Help - boy or girl?

Sushi

I got my rabbit Sushi back in May and was told both by her previous owner and a vet that she was a girl. However, she's been spraying urine a lot and I've since noticed what I think are testicles? I've attached a picture so would really appreciate any help if anyone can confirm! I haven't been able to hold her for long enough to look at the area properly as she will only stay still when I'm holding her tight against and facing my chest.

Whether he/she is a boy or girl, it would be better to talk to a vet about getting him/her neutered

Thanks Richard, I’m planning on neutering and discussed this with our vet when we got her (had to wait til she was old enough).
 
Can't tell from the photo but it's usually the boys which spray urine but some females do it as well. If you can see what you think are testicles then he is ready for neutering. Some boys do look like girls until they get a bit older ie 12 weeks.
 
Hard to tell from the photo but there may be testicles visible there I think?? I would give your vets a call to discuss getting him rechecked and then castrated if a male :)
 
My bridge girl Cleo before spaying Sprayed her neutered husbun Rio and me all the time.Rio would be quietly bunloafing then get a faceful of pee,shook his old lugs and continued snoozing. Once spayed her hormones died down and this behaviour stoped.
