8 HOURS?
Dude. I've known rabbit breeders who told me one of them have killed the
others, if left too long in there. Generally leave 'em in there long enough
for the male to fall over; generally the female doesn't want to be touched,
unless she's red (checking the sex every day will discover this).
Does don't want to breed, *all* the time. Or maybe mine were nuns...
