I need some help sexing this litter. I lost a little confidence after mis-sexing a kit from my last litter (I said was male and the vet says is female). They are six week old Holland lops. Sorry for the video...I had a child photographer šŸ˜…. TIA!

first off you are not pulling appropriately to tell easy. Thumb on the top, finger on the bottom and pull apart top to bottom.

From what I could see not sure (possible doe), buck, doe, doe. DO NOT feel bad about miss-sexing. It will happen more than once as you go along your rabbit journey...and oddly enough... sometimes vets make mistakes too! :)

I will always remember going to a rabbit show with MATURE meat rabbits. Meat rabbit are mind-numbingly easy to sex in my opinion. Three shows. Two shows a doe one against my rabbit, the last show that very same doe was DQ'd for being a buck. So this mature rabbit passed TWO experienced judges as a doe, and the third show failed as being a buck and it was VERY obvious it was a buck. The owner was delighted as he wanted a buck out of those lines.
