Erm... no very cute bunny though . Ask a vet or a vet nurse to sex your bunny for you.

Afraid not How old is he/she?
It's a good idea to get a new bunny checked over by a vet, they can make sure it's healthy and discuss things like neutering and vaccinations with you...and at the same time flip it over for a quick look at its whatnots to see if it's a girl or a boy.

Only a vet can really tell you. The bunny will also need to be vaccinated or will be at risk of contracting fatal diseases. I thought we already discussed this here: http://forums.rabbitrehome.org.uk/showthread.php?t=212047

Don't get him/her a friend until he/she's been neutered. He/she will be getting hormonal now, and would attack any other bun that comes into his/her space. Then you need to wait 6 weeks after the op (males can be fertile this long after the op) and it gives the hormones time to settle. Otherwise I fear you'll end up with an injured bun. Until he/she's been vaccinated it's not a good idea to introduce any other buns.

you definitely need to wait before getting another! then when he/she has been neutered/spayed, and recovered, then think about introducing another bunny.

Why are you thinking of getting a 'buddy' at the moment?

I would personally wait until he/she is well settled before getting a friend. Bonding bunnies can be quite tricky, and a lot has to be done first. Both bunnies should be fully vaccinated, wormed and neutered for at least 6 weeks or so before they are put together.
It can be easier to bond a male with a female, so you would need to know for definite before looking for a friend.
Some bunnies simply never get on no matter how much you try. Therefore it's better to look at adopting a rabbit from a rescue. The rescue will then offer to bond the bunnies for you, or, failing that, they will usually agree to take the bunny back if it doesn't work out to allow for you to try another bun.
If you get a bun too soon, especially before they're neutered, there is a large risk that they'll fall out even without being put in the same cage. Once this fallout is learned, they still wont get on even after they're neutered.
It's a lot to think about and to take on, I wouldn't rush in to anything.

Thats funny Lyn, i really think it looks like a boy from the pics
Please dont get your bunny a friend until you know his/her sex. Sadly, we cant tell just by looking at a photo, you need to look at the bunnies bits to know! If you get another bunny tomorrow, and its the opposite sex, god help you :? You'll have hundreds of rabbits before you know it. Please get your bunny to a vet! Generally the vet nurse will sex them for free or a very small charge

maybe she's a hermaphrodite bun....:lol:(following on from the thread a few days ago.)
It won't take much for the vet to sex him/her, and is really simple, so you can book her/him in for next week. Then you'll know!

They'll do it for free if she/he has her/his jabs at the same time!
