Dear Gypsy,

Thank you so much. Leave it to you to take the ball and run with it. Iwish you and Buck had overlapped in conversations more. He would've SoLoved the way you approach a question and investigate it.

After a recent compliment of her color from a friend, I checked withPam. Pamnock said Fauna's color isn't one often seen on The Table.There aren't a lot of Frosty Hollands out there. I couldn't find hercolor in the copy of the Standards that I have. Thank you so much forthe link. :hug:

Let's just Hope DaisyNBuster doesn't see this thread. ray:

I look forward to having you hold her and then tell me what you think of Hollands after next weekend.

[MyBabyBunnies]

Nuh uh! :XShe loves ME, you can't have her!

She kisses anyone and everyone but she kisses me the most. She'll kissmy mom when I bring her in but only once or twice then she'll stop, ifit's me, she'll kiss me until I wont let her anymore (my hand starts togo numb after she licks the same spot over and over again).

But she's ALL mine! :brat:

 

[The Missus]

Buck issooooooooooooooooooo...........................happy that Fauna startedgiving you kisses................well, wasn't it about time,aye'! We were informed that Fauna's color is "graypearl." Ever heard that description before???

 

[Jenniblu]

I love Fauna's color. :inlove:

 

[Carolyn]

My Dear Friend, "The Missus",

What a really pleasant surprise to see you posted in our baby girl'sthread. I do so love having Buck's name mentioned in this forum. Thereisn't a time I come in here and don't think about him.

I had originally thought Fauna's color was Frosted Pearl, but aftertalking to Pam the other day, she said in Mini Lops, they're consideredFrosted Pearl and in Hollands, it's called Frosty. She hadn'treferenced her Standards, but was pretty sure. I looked it up in Buck'sold Standards book, but it wasn't mentioned.


Little 'Big' Girl spent the night out and about last night. She causesno trouble at all and she really didn't want to go back in her cage, soI let her roam. When I got up this morning, she was scratching her wayinside the empty Rabbit Chow bag and then was stealing Cali's hay fromthe outside of Cali's cage. She's so funny the way she sits and staresat Cali. It reminds me so much of how she was with Tucker that firstmonth she was here.

I've put her back in her cage for the day, although I did contemplateleaving her out because she's so well behaved. Tucker was furious thatshe was out and he wasn't as well, so I put her back.

She's happily nibbling on her food, hay and drinking water, so All's Well.

Thanks for stopping in. It's so great to see you!

:hug:

Carolyn and Gypsy, I found a good site withcolors and pics.http://www.geocities.com/hoppinherdofhares2003/lopcolorguide.html

Hope this helps.......by the way....never heard of "gray pearl"...It is not in my standard.

Sharon

 

[Carolyn]

What a great site you have, Sharon.

I think The Missus meant Frosted Pearl, not grey pearl.

Fauna definitely looks like that Frosted Pearl. Gotta findout if it's divided up as Pam said whereas mini lops are Frosted Pearland Hollands are Frosty's.

Thank you. I really enjoyed your website. Excellent job!

-Carolyn

 

[Starlight Rabbitry]

Pam is right. They are known as Frostyin Hollands. However, my standard has them listed indifferent groups. In Hollands, frosty is listedunderWide Band group and in Mini's, it is Frosted pearl andis listed under the shaded group. I am wondering if there isa difference in the color. PAMMMMM weneed you!!!!!! lol.

Same color -- The Holland Lop standard committee just stuck it under adifferent group name. The color itself can vary widelybecause of the different shading/tipping and eye colors allowed.

Carolyn -- what color is at the base of the coat when you blow intoit? Is it white or grayish at the base? White wouldbe a frosty, grayish would be a chin or squirrel. (Does she have brown(chin) or blue-gray (squirrel) eyes?)
