What colors?!?!

[hollandloplover]

I have some 3 and a half wk old Holland lops. Their mom is a broken tort i think. And the dad is a BEW. I just need help determing the colors for the babies!

Broken Blue? It looks chestnut in the pic but in person it is a darkish gray color.

Solid black tort?

Broken tort? Does it have enough color???

Mom: Mocha latte Broken tort? Or broken black tort?

One proud dad! Joe the BEW

Hope u enjoyed the pics!!! If you know what colors let me know!

Absolutely beautiful! I'm new to the Rabbit World and am just learning about colors. It's mind boggling but I can see how you can get lost in it trying to come up with the right patterns and colors. I hope someone out there can give a guess. I'm curious to know what colors they are as well. Helps with the learning process.

Again absolutely beautiful!

Its always harder to tell in pics. than in person, but I'd say
1) broken blue tort
2)maybe a solid chocolate tort
3)doesn't have enough color to tell in pics. but it is definitely a charlie.
A charlie is a broken colored rabbit that has less than 10% (i think its 10% or somewhere around there) color on their body. You don't want charlies for breeding unless you breed one to a solid colored rabbit you would get 100% brokens.

They are just sooo cute! I am looking for a young holland lop but I can't find one here in wisconsin (for not too high of a price).

I sell mine for about $25-$35 where are you located?

Really I'm actually meeting a breeder that's from Wisconsin to buy all of her breeding stock because she's going out of business. She doesn't have time for them anymore. She raises Holland Lops and Plush Lops.

We are located in centeral wisconsin (rosholt) I have been buying bunnies from someone that sells their rabbits for $10 to $15 but he does not sell holland lops. I guess im not used to paying alot for rabbits but now that I am looking for a Holland lop I have been having a really hard time finding one, and one that is $20 or under.

The breeder I know of is in Eau claire, WI, but as I said she's going out of business and in a couple weeks I'm meeting her in Iowa to buy the rest of her rabbits that she has left. I'm located in Missouri, so its going to be about 14 hr. round trip for me. Holland Lops can be more expensive though. For my Mini Rex and Holland Lop breeding stock I currently have, I paid about $40-50 per rabbit. I sell my Hollands for $30-$40 depending on whether they want the bunny with pedigree or not (all my buns are pedigreed, but I also sell them without pedigree). A lot of times you get what you pay for and for a really nice rabbit you could end up paying $50+ I know for my first Holland I looked a really long time until I got her. I bought her from a breeder in Illinois. I bought my buck from a breeder who's no longer in business in Kansas City. I've drove quite a ways to get some of my rabbits.

14 hr. away. and I thought 2 hours away was too far to travel for a bunny.
