I have a new Flemish giant doe (last picture) now!! I'm getting two more Flemish on Tuesday (grey doe and orange buck)

The hobby rabbitry that's closest to me just got this doe, Delilah. Beautiful markings. I will be breeding with my buck when I get him. I saw Delilah and begged the girl at the rabbitry to get her with the promise of breeding with my buck. I'm coming up in the rabbit world. lol

Are these dwarf or Dutch? They are pretty.

Are these dwarf or Dutch? They are pretty.

Look like Vienna Marked (VM) Dwarfs, which is what Delilah looks sorta like, too.

 

[Kaye]

They are dwarfs, but not show quality. I have a doe that is show quality, but she won't have anything to do with breeding. I'm not sure what to do with her....

Can anyone explain the Vienna gene to me??

 

[Bunnylady]

Two copies of the Vienna gene (VV) is a Blue-eyed White; a completely white rabbit with cornflower blue eyes. One copy of Vienna (Vv) is usually what is called Vienna marked (VM). VM rabbits may have just a little bit of white on the nose or toes, but they often have a lot more than that, in what may look surprisingly like the pattern on a Dutch rabbit. VM may have normal colored eyes, blue eyes, or even one of each. Sometimes you can get what is known as a Vienna carrier, or VC. A VC looks like a normal colored rabbit without Vienna, even though it actually has one copy of the Vienna gene. About the only ways you can be sure a rabbit is a VC is to test breed it, or if you know it had a BEW parent.
