During the female rabbit’s heat, place her in the male’s cage; once he smells her, he will also come into heat, actively chase her, mount her, and begin mating. When the male slides off the female, mating is complete – then take the female out, lift her hindquarters, and gently pat her rear to prevent semen loss.

If the female does not accept mating for a long time, the owner can force mating: hold the female, lift her lower abdomen and raise the hindquarters, fix her tail with the index and middle fingers to expose the vulva, and let the male mount.
