From everything I read Lynx shouldn't be bred to anything other than chocolate and Lynx. Lynx are very hard to find here and I got some from a top breeder she wins shows and places. From what I understand judges often overlook the lack of white under color in Lynx here because its hard to...
I'm new to both colors and google hasn't been very helpful this time around. When your kits are young is there a way to tell Amber from Red? I have a beautiful Amber doe I got from a breeder who told me she has thrown reds regularly. She has 4 kits and they all look red right now with slight...
The lady I got the buck from also bred Champagne d'argent rabbits. I wonder if she mixed them with her Rex at some point in the past, and that's what's going on here.
My bf and I were socializing the buns today and the two broken ones in the first pic have hairs that are grey with just white on the tip. I can't recall now that I'm typing if all the hairs were white tipped or some were grey from root to tip with some white tipped hairs mixed in. I also can't...
I got one self black, a few broken blacks, and then varying shades of this they started out looking like whites on the first day, then they looked more like lilacs, like a platinum blue, then they looked just like chinchilla, now I'm not sure. Both parents are Rex with Rex coats the mother is a...
The Vienna gene does take color out of the coat but only partially out of the eye from what I read. So I can see how people can get confused about the eye thing since its a bit different than the coat color being taken out. I was reading about the marbling of the blue in the eye but you're right...
I looked up some more info and a BEW should be vv. A normal (REW) would be VV. So all kits should be either vV (Vienna marked) or Vv (Vienna carries who look normal). If I'm understanding that correctly. I have no idea on the purple eye thing promiseacres I've read a lot of contradicting info on...
That's what I was thinking because I'd heard BEW were double Vienna, so I was thinking you'd end up with some Vienna marked and some regular unless the REW had BEW or Vienna in its background or the BEW had REW in its background. But I wasn't sure if they worked off each other in some weird way...
What color do you think this guy is? I have a few ideas but I'm not really sure. His color goes all the way down but he does seem to have some darker areas on him. I'm not sure if that would be smut, ear lacing, or something else. The color suggestions I've had are red/amber/orange, washed out...
Sad update: The doe did pass away, there weren't more kits in there but the difficult labor was just too much for her. She's enjoying her apples over the rainbow bridge now. Thank you for the kind words everyone.
She is a very good doe, I'm babying her and hoping she pulls through. I think losing babies is harder on the mothers that are more devoted and unfortunately she's a very loving rabbit mama so having nothing to care plus the difficult delivery is hitting her pretty hard. She never delivered...
It was day 29-30. So very close. I just wasn't sure if a doe would abort if she'd do it early or a few days prior. Like if there wasn't enough room in there would she be able to abort just one before going into labor with the rest. I keep really detailed breeding records. Hutch card for doe and...
thank you. I think she's a bit pinched or narrow in the rear and could use some more depth. I was thinking she needed a bit of work on depth, width, and I think she's a bit long. *that attached images without me doing it... weird... but that's her mother who I think is pretty nice in the back.
