This is a harlequinized opal doe, a rabbit exhibiting coloration halfway between true opal and blue/fawn harlequin. (Check out the "ghost" harlequin markings on her belly and tail.) This is not a showable color in rabbits but can be used in breeding programs; one would pair with several options including tricolor or broken orange or cream.

Castor, opal, amber, lynx, and chinchilla rabbits can all carry the harlequin gene, which is an example of incomplete dominance; two genes combine to produce a result somewhere in the middle, like mixing black and white paint to make gray.

Our first buns from Pichu and Bonsai are 10 weeks old, and definitely in their gangly adolescent period. However, because Bonsai shares some common ancestry with Pichu, this litter is a little more consistent than some of our prior litters have been.

Solid Velveteen weekend at the Southern Roots Rabbit show in Longview. There were FORTY FOUR youth and open Velveteens on the table Friday for the specialty show, which exceeds the entries at ARBA convention the past two years. Huge thank you to the SRRCS for hosting us and Misty Polasik for judging our specialty show -- she gives the best comments and was so kind to our Velveteen kids.

Bayes (broken cream buck) and Fauna (orange doe) took home Best of Breed and Best Opposite this weekend. Not a lot of brokens on the table but our sweet tri does Eevee and Xatu placed Best Opposite of Variety to Bayes.

Pichu helped some friends with crafts. 🤭

Productivity is down today 📉

This little bunny is in her bald era and her ears are all askew too!

More baby rabbit care 🍼👶: this bunny has temporary hair loss associated with the rex fur gene. It's a relatively common phase in rex development, doesn't cause harm, and grows back quickly. Rabbits (as well as kittens and puppies) are born blind and deaf and are susceptible to eye infections at 10-12 days when their eyes open. As a rabbit caretaker it's important to monitor eye health in little ones.

Socializing a week old litter of Velveteen Lops bunny rabbits. (Not all mother rabbits tolerate people playing with their offspring.) We've found that accustoming rabbits to being handled from a young age makes for friendlier and far more confident adults.

This evening we're checking a nest of newborn bunnies just 72 hours old. Mom built a beautiful nest for her babies, using fur from her underside to provide a warm and soft bed for them. We're looking for full tummies, wrinkles filling out, and sleepy stretches.

Rex-furred rabbits like Velveteen Lops may shed a little less on a routine basis but these seasonal molts are no joke! Their fur comes out in patches -- this is typical for the breed and not a sign of illness or malnutrition. Soon she'll have fresh new fur! . . . . #txvelveteens #txvelveteenlops #rabbitsworldwide #rabbitsofinstagram #brushybrushy #showrabbits #rexlop #Velveteenlop #belierpaluche #rabbitlife #rabbitshow #texasvelveteenlops #tricolorvelveteenlop #velveteenlops #velveteenlop #velveteenrabbit

Interested in raising quality Velveteen Lop rabbits? Here are some questions to help inform your decision! 1. Posing is a foundational element in evaluating prospective herd members -- its challenging to evaluate unposed rabbits. 2. Velveteens are medium sized rabbits with a maximum adult weight of 6.5 pounds (bucks) and 7 pounds (does). Many are too large so small rabbits can be a big help to your herd. 3. Their ears should be a minimum of 14" long, measured tip to tip. #velveteenrabbit #velveteenlop #txvelveteenlops #showrabbits

Solid Velveteens on the table at ARBA Convention

Velveteen Lop row at ARBA Convention in Reno!

Absolute chaos tonight 😅

Someone shared a video earlier today of their Northwood bunny binkying around the vet's office. Here's a behind the scenes peek into our "super scientific" socialization method. 😉

Made a quick stop at Mini Rex Nationals this morning -- this is the coop area (bunny hotel). Many of our Velveteen Lop friends raise Mini Rex as well so it's a big day for the community!
