I think it is 6, probably evern 8 weeks to be on the safe side. Will you be getting your female spayed when she is old enough as it might be better to wait until then.

It would be safest to wait until 6-8 weeks after she is spayed because otherwise you risk fights when her hormones arrive. If you choose to risk it, then you have to wait 6-8 weeks after his neuter, but always have a plan for if you need to separate them.
