Will the babies come out deformed, or will they have problems if i breed two different breeds like mini rex and something else?!
Answers:
There shouldn't be a problem as long as the two breeds of rabbits are similar in size, or the female is larger than the male. If you bred a large 5 lb male rabbit with a 3 lb female rabbit, the babies might get stuck. The female should be larger than the male.
They should not be deformed, as long as the "something else" is another breed of rabbit.
Depends on what you breed it to. Some rabbits are notorious for being difficult to kindle (delivering the babies). Large heads. Trust me, you don't want a stuck baby.
Get a good book like "Storey's Guide to Raising Rabbits" by Bob Bennet. He's the man. You'll like the book.
You could also talk to a local ARBA exhibitor/breeder or email one. Use the minirex website below to find a breeder or email the secretary. Or you could go to a rabbit show in your area and talk to exhibitors there. They'll be more than happy to help you out and answer your questions. Very friendly atmosphere there.
Possibly. You should read the responses on your previous question.
I am just curious as to why you would want to breed mutt rabbits.
there are so many abandoned rabbit that die, get killed by other animals and the lucky ones that get into a rescue.
there is no need to breed your rabbit.
answer No might not be deformed, but I would (if you insist on breeding) make sure that the Doe is larger than the Buck to avoid stuck kits and having your rabbit die in birth or an expensive C-section.
