[iLuvMyLilBuns]

Hey everyone!!

I posted a topicand asked about sexing baby buns. I apprieciated all the help

I tried sexing them today and it's kinda hard! They are a little squirmy and their "parts" are kinda tiny They're only 17 days old! Here's a pic of each of them if any pros out there could help me out Sorry the pics are kinda bad :l

My little runt!:

His/her "parts": (I think this one is a boy??)

My big bun:

His/her "parts": (I think this one is a girl??)

What do you guys think? I'm stumped lol

It's alright if you guys have no idea cause they aren't the best pics but any suggestions would be soo great

Man I'm not sure if they are bad pics or if its almost too close. I kind of want to say the first is a girl and the second is a boy. Did you get to watch that video on YouTube? He shows it pretty accurately of what they look like

Sarah: Thanks for replying. Yes I did watch the video on youtube and it helped but I'm still not quite sure

I find the easiest way to tell is how far down the slit is. A girls will be a true vulva and slit almost all the way to the anus.

A boy shouldn't have a slit at all. It may take another month for you to really tell the difference. I say shouldn't because bucks can be born with a split penis. It is rare but not uncommon. I'd say wait another week or two and look again

I would be able to take a look for you, but these photos aren't clear enough to tell. If you can, try holding the rabbits while you have a friend or family member take the photo. It doesn't have to be super close up...taking it a little bit further away might help the camera focus better.
