I'll include links to our Breeds Library, but its in really bad shape, so not much info there beyond photos.

Netherland Dwarfs are very small, like 2 to 3 lbs, and they're zippy and have a lot of attitude (I love my dwarfs). Pipp 'grooms me' and never leaves my side if she can help it. Sherry is also a very friendly bunny. But both will grunt and charge (but not bite) when you're misbehaving.

Netherland Dwarf

Mini-rexes are also 3lbs or so, they're very curious and opinionated, a little more independent. I'm not sure they know they're rabbits. They're probably my favourite breed.

Mini Rex


I haven't had much personal experience with Holland Lops, the one I fostered was very sweet, but they're another small breed, 3 or 4 lbs I think.

Holland Lop

Hope this helps!

You may want to go to a shelter and look around.

I HAVE A QUESTION, I'm new and i don't know where to post questions, I have a 5-6 month old black male lionhead and he doesnt want to eat his fruits or veggies, I've tried apples,carrots,tomatoes,oranges,lettuce but he just doesnt want to eat, I've tried putting them in his cage and an hour later its still untouched, he eats his pellets and timonthy hay but he refuses to eat it, he is very active and can be bad at times but I just need help, please email me an answer because again I am new and i have no idea whether or not someone will or has answered this question, Thanks :rabbithop

fresh foods like that can give rabbits stomache pains sometimes. i very rarely give mine anything fresh, and if i do i give it to them in VERY small portions

Some bunnies are perfectly fine with no fruits and vegs. You could continue and offer him the food, and maybe he will come around to eating them. Try giving him some fresh grass or dandelions first.

I love lionheads. I have a lionhead mix, she is really sweet. I also have a netherland dwarf, he has an attitude at times.

Also the Brittania breed is small. Along with the netherland dwarf, hotot, lionhead, mini rex, mini lop, holland lop, dutch (these are cool looking).

Is a french lop small, or is it a medium to large breed?

Hi there! I have made the mistake of feeding my bun too much fruit, as he is a little chubby. I have cut back to a very limited amount of this and stick to timothy hay, pellets and dark leafy greens.. kale, cilantro, spinach and the like. Yes, carrots are high in sugar! Good luck! I'm sure you will find something he will like!

French lops are a large breed. They weight 10 pounds and up and have not maximum weight.
