We have a Dutch pair, New Zealand White pair and a Flemish Giant pair. We have not had any Kits since June when my NZW had them. I keep them paired up in thier individual hutches all the time. When i was raising Rabbits years ago, We would of had Rabbits running everywhere.

            What is going on ?

It's most likely just too hot. Bucks go sterile in the summer for a while, plus if they're constantly trying to mate they dilute the amount of healthy sperm.

So, I need to seperate the Bucks and the Does for a few weeks and go from there.

I finally have babies, My Black & White Dutch (Oreo) had hers Yesterday,  My New Zeland Mix (Brownie) had hers Today and my Solid White New Zealand (Snowbelle)is due any day.
I got some 6'x12' Dog Kennels and I went around the bottom with 24" high hardware cloth. I have been keeping them in the kennels more than in thier hutches. I just have to move the kennels around every 2 days. They get plenty to eat naturally and plenty of exersize.
