I breed my ruby eyed white rabbit with my black lop eared rabbit. Is there any way to tell which ones will have lop ears and which ones wont? They are two weeks old today.

I haven't had much luck getting true lops when breeding a lop eared breed to a straight eared breed. Probably the best you can hope for is some airplane ears. Not that those aren't adorable, of course!
 
Even pure lops are born with standing ears. It takes a up to 7 weeks for their ears to lop and sometimes crosses will have in between ears that don't lop all the way.

Congrats on the baby buns!
