Rabbits & guinea pigs should not be housed together? Guinea pigs have different diet requirements then rabbits & i believe there is a disease (cant remember the name of it) passed from the rabbit to the gp. Also a rabbit can cause harmor even kill a gp.

I hope you have homes lined up for the baby rabbits as these are themost common long stay pet in rescues ?

yes I have homes lined up already.
My rabbit will be neutured as soon as the bunnies go to their new homes as she was already pregnant when she came to me.

but earlier you said this:

I looked in when he was making the nosies and found that since I maked my buck with my doe he has been attempting to mate with our male guineapig!
Please don't lie - a lot of people do this at first - even I am guilty of it with mice. I'm not going to yell at you for doing it - and if anyone else does, ignore them - but please, now take the advice given and learn from mistakes - it is definately NOT good to breed from any animal with unknown background - and that goes for everyone here who just breeds rabbits etc from petshop stock.

I have 3 does and 1 buck one was pregant from a rescue and the other pregant one was acidentally when i put them in the run together not thinking when i cleaned them all out and they mated.
