What Breeds are you raising?

[dbunni]

here's a suggestion for better pattern ... use a broken black Fench Lop. Don't worry about the ears, you can breed them out in one generation. The creation of the Giant Angora included a lop. upright ears will dominate. First litter you will have split. Take the ups and breed from there. Eat the rest! The body is closer (although not a mandolin style) and the size is good. You could also use an oversized Broken Blk NZ. But i think the FL would be better.

I'm about 2 hours N of Columbus.

Water bottles ... would use, but they weep ... water, friction, heat and wool create Felt! Even on the bunny!

Wasn't sure about your pix since you have NZs ... that's why I asked. Nice head.

wow thx for the pointers! I may look into getting a broken lop buck in the spring... Right now I need to focus on getting a good quality Flemish Buck everyone around me that has Flemish all seem to have Fawn... I would love to find a steal or gray!

My Flemish Giant just had a litter on Sat and one baby had spots so I'm hoping for a nice pattern once the fur comes in... provided I can get all the babies safe through this cold we are having! I've never had babies while the temps were in the teens but so far it all looks good they are warm and healthy!

I'm working on saving up for a barn next spring... If I can get it all set up (where I would have some nice shade and could add fans if needed) then I'm defiantly going to look you up! I've wanted Giant angora's for ages... but just haven't had a good enough set up to care for them...

Another question... once you trim their fur... just how much do you get? I'm curious about making yarn and such... and If I'm going to do this I want to at least have enough fur to make something out of... so how many bunnies would I need to do that?

I have two Mini Rex does though I have not yet started breeding or showing. Nether of them are show quality as one is a "musty" Red and the other is a Harliquin. But I would like to get some brokens in the future to breed and show.
