Definitely could be a dwarf. It will be easier to tell in a few months when he is all grown up :)

I use my initials of my rabbitry...Starlight Rabbitry...SR, then a number in sequencial order. ie, SR203, SR204...etc. This works for the Dutch. For the woolies, I use the same system but I dropped the "R"...there ears are shorter...lol Sharon

Does the rabbit's name have a prefix? You can change the name but out of proper etiquette, should keep the prefix. For Example, my prefix is Star's. All my rabbits that are born in my rabbitry have this prefix. Then I add a name like Dakota. This name is the name you can change without causing...

You could try to make mom feed her babies by holding her on your lap and putting the babies under her. If this doesn't work, I have used KMR (Kitten Milk Replacer) with success. Sharon

Technically speaking, Orange is a non-extention agouti. It has 2 colors on the hair shaft opposed to 3.

What color is the baby? Colors from the shaded group have a red tinge to the eye. Sharon

My thoughts are with you and Sparky. I hope you get somegood news. Sharon

The purple mouth and legs are probably just bruising. I don't like the breathing through his mouth though. It shouldn't be doing that. I am wondering if he aspirated some liquid from the kindling process. Does he have a round, full belly? I don't want to sound pessimistic but it doesn't...

Definitely see some Dutch in her. Markings are not all that a Dutch is. I see Dutch ears, head, body and weight. I've had some very long, lanky Dutch in my beginner days. She also could be mixed with something else. I will have to see if I can post a pic of one of my "beginner" Dutch tomorrow...

Dutch do not carry a dwarfing gene. Your babies were runts. Happens a lot in Dutch. Sometimes they live and go on to be normal babies, sometimes they don't. With 9 in the litter, I am not surprised by 3 runts. Nice markings on the babies. Why are you not keeping any? Sharon

They are not "frosted", they are just sun stained. Blue is a very hard color to keep blue. They must be kept in a dark area with no sunlight. The sunlight is what is staining your blues. The other thing which could stain a blue or any rabbit for that matter is urine. Bucks especially like to...

I practice the same thing. As long as they are the same breed you will not have problems with the babies being a few days older. If you ever do have to foster babies, have on hand a black permanent marker so you can "color" the babies that her fostered. Makes picking them out a lot easier! It...

Looks like she is just a mix :) Her color is called Chestnut. Is her fur very "velvety" ? Sharon

Wow, we probably got about 15 inches. They delayed the show for 2 hours this morning but it is going to start on time tomorrow. I did well today so hopefully will do well tomorrow.

I know of that breeder in Wallingford and also of another in Hyde Park, NY. Sharon
