    Ella: My 100% German Angora Show Rabbit!!

    Yes they are not accepted, and more than likely will not be accepted (ARBA has refused them once already ... hence where the Giant came from). That said, many people show them with the giants. To show a rabbit, you do not have to prove parentage. The rabbit just has to comply with the breed...

    Angora rabbits

    Good choice. We currently work with GA & EA. Have had the others through time. For ease of coat prep and production we stayed with the GA, EA set. The EA because I love to show and be tortured by the work! The Giants or Germans are the true production animals. If you are looking to spin...

    Rabbit Breeders Buck #3 is now home.

    In MR we work with otter & broken otter. If I had to choose between these three ... It would be the second broken buck, easily. From the pictures. But, the coat texture is very important. Plus conditioning of the body. Best of luck ...

    Rabbit question? *Pictures posted*

    From the looks of the pictures ... she is a french angora or french cross. Unless there is satinized. Then she is a satin influenced. Definately not English or Giant. As for coat growth. She looks fine. Three things affect the coat growth: breed, genetics, and diet. First breed. French...
