They will breed regardless of being siblings.


Since I don't think you've done any research on rabbit breeding, you should really get them castrated so that you don't end up with babies. It is a big responsibility to take care of baby rabbits, so it would be best to castrate them.


They will be ready to mate at around 5-6 months old.


And it wouldn't usually affect the babies if the parents are siblings, but sometimes it may cause deformities (this isn't very common). However, if you keep in breeding the babies you will increase the chances of deformities.Help with brother and sister rabbit URGENT PLEASE?
Yes, they will mate. If the female has staked a claim on the cage and the male tries to mate with her, she will attack him. If they do mate, that is a bad thing. There will be deformities and diseases throughout the family line. Also, if the female gets pregnant, and you leave the male in the cage, they will attack each other, and the male with attack the babies.

if they are not castrated seperate them they will mate and the babies may be deformed animals dont care if they are related even mother and son or father and daughter





rabbits will breed anytime you'd better seperate them now


as sono as they are old enoguh to breed thats it
depends how old they are. and no, just cuz they're brother and sister, that won't stop them from mating. you should separate them as soon as possible or castrate the male. they can start breeding as early as 5 months old
Yes they will mate. If sibling rabbits mate, the kittens are rarely deformed but it can form future illnesses.





Personally, I'd get them castrated asap.
yeah i'd castrate them if you don't want a bunch of baby rabbits.
