What breed of Rabbit are mine?

wow, I just googled flemish giants and from what I can see mine are just that. Esspecially after seing a picture of a man holding a Grey flemish doe. If it didn't have that fold under its chin it could of been my Sonic.
The discription of their temperament def. fits mine totally. They haven't been handled much by the previous owner(she told us the kids Pet them occasionally but that was it), they will come right up to me to see if I have treats.

Parts of their cages have solid floors, although they rather sit on the hay on the wire floor. I guess 2 yrs of living in wirefloor cages makes it kinda weird to stand on solid ground.
Oh and the chicken wire I just put over the welded wire because the holes of the welded wire is a bit too big. This tip I got from a friend who used to raise all sorts of rabbits for years(mainly for food). Use large welded wire fence and cover most with smaller chicken wire(so the rabbits feet wont slip through) and leave one corner without the chicken wire and put the hay there so it can fall through the wire over time.

The only reason I sugested solid bottom floors it is what Flemish giant breeders recommend for the health of the rabbit. I personally raise the smaller breeds and they do wonderful on the wire bottom cages. Does this make cage cleaning much more work and cleaning more often? Yes, from once a week to everyother day min. I do second the alfala hay is a bit on the rich side for bunnies Grass hay is best.
