Jemima is now four months old

how old do buns need to be before they can be spayed?

She is a French lop and already the size of a fully grown dwarf lop maybe bigger

opinions and vote please xxx

My vet won't spay until 6 months, but I know some do do earlier under the right circumstances.

Ask your vet, they should know when is best Some vets will not do it untill your bun is a certain age.

The three vets I am registered with will only spay at 6 months,and they will castrate at 5months or when plums fall.

ours will spay at 4 months or if they reach 1kg so I voted for that, however not reading your post properly you might need 2 more months on top of that for a giant as they do mature later.

Thanks for everyones replies, I had looked on the net and found that it said 4 months, but my vet wont operate until at least 5 months.

Jemima is displaying undesirable hormonal behaviour so need to know when we can book her in asap really!
