fishfish 17 Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 i usually separate them for a bit till shes in heat,problem ive found is that the hobs bites on her neck will get realy sore and could get infected. Quote Link to post
Kay 3,709 Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 I would remove one of them , the jill may become depressed being pestered by him , you dont think he has already mated & she has taken do you ? Quote Link to post
gnipper 6,571 Posted February 28, 2008 Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 He might not leave her alone when she's been mated, also the jill might get stressed with him when she drops her kits and one of the parents could hurt/eat the kits. Always better off with two cages imo. Quote Link to post
whin 463 Posted February 28, 2008 Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 get him out of the cage untill shees full on heat ,no piont puting the animal through torture ,gettinng rag dolled abbout the cage not much fun for her Quote Link to post
Marky Dead Bunny 0 Posted February 29, 2008 Report Share Posted February 29, 2008 women!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The males do come into season slightly before the females. The big guy wont care and he'll just want his end away. Four of my females have already come into season but just last week there, i took them for the Jill jab as i dont want to breed this time. Seperate them and when she comes into season, put her back with the male. I usually leave them for about three days together just to make sure the procedure has worked then seperate them again. About 46 days later, you will have a we litter. Remember to remove the male after three days cause if you dont, when the babies arrive, you wont have them long cause he will munch them.

jazz_11 5 Posted February 29, 2008 Report Share Posted February 29, 2008 (edited) i seperated them its a 2 tier hutch so i just put a plank of wood over the ladder so they are completly seperated, when she comes into season i will let them be with eachother for 2-3 days and the seperate them again, im having second thought about the hob now i bought him for the jill so she wont be on her own and she gets used as a rag dole in return...... will they be able to live together at some point maybe after all the kits have gone... and they are both out of season..... .... any ideas anyone..... not in the best of moods.... feal sorry for the jill to be honest....

stubby 175 Posted February 29, 2008 Report Share Posted February 29, 2008 yes mate, once the breeding season is over and done with, they will live perfectly happy together, Quote Link to post
jazz_11 5 Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 ok thanks something to look forward to... thanks... is it a bad thing like lift the hob up and let him smell the jill through the cage because they can both smell each other without fighting, would you recomend this or would it just become a problem... sorry i am all new...

stubby 175 Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 they will smell each other, without having to see each other, it'll be a bit like the groom, waiting for his wedding night Quote Link to post
