I bought my bunnies from a lady who didn't mean to have a litter, she thought the male was neutered. Anyway- she wasn't sure if they were boys or girls but thought they were male. How can I tell at 9 weeks?

i turned my boy upside down and had a look :lol: he'd been sexed as a boy but i wanted to make sure. i managed to get his, ahem, willy to 'pop' out so i knew. i did this at 9 weeks quite easily. i'm sure there are threads on here but i'm sure someone who is very experienced at sexing will answer for you soon x

Well I looked and I looked up pictures and I definitely couldn't tell the difference. One of them definitely seems to be female but the other one is questionable.

I have only just learnt (out of necessity) how to sex buns.
You can get things to "pop out" for both. For girls it is like a triangle with a slit that goes from the center up and a boy just has a dot in the middle.
Thats how I look at anyway!

The thing what poped out could also be the vulva so it would be better to get a vet nurse to check to be on the safe side.

the boys bits will be a circle and the girls a slit,if you press on between the bits and the anus you will get a better look.
