I NEED HElP

[Chick Chicken Egg Eater23]

I have a buck rabbit that is the same breed as my doe but when he goes to breed her he misses every time, is there anyway I can help prevent this??

but he is a bit smaller than her

Get another buck?

Size is not the issue. If the doe is cooperating and there aren't any mechanical problems, even a buck that is much smaller won't miss.

hmm it must be the doe then

Im thinking about it but he is a real pretty buck and so is the doe

Welcome to backyard chickens. Some members here have rabbits too. FYI, We have a sister site at Backyardherd.com, you'll find a lot of rabbit folks there.

but she might have a litter, I have noticed some looses hair on her hind legs, could be shedding but dont think they would shed in the middle of winter

Most rabbits shed to some degree year-round; the loose hair on her legs doesn't mean anything more than that she could stand some grooming.

yes, but I had a dutch rabbit do that one time asked a person and they said could be pregnant. Thought she was just shedding and a couple of days later had 8 bunnies
