baby rabbit and mom housing

Question
hello,
i have a mother rabbit who has 3 baby's. 2 boy's and a girl. but i only have three cages. should i keep the bothers together. or the mom and daughter?

Answer
Hello,
It would be most favored to separate all of them as soon as you can. For the time being, until you can get a 4th cage, I would keep the mom and daughter together and separate the two boys. Boys will start to fight when they get older if kept together, and a girl and boy in the same cage can mean babies sooner than what most people think. Rabbits can become sexually mature as early as 3 months. So your best bet is to do like I suggested and keep the mom and girl together just until you get another pen. Mom and daughter may even start to fight once the baby gets older and starts trying to compete for dominance.
hope this helps.
