Okay that makes way more sense. Dwarf was her guess for his size. She just breeds to create pets for her grandchildren so she didn’t seem to mind. They kept the two tan rabbits for her grandkids from the litter and I got the other 6.
Oh my gosh! I hadn’t even raised the Dutch markings😂. One of her bothers had it too but I should’ve recognized it because my friends when I was growing up had one who was obviously named Oreo. So I’m sure she’s a little bit of everything. Up where we live most rabbits are sold as “meat”, California (if they have the colouring), or Flemish giant but I honestly doubt a single member of my herd is pure anything 🙄I think I would take anything she said with a horse-sized block of salt, because she clearly knows little about what she's doing and apparently doesn't care.
Your black doe's body profile could be "semi-arch" (she's not posed, so that may not actually be the case) and she does have good large ears, but that picture doesn't shout "Flemish Giant" at me - her head, especially, just doesn't get me there. She probably has a healthy dollop of Flemish in her, but I think "Flemish mix" is about as far as one can truthfully go, and that's a guess (that baby with the white on it is hers, sired by her brother, correct? That's Dutch marking, which shouldn't ever be seen in purebred Flemish).
They aren’t big enough ears yet but two of them have 20%lower weights than the average of the litter. So even if there’sa way to just mark those two that would be awesome
Okay here we go. They both got fed last night but are still smaller than their siblings. Those colours are supposed to be blue and orange but we’ll see how they look tonight.
