This is often passed along geneticly....I am familiar with a couple lines of Harlies which tend to get this. I would not ude her for breeding if I were you. ...
how severe are the toes pointing outward? It is a genetic problem and it will perpetuate in breeding - usually they are pinched feeling in the hindquarters...
Oh, that is fantastic you are getting them Pam! You are going to cross them into your current Rex to perpetuate the gene and then inbreed/linebreed from...
Actually, not quite, Karin....first they get inbred, to further fix what's there and enable me to cherry-pick for size and quality of curl, then the bucks will...
excellent plan Pam! OHHH - could you imagine a blanket made from those coats?!!!! Drooling just thinking about it! I've been dying to make a rabbit fur...
On the subject of Astrex pelts: just one little note you might want to keep in the way back of your mind, Pam. I will try to find the reference, but I have a...

From my own experience with them, my impression is that the curls are most dramatic right after the first adult molt. In the case of a doe, this can also...

I think we've all been there Helga, don't beat yourself up :) I had a doe living with her mother until she was a senior - one thing I've never done before -...
maybe a very poor colored tort? Do you have a picture? Karin ... From: Brian Flemal To: rabbit_genetics_Quickpost@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday, October 02,...

hehehe :) It's always FUN to get those spoilt bunnies - the personalities always seem to be so different, makes them really stand out in the herd :) I've had...
Could it be a Copper marking? I have had Copper Satins and they have an orange ring color. I have noticed this also on a Tort that had the orange band color...
Ok I have 3 satin angora kits. 1 I am sure is red, but its littermate is about 2 or 3 shades lighter. Could she be the unshowable orange color or just a dark...
