Rabbit breeding question.

[RDchicken99]

Howdy! I was wondering if you could breed rabbits with the same parents but from different litters. I am planning to do line-breeding and know not to breed brother/sister pairings. So are different litters with the same parents considered cousins? Or are they still siblings? Thanks.

If they have the exact same parents then they are siblings. Think of it this way humans only have 1 child at a time (most of the time), if someone has one child and then later has another those children are siblings

Okay! I’ll keep that in mind. Thanks for the help.
