An adult Netherland Dwarf rabbit in Sable Point colour. The Netherland Dwarf breed was first produced in the Netherlands in the early 20th century. Small Polish rabbits were bred with smaller wild rabbits; [3] after several generations the resulting animal was a very small domestic rabbit available in a wide variety of colours and patterns.
The Netherland Dwarf is the smallest of the domestic rabbits. The American Rabbit Breeders Association (ARBA) [3] [4] accepts a weight range of 1.1–3.5 lb (0.50–1.59 kg), but 2.5 lb (1.1 kg) is the maximum allowed by the British Rabbit Council (BRC). [5] The small stature of the Netherland Dwarf was initially the result of the dwarfing gene ...
The mother (female Netherland Dwarf) also died from the breeding process. In 1951, de Cock decided to try the breeding process again. Instead of using a Netherlands Dwarf doe, he used a male Netherland Dwarf buck. He did not think that this was possible at first, because the French Lop was much bigger than the Netherland Dwarf buck.
Forstinger bred the Dwarf Hotot further, eliminating blue and marbled eye colors from the breed, and brought several Dwarf Hotots to show at ARBA conventions each year until they were officially accepted as separate from the Netherland Dwarf in 1984. [2] The breed is of compact type and has a gentle rollback coat.
Miniature Lop is a breed of domestic rabbit recognised by the British Rabbit Council (BRC). [1] Confusion arises because, in the UK, the Miniature Lop is often commonly called (for short) the Mini Lop. It is, however, a different breed from the Mini Lop that is recognized by the American Rabbit Breeders Association (ARBA). [2]
Correctly colored sables must be a silvery color at birth, but as they age they take on a blotchy appearance. The coat typically darkens throughout the rabbit's lifetime, each successive molt reducing the contrast with the points. [1] Silver Marten are a compatible breed for introducing color into Dwarf Rabbit bloodlines. [7]
The versatile little color-block crossbody bag quickly transitions from crossbody to shoulder bag. We love the understated yet edgy chain for a hit of glam. It comes in seven other colors ...
The breed does not carry the dwarf gene and so tends to be 1.8–2.7 kg (4–6 lb) in adult weight. Canadian Plush Lops were developed mainly in Alberta since the mid-1990s. The work was initiated by Dr. Helga Vierich and Brenda Wheeler, two Edmonton area breeders, and a Breeder's Group, formed in 2004, consisting of six rabbitries, carries on ...
