That's what I was thinking but I just don't know how I would explain that one to my husband. Let's see....it would just be funnier not to tell him what kind it is and just see the look on his face everyday when its grown.

How big are the babies??? size of most full grown rabbits? have to have a huge hutch.....

I would love to have one of those German giants as a pet!

I've seen pictures of his rabbits, before. I looked into it at the time, but didn't find any in this country. I love their chunky look. I litter train my house rabbits, so it could just lounge around with my dogs in the livingroom. I'd need a lot bigger litter box, though!

Yes that is one big rabbit, but not quite as big as it appears. He's using the old fishermans trick of holding it out at arms length toward the camera. The perspective makes it appear larger than it actually is. If he were cradling it against his chest we could get a more accurate idea of its true size.
