The birds and the bees

So what is a good age to talk to your children about the birds and the bees? I am not sure, but don't think I am ready to talk to any of my kids yet. Well JT might know more than I think already or then again maybe not. He has his pet rabbit Tyler who he loves so at school he checks out every book he can find on rabbits. Well most of them have a section on mating them. He knows mating means they end up with babies and he knows that you have to have a boy and a girl, not sure if he know much more than that (I hope not). Anyways... this past Sunday a friend of his was coming over and he wanted to bring his pet rabbit Daisy so the rabbits could have a playdate. I said as long as his parents knew our rabbit was a boy and his was a girl and they didn't care. They said ok. So here are some pictures of Tyler (our rabbit the grey one) and their rabbit Daisy (the black and white one).

The boys put them in our yard pen together and when I walked outside they said Tyler keeps trying to get on top of Daisy. I said if you see that knock him off, they said why? I said because they are trying to make babies and both of the boys looked at me and said we want them to. These crazy boys think they will be uncles if their rabbits have babies together. Kind of funny. They got bored with it and ended up going off and playing so we may (or JT's friend I should say) may be having baby rabbits soon.
