Seven Springs Homestead SWMO This is a personal blog of our homestead, Seven Springs Homestead SWMO. Here I will post the animals & our life on the farm.

We have Hereford pigs & many goats, chickens, rabbits & quail. We also have 4 male ducks & eventually hope to get female ducks.

🐰 BOY OR GIRL?! Let’s talk rabbit kits 👀

One of the most common questions we get is how to tell if a baby bunny is a buck or a doe and honestly, it can be confusing if you’ve never done it before!

At around 6 weeks old, it gets much easier 👇
✔️ Bucks (males) = round “O” shape that may pop out
✔️ Does (females) = slit “I” shape that stays flatter

We put together a simple visual guide to help you feel more confident checking your own kits 💛

✨ Pro tip: Compare multiple kits side-by-side—it clicks WAY faster that way!

If you’re ever unsure, don’t stress—double checking later is always a good idea 👍

Drop a 🐰 in the comments if you’ve ever struggled with this… we definitely did at first 😅

What a wonderful morning! ☀️ Yesterday afternoon, Geneva gave birth to two adorable kids, a buckling and a doeling, both naturally hornless - thank you, Brad! (Daddy buck) The little ones are already bringing joy, with the boy being a stunning black and the girl a beautiful buckskin.
