How old are they? They have to be at least 6 months, until they are sexually mature..

Rabbits can breed as young as three months butthey should not be bred untill they are 6 months old.I would keep themaway from the male,he needs a seperate cage.Crossbreed rabbits are veryhard to find homes for.Most people want purebred rabbits.Will they beokay if they are bred?complications sometimes occur during thebirth.bluebird
