In different feeding and management conditions, different varieties of rabbits, different individuals, there are certain differences in sexual maturity sooner or later. Small breeds of female rabbits 3. 5-4 months old, male rabbits 4-4. 5 months old, that is, sexual maturity. Large and medium-sized varieties are later, medium-sized 4. 5-5. 5 months old, the large type reached sexual maturity at the age of 6-7 months. When newborn rabbits grow and develop to a certain age, sperm with fertilization ability can be produced in the testis of male rabbits, and eggs that can combine with sperm of male rabbits can be produced in the ovaries of female rabbits, which is called sexual maturity. The rabbits matured early and showed estrus at the age of 4-5 months. The rabbits who have just entered the stage of sexual maturity are in a vigorous period of growth and development, and their weight and size have not yet reached the standard, so do not rush to mating. Early mating is disadvantageous to the growth and development of the rabbit itself. The newborn rabbit is small and the survival rate is low. Moreover, the utilization life of the female rabbit is short, and it is easy to give birth early and senile early.
