Question Hi I am considering some bunnies as pets but am wondering...
can a group live together?
would they have to be spayed/neutered?
If they were going to have to be spayed/neutered would they all get along after I took them one by one to a vet to be spayed? would theybe able to live with each other right after they are spayed/neutered?
What would be the best combantaion males, females, a male & females or males & females?
Also how long do rabbits live on avrage... the ones I would be getting a dwarf crosses, I don't know what there crossed with... also at what age do they become sexualy mature so I know when to get them spayed/neutered?
Answer Hello,
Yes, a group can work.
It would be best that they be spayed/neutered, especially since you are considering dwarf mixes.
I would recommend getting all males if you want a group. After neutering they would need to be kept separate from teh group for a few days most likely. Dwarf females don't generally get along well with each other.
I can't recall the exact age that they become sexually mature, I would ask my vet about that.
