Oh wow! Yours are gorgeous, must be a lot of grooming! I love big bunnies. Do you do anything with their fur?

Cedric's parents were there at the house, the father was definitely a lop and the mom a mini Rex....unless some other bunny hopped over the fence and got momma pregnant.

Hello Lexii, your bunny is beautiful, however I believe his is not a rex/lop. Rex rabbits tend to have whiskers that are sparse or curled at the ends. Kind of giving the appearance as if the rabbit has been bullied by another rabbit even. Your rabbit has perfect whiskers & I think if you Google harlequin rabbits, you will see many that have a coat & face with a checked appearance. They are very unique looking. Your rabbit has the same color blending just a bit muted together.
Search several pages of images & you should see what I mean.
Cedric is a beautiful bunny with great markings.

Thank you! Sadly I do not...I just don't have the time to spin or anything. Normally i ...*gasp*... shave them with clippers, but I am planning to pull it and save the next batch of fur for a member here who uses it to make fishing lures.

Here is a rescue we just trapped. Been over 2 months of trying to save her. She's super smart and super fast. But started getting weak. We were unsuccessful with the one running loose before her. Disadvantage of a bad part of town my better half works in. We save many critters, of all shapes and sizes, over the years. Everyone we advertise as found falls on deaf ears. So very sad.
She's here and doing much better now. Been 20+ years since I've had a bun. Forgot how wonderful they are.

She's now living in a real hutch with all the comforts and love she can want. She's making big strides everyday.
Nice to see other bun lovers here

Fluffy! I would definitely make use of all that fur.
"Normal" bunny fur can be spun too, but it's scratchy. I've used it for needle felting and glued it onto sculptures, but I guess with angora fur you would have an even wider range of applications.

Are you a spinner? I was when I had time. Now my wheel just sits there looking at me and making me feel guilty.
