Hi,
Not sure if this is the right section to post this in but..
When I bought my rabbits about 3 months ago I was told they were both females even the vet i went to at first confirmed this.. But one started to hump the other and I thought nothing of it until I saw male genitals when trying to clean the rabbit! Iv taken them both to the vet and one is definitely male and the other seems to be pregnant. She started pulling her fur out yday and I'm now terrified. The pair are bonded so I'm not sure what I should do..? I've booked the male in to be neutered in a couple of days but iv been told that it's best to keep them seperate from now on, I have another hutch for the male to sleep in at night but I'm scared he might get really upset and depressed without the female.... Also can anyone give me advice of how to care for the pregnant female and if I do need a nesting box?
