Wow they look Cali and not a cross. I have Cali/NZW kits right now that are five weeks old . They have light grey ears and a light grey spot on the nose. My supposedly pure Cali kits were much darker. Of course if they weren't pure Cali, they are even more diluted now.
I guess they are a very pale grey. She's hardly got any color in the feet. The kits have grey feet, tails and noses but the buck was very dark and had all the normal Californian markings
I moved the doe and her kits to a larger cage and added a litterbox and put the nest box back in. 24 hours later she has not peed in the nest box or on the kits but has used the litter box. Yay! :weee

Rabbits are addicting :). I've added a few to my herd in the last month and yesterday my Californian doe gave birth to 8 kits in her first litter. Meet my New Zealand Red buck, Rusty, my Flemish Giant Californian cross, Ebony, and my Dutch Black Sasha and Pete. I love my bunnies!
Yay! Cookie gave birth this morning to at least 5 plump kits. There may be more in the nest box but I didn't want to disturb it too much. I'm a bunny grandma and lovin it :)
Just wanted to update on my sneezing bunny George. He still sneezes occasionally but it has been weeks and he has never had any nasal or eye discharge at any time. I think it must be an allergy. Eliminated the alfalfa hay but he eats Timothy hay every couple of days. He is back in closer...
