Hazelnut is a he/she?

Young Bun
My rabbit went in for her spray.
I was told when I got the rabbit it was a boy.
But to me and my vet it looked like A girl.
Okey so she went in for the op - nothing there no girlie parts.
On closer inspction there was a small penis present nothing else.

So they are saying my rabbit is both a female and a male.

What?
Surely my bun is male? If no girlie bun bits and theres a male part present.

Is it possible my rabbit is neutered in a way the vet can't even tell?

Please advise me. Surely my bun can't be both sexes?
 
I would also question undescended testicles.

How old is the bunny? Breed? (I know those have already been asked).
 
Rabbit is a smallish bun, she is slightly bigger than my dutch.
Age wise she is a preloved.com bun - I was told a year so maybe 1-2 years old.
 
What can I do about this?

My vet charged me for a spray even though there was nothing taken out.

Three vets looked at her and all said shes not a girl or a boy.

As far as they are concerned she can't reproduce.

How can I find out if this is the problem? I don't want to loose my rabbit to cancer.

Im really worried. I thought today would be the end of the worry.

Have they noticed any deformities around her genitals? Did they have a look around inside?

Is it possible she has been previously spayed/neutered?

How is her behaviour? Does she exhibit hormonal behaviour?
 
I had to call my vet to say they the rabbits have all started eating and she is now saying my bunny is a neutered buck she thinks.
She admitted not knowing what a neutered boy looks like.

Can you guys help.
All that is visible is a penis according to the vet.
There are no tubes inside the rabbit to indicate a female.

Rabbit nips sometimes, thumps and grunts over food.
otherwise great to cuddle and generally pretty gentle.
never sprayed on anything.

Is possible because I took her from someone who had the bun dumped on them by a neighbour. So he knew nothing about the rabbit. But said it was male.
