I am out of Ideas and would like some advice.
I have 4 NZW does, a NZW buck and a Beveren Buck. I have had rabbits in the past and never had any difficulty with breeding. Now my rabbits won't breed. I put the doe in the bucks cage and they just snuggle up with no action. I have replaced one of the bucks already but still do not have any results. They are all about 7 months old and should be active. Is it possible this is a nutritional problem? Should I replace my bucks? We had a very hot summer. Is it possible this is temporary heat sterility and they will recover? It has been cool now for over a month.
I welcome any input.
