Note:
So short math time. Let's say around 300 children is a normal, common amout to have for a rabbit. That would mean that Bonnie herself has 299 siblings, who also possibli have their own children, giving Judy a maximum of 90.000 cousins beside her own siblings. However Grandpa Otto Hopps, who is according to a prop in the movie is Bonnie's grandfather had a birthday celebration which was attended by ALL his grandchildren and grand-grandchildren, a total of 1100 hopps rabbits related to him. A little calculation later I figured that the average number of children per parent should be between 14-17 for this 1100 to realisticly add up, if we don't assume that Bonnie and Stu have hundred times more children than anyone else in the Hopps family tree.

So my conclusion can only be that Judy shouldn't have over 300 actual siblings, but lives with her cousins, nieces, nephew, uncles and aunts in the same burrow who all count as her "Brothers and Sisters". It's a more realistic concept for me than the idea that Bonnie gave birth to hundreds of rabbits. It's probably not how Disney intended it to be as the insane size of a rabbit family is an intended "rabbits are good at multiplying" joke, but I will go with this headcanon for the minute even if it might be disproven later by the creators in some form, because I like the idea of a Zootopia that has a little more realistic system in it instead of just jokes and animal stereotypes.
