One thing that I learned from this article that I didn’t know is that you must keep rabbits in separate cages because they are very territorial and will fight to defend their own space. If you are breeding rabbits it seems it is better to breed and older doe at the same time as a young doe in case there are a lot of baby bunnies, some of the extras can be given to the older doe to nurse because if the younger doe gets too stressed she might kill the babies.
