FAQs

Do mixed-breed rabbits live longer than purebreds?

Yes, mixed-breed rabbits generally live longer than purebreds due to greater genetic diversity, which reduces the risk of inherited diseases. Purebreds often face breed-specific health issues that may shorten their lifespan, while mixed breeds benefit from a broader gene pool, making them typically healthier and more resilient when given proper care.

Can different rabbit breeds be mixed or crossbred?

Yes, different rabbit breeds can be mixed or crossbred, and this is commonly done both commercially and by hobbyists. Crossbreeding can combine desirable traits and improve genetic diversity, which may lead to healthier offspring. However, irresponsible breeding without consideration of genetics can cause health problems.

Where can I find mixed-breed rabbits for sale or adoption?

Mixed-breed rabbits can often be found through rabbit rescues, shelters, or private breeders. Choosing between adoption and buying from a breeder is important, as rescued rabbits may have health or behavioural issues from previous care, whereas reputable breeders prioritise genetics and health.

Does breed size affect rabbit lifespan?

Yes, rabbit breed size influences lifespan, with smaller breeds such as Netherland Dwarfs often living longer (around 7-12 years or more) compared to larger breeds like Flemish Giants, which tend to have shorter lifespans.
