Exciting news!

Two English Lops arrived yesterday. They are a fully pedigreed pair of Blue Fawn Tricolors. The female is a proven 1 year old doe, and the male is a proven 2 1/2 year old buck.

Can't wait to get babies from the two! Though I am waiting probably 2 weeks to a month to breed them.

Neville, my 6 month old probably still won't be ready to breed until November.

I am very excited to be a English Lop breeder again!

These pictures were taken during transport.

This color is still an utter mystery to me. At first glance it looks like a tort, but she has white on her nose, the outside of her ears, and on her whole underbelly. Anyone have any idea what color this is??

Sexed these two cuties over the last couple days, and I've come to the conclusion that Marble's blue baby is a girl, and baby black is a boy. They both seem to be double mane as well. I'm waiting a little longer to start sexing Opal's litter and I'm pretty sure all 7 of hers are single mane.

Baby blue and baby black!

I did a couple tests with my preggos, and I think Opal is the only one having babies unfortunately. Helga MAY have babes, but Marble has almost no chance of any wiggle beans.

I thought this was interesting! Sorry I haven't been keeping up on this page, but we have been super busy. My three does are supposedly having babies around the 21st (Opal), 22nd (Helga), and 24th (Marble). So two purebred lionhead litters and one english lop/lionhead mix litter. I'll start doing some pregnancy tests with them so I can see which ones are most likely pregnant (hopefully all).

Read this! Super important even if you don't live in a RHDV2 zone. I honestly didn't know the virus is THIS BAD 😰. I NEED to be more careful! 😩

As of now, there have been confirmed Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease Virus Type-2 (RHDV2) cases in Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, South Dakota, Texas, Utah, Wyoming, as well as in Canada and Mexico, affecting both wild and domestic rabbits. Officials report a death rate of about 90%, which is why strict precautions must be taken by rabbit guardians, including vaccination.

RHDV2 is a hardy virus and can remain stable for 3.5 months at room temperature, and can even survive heat of 122F for one hour and for 225 days at 39F (just above freezing temperatures).

Even indoor-only rabbits are at risk, since RHDV2 can be transferred to them by people (on their shoes and clothes), other animals (including dogs and cats, especially if they go outside), and even insects.
