proper22 5 Posted November 2, 2010 Report Share Posted November 2, 2010 I'd say do it on size and there maturity not really set age although age is linked to these things. If there big enough (which yours I would say are) and aren't mega playful then YES start them on small buries. But if they always fanny about eg: jump and skip when out the hutch then its best to wait a bit for them to grow up ....... for example mate i've got two sisters from this year one of them was bigger as she was more dominant and more fiesty so i stated working her earlier and shes coming on nicely.. atb with them mate Ben Quote Link to post
