My rabbit's testicles seem huge. Is this normal for a male rabbit?

Rabbit testicles tend to normally be quite big and hang low. This is usually not a problem, so no need to move the appointment up any earlier unless you see an increase in redness or injury to the area. I hope that helps and all is well with River.

Rabbits do usually have pretty long testicles, and testicular cancer is very uncommon in rabbits. I typically don’t neuter them unless they are spraying urine and the owners want it to stop, or if they will be cohabiting with females. It is definitely not wrong to neuter by any means, but the risk of testicular cancer is low. I hope this helps! Best of luck and thank you for using Pet Coach.

From the photos, I believe that what you are looking at are testicles and that Sundae is actually a male rabbit. Has a veterinarian examined him/her and sexed your rabbit to determine if it was male or female?

Yes. This is normal anatomy for a male rabbit. They can get pretty stinky though, so cleaning them occasionally if you start to notice a smell is a good idea. Just gently soak with warm water and cotton balls to clean. Thank you for using Pet Coach.

Thanks for reaching out about Kaju and including a photo. Some testicles are slower to descend than others so give it a few more weeks/months. After that, a retained testicle can be a problem, as if remains in the abdominal cavity can become neoplastic and will require surgical correction. As for deworming, it really depends on the parasite and the concentration load. Good luck.

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! The saggy nature of Leo's scrotum and testicles is just cosmetic and there is not medical worry. It is likely hereditary in nature. If you plan to neuter him the Vet can also fix the scrotum (scrotal ablation). Other wise there is nothing to do about it now. He does seem quite well endowed. If the testicles suddenly seem more enlarged then I would have him seen as he could have an infection, suffered trauma or if painful a torsion. I wish you the best

Oh goodness. This sounds like he is very painful and possibly even infected. I would highly encourage you to have him examined by your veterinarian. He may be in need of antibiotics and pain medication. Best of luck and I hope he improves soon. Thank you for using Pet Coach.
