I think one of my felmale rabbits may be a boy. She/it is a lionhead and just turning one.

Put a TV remote control in the hutch. If it is strongly attracted to it, it's likely a male. Or---take it out in the country and get it thouroughly lost. If it stops and asks directions, it's a female.

Sure.....

How about stick it behind the wheel of a 5 speed, if it starts to hyperventilate it female.

That's a dominance thingy, BBH. They may even hurt each other if they are in heat. I've seen one doe rip another's ear open in an altercation. And that was only during a transport time from a seller to our house, before we could get them into separate cages.

Oh yeah, if she is in with another doe and is "ridding" her, that means it is time for separate cages!!
