If you press enter after each picture that should make them go down.

As for gender, experienced breeders can tell early on, but you might have to wait until they are maybe 7-8 weeks. You might also be able to find someone to help you when they get older, such as a rabbit savvy vet, ora breeder in your area.

Generally the doys have a 'donut' and the girls have a slit. That probably doesn't help, but it might. I'm sure someone with more knowledge will poddle along in a bit to help more than I can :)
 
I fixed your pictures for you!

Sexing very young rabbits can be very hard as their genitals are just so small and at that age they look very similar. One of the best ways I've heard it described is how Pam says it: Taco for girl and donut for boy.

I would have a look at this section in the Rabbit101:

Should have some links to sites with pictures and instructions.

I agree with Aurora! The best way is what Pam says, it's amazing how easy it is if you keep that in mind! lol. :pBut you've got to be careful, when they are young it's easy to make mistakes.
 
Oh my goodness, Look at all that cuteness :inlove:

Ijust wanted to mention that cedar bedding can be dangerous for small animals. It can cause respiratory problems and damage to the liver.I'm not even sure why it's sold for bedding :?



 
That's okay, I didn't know when I first started keeping hamsters years ago that it wasn't really a good choice. Makes me mad that it's even sold for animal use.
