| hmm thats what I was afraid of it doesn't seem to bother him - vet thinks it is most likely an old inactive badly healed abscess ... she doesn't really want to poke it unless it grows or is sore - and I can't blame her ... fingers crossed it's nothing

Half Caper Farm (2/7/2009)
I don't have them (I have Harlequins and Lionheads) but a good friend of mine used to. His comment was "they're not a hobby, they're a lifestyle!" Lot of grooming to those little fluffballs. 
Back when I was breeding rabbits (years ago...I was probably 13! It's crazy how time flies) I had a Harlequin doe. She was SO pretty and sweet. My other rabbits were mostly mixes, with one Dutch, one Mini-Rex, and a few Holland Lops. I had the worst luck with them, though. I don't know what I was doing wrong, but perfectly healthy looking rabbits would randomly die without any known cause.

| i have satin angora rabbits and plan on breeding this spring. if you don't mind the extra work involved with harversting the fiber angoras are the best. i have owned rabbits my whole life and angoras are by far my favorite breed. they have the sweetest temperment.
