I just bought a lop rabbit?

Question

but i dont know if it is a mini lop, dwarf lop, or a regular lop.

shes 9 weeks old, and very energetic. can you help me figure out what she is?

plus, the breeder said that when she was little, she rubbed up on a ladder in the cage alot, and her hair was rubbed off. will this grow back?

Answer 1

That breeder sounds off. The poor bunny is probably sick.  

Answer 2

Well, there is actually no type of dwarf or normal lop. The breeds of lop are as follow (from smallest to largest): Holland, American Fuzzy, Mini, English, French. I think I got them all... I think you would kow if it was an English because they have freakishly long ears (The longest of any breed). Also, French lops are very large, so I also think you would be able to tell if you had one of those. An American Fuzzy lop has wool and it is much longer than a regular fur type. So I would say that you either have a mini lop or a holland lop. Holland lops are smaller and a bit more compact than minis, my little brother thinks that they look like dogs in the way that they pose and the way that their ears kinda stick out. Both breeds are fairly popular, so I would go to the arba web site to get the exact weights and look at pictures. You might also have a mixed breed which, unless you have her papers, is very possible.

Answer 3

the fur should, and it sounds like a holland lop! they are very playful, or else a mini lop, but ok if it is 2-3 lbs then it is a holland lop, because that is what mine is and its the same age! :)

Holland lops grown to be in between small and medium , and he isnt sick dont listen to person below. just look for some ointment to help it grow! :)

oha nd you can email me a picture off photobucket, and i can tell you from in a second! :)
