6months to neuter in Italy??

My babies need the chop so we don't have any extra babies and also for health etc. They are 12 weeks old and i've had to separate them this week which they are really sad about. I live in Italy now and they won't neuter any rabbits under the age of 6 months, is this too long to keep them separated? I know there isn't really any other option but they look so confused and lonely (they are brother and sister). Any tips or advice to cheer them up or any knowledge on neutering would be greatly appreciated :D
 
I had to split a brother and sister up at 12 weeks, she missed him very much, he managed. I wanted to wait until the girl was about 6 months before I had her neutered so when the time came round they both went for their ops on the same day. After Bella had her stitches removed I then put them together in a run and after a little bit of chasing by him they were fine. They are still very happy, so good luck with your two.
