Mongo's cute white blaze is a major issue if considering using him forbreeding show quality rabbits. The white blaze isadisqualification for showand is a genetic mismarkthat should NOT be introduced into a serious breedingprogram.

If he does breed them, the color he will most likely get is Chestnut Aoguti(that possibly have white blazes).

I recommend against breeding rabbits with disqualifications.Many times these rabbits end up in the hands of youth exhibitors whoare very dissappointed when they show their rabbits, only to find outthat they are not showable.

However, what Mike chooses to do is his business Ijust want him to be aware of the potential problemshewould be introducing into his genepool.

Hi Pam, I totally understand what you aresaying. Their are too many rabbits that end up in sheltersnot wanted. I get so upset when I read these stories.

I guess I just love Bunnies, if I had lots of money and a bigger home I'd have more than 4 bunnies.

Everything I've read says A Fixed Buck & Doe make the Best Companions,This IsRight isn't it? :hug:
We still haven't even desided aboutBreeding any Rabbits yetonder:,as we may just Keep the Bunnies as Loving House Pets!:inlove:

Wasn't sure if you had changed direction . . .

but sounds like you are on the right track :thumbup



My apologies for misunderstanding :blushan:

Mike, thats so great that you are keeping Mongoas an indoor house pet! I remembered you saying you wanted to breed, soI wasnt sure either.

You are right though, a male and a female usually make the best match,although its not a guarantee. Im sure you've also heard that itsdifficult to bond babies, as they sometimes fight when they mature. Aslong as youre prepared to house them separately, just in case, youshould be fine.

Mongo and his new girlfriend will make such a handsome couple! And Imsure that mansion will be big enough for two once they are (hopefully)bonded

 

[pamnock]

We can refer to the Opal gal as Mongo's "companion" :bunnieskiss



But, these are inquisitive Holland Lops, soI'm sure they'll be"Partners in Crime" :devil

She will have her Own "Opal's" Mansionuntil Mongos fixed and they've bonded, However long that may take.:wink Of coarse as soon as she's old enough she''ll also befixed.

I'm still haven't put breeding out of mymind totallyBut these two will definatelybeourhouse Bunnies and our loving companions.

Don't know if you read this in My intro or if I actually putit in there but I'm disabled with 5 shattered cervical disc from a jobinjury 6 years ago. I had to sell allmy horses that I'd beenraising for a total of 8yrs. and we soon afterdesided to getRabbits, my girls and I thought it would be great to breed them assomething My girls and I could do togetherand still do But Iknow it's a lot of Work and Responsability and I'm not real sure I wantto take on ALLthat work in my condition But Iamsure having justthese 2Bunnies willKeepusHappyfor a verylong Time.

Mike, I understand about the disability thing -I'm in a similar situation. My Nibbles has brought me a lot of joy,love and laughter, which is something I've been enjoying about yourposts on Mongo (plus his pics!).

Your new girl is beautiful, too - and looks so sweet. I bet she'll havethe "Who? Me? Why do you ask?" look down pat before you know it!

Edit: I looked into getting many different kinds of animals as housepets, but decided on having a house bun pretty early on. I'm glad Idid, and would like to have a few more in time.
