hi i dont know if ive put this in the right place but when can u find out the sex of baby bunnies and how lol there 4 weeks old on thur any tips would be great many thanx alison
 
Hi Alison,

I'd take them to the vet to be checked. Probably at about 8 weeks...unless someone can come do it at your house. I wouldn't move them at 4 weeks.

Was it an accidental litter, or planned? :)
 
lots of good advice already (I wouldnt' always recommed a vet for sexing unless its a expirenced one i've heard of a few wrongly sexed buns in my time) If the slit goes all the way down its a girl. You can sex them at four wks but it can be difficult just double check before they go to their new homes don't want any accidents.
