hi i was wondering would a done female be ok to put in with a undone females and done male or will they start to fight?

and also if i breed my dwarfs with a lionhead dwarf what kind of babys will she have? :) :all-ears:
 
You can keep a colony with desexed rabbits and does. It may not be as easy as just putting them together - sometimes t is, sometimes they'll fight no matter what you do - but there's nothing that say that a desexed doe would be worse off than any other does.
A desexed buck may have a higher risk of getting in trouble with an unfixed buck than a doe would.

You can keep a buck with the does, it usually works. But you never know.

A group of rabbits need a lot of space and hideouts to break up chases and fights. Different levels are good too. Read about rabbit colonies :)

I'm not good with genetics but I figure you'll get dwarfs with a single mane gene, that may shed their mane with the molting. If the lionhead has a double gene.
True dwarfs may also give birth to ''peanuts'' which usually die the first couple of days. But stillborn or early dying kits are not too uncommon I guess in any breed.

How old are your does? Have they had kits before?

And out of curiosity - why are you concidering to breed them? For what purpose? :)

Welcome to RT, btw :)
 
my does are only 9 month if that they have started trying to get the bucks attenchon so guessing they are readdy and so i can sell them on and breed to get a breeding doe and buck lion head :)i already have one lion head and non form my first doe
