Holland lops. All torts. I think that looks like a black tort, a blue tort, a broken blue tort, and 2 broken black torts, but it could be a trick of the lighting too. Need more fur! They're all definitely Black tort based. Parents are black tort x broken black tort with dilute, so we'll see what colors we get. :)

I guess it's best to have pelts from a mature species, be it beaver, fox, deer, mink, etc. A good rabbit hide probably comes from a year old or older. Mine are between 10 and 12 weeks when prime for meat, so the hides just get thrown away.

I think you mentioned this previously but I can't remember. Are you doing meat for just sustainability or are you doing a bit of business in rabbit meat?
