Fuzzies beget more fuzzies. That recessive is hard enough to get out of a line without breeding it back in on purpose.

I you were in Ohio, I'd take him.
but as Pam said, don't breed it to your Hollands. A lot of us Fuzzy breeders LOVE fuzzy hollands.

The problem is many of the fuzzy Hollands is they they have an incorrect coat and typeto show as American Fuzzy Lops.

I know this. But one extremely respectable Fuzzy breeder here has over half her herd as fuzzy hollands. Her type on them, when mixing with the fuzzy hollands remains about the same. when a lot of straight fuzzy breeders seem to have it all over the board. Some of the ones she has, has pretty good wool. The one I picked up, hers is thickening, but oh god was she a mess when I got her lol.
She's on that rtio site and always posts a lot.
and Origionall poster, PLEASE don't pet him out unless it's someone who actually is willing and/or knows how to take care of his coat. It is so depressing seeing some of the wool'd breeds with people who don't care and don't take care of their coats.

I have a feeling my bunny might be part fuzzy.
He seems more fluffy then normal hollands, and when I went to pick out a bunny she also showed me a fuzzy from a different litter that 'snuck' in.

baby hollands are very fluffy. I keep thinking see yours he was not. But I haven't seen pics for a while. Hollands are just very fluffy rabbits to begin with.

Also, Hollands that carry the wooled gene are often a little fuzzier than normal coats.
