregnant and the different is doing her behaviour then she is likewise pregnant. Rabbits are annoying artwork and people who get them think of its basically a rabbit basically who will devour poo sleep ordinary to seem after, thats why people dont want them.

best get the vet to check.
there could be many reasons behind the big stomach. she could just simply be putting on weight, she could have bloat or something else maybe wrong with her. a key to does being pregnant is that they will make a nest in her hutch. she will pull out fur and make a nest for her babies.
you really shouldnt let rabbits ''play''with each other unless they are bonded and living together properly, without the bonding process you could be in for a scrap on ya hands and also the risk as you well know of a unwanted litter.

She might be pregnant but was she in heat when you let her play with the male rabbit....? If she was then she might be. She is going to be aggressive if pregnant because she wants to protect her babies even if they are inside her. You also might be hurting her tummy which is hurting the babies. Just take her to the vet and get and ultrasound for her.
