Help! I have 3 rabbits all of which are supposed to be girls but I just found some bunnies that didn’t make it. I am trying to figure out who is the male. I have only been able to get pics of two. Working on the 3rd. Can someone help me figure out the sex of these two bunnies??

You need to push a little harder to be able to tell for sure, but I believe 2 is a girl. I have no idea about 1.

I agree that the second pic definitely looks like a girl. The first looks like it could be a boy but it is hard to tell for sure. This article on telling the gender of rabbits also has some advice that could be helpful! Best of luck! ❤

Feel for his testicles. There should be a bump just near his back legs one either side of the bit you have photographed. We could feel our boy buns balls at about 3 months. Once they see a girl it’s very very clear coz you can see a big red pointer. I’m not trying to be rude but it’s very obvious.

To see when they are 3 months if they have a slit or a cross is tricky I think. So sorry to be blunt, but we got our boy at 3 months and even then he had a testicle on the inside of each hind leg that we could feel (humans have all of their male equipment very close together, make rabbits bits are more “spread out”). Even before their testicles become very visible /descend you can feel a little lump on each side close to the back of their under body/ tummy, that the girls don’t have. Our boy is neatly 5 months old now and he won’t weigh more than 1.5kg. His testicles are each about the size and shape of a small mandarin segment and his penis, when he is in the mood is maybe nearly 4-5cm long.
They all hump each other for dominance so you can’t assume that this is a sign, coz our girl does it to her brother.
