When do mini lop eared rabbit's ears lop???

Question

i have had my bunny for 3 mnths now and her ears have not flopped over?

Answer 1

Pet stores usually lie about their bunnies. Your lop isn't a lop.  

Answer 2

I've heard from a breeder they can take up to 6 months to flop.  

Answer 3

they usually flop from 5wks-10weeks

im sorry to say ,but if your buns ears havnt flopped yet, i dont think they ever will:(

i only just found out that my mini lop (bucks') dad had one ear up one ear down - genetically (doesnt meen hes not a pure)

and it just so happens that "Harper" has one ear up one ear down

they are called helicopter ears!

1.your bun might not be a pure mini lop

in which case it might be a dwarf lop or dwarf x minilop(none of these are pure)

2. she might have had a parent with one ear up one ear down, so genetically it couldve had an impact causing both ears to be up

3. they will lop(doubt it)

*if you got your bun from a pet shop and not a reputable breeder, then there is no guarantee that she is even a mini lop.

for all you know her mum/dad might have been pure dwarf (causing your bun to be a "pet quality rabbit".

but if you got her from a breeder:

check that its reputable (genuine)

and also call back to maybe see the parents!

because youll never know otherwise!!

if you did get her from a breeder/pet shop and saw the parents and everything was ok (no genetic disoreders-something you shouldve discussed before you bought her)then give them a ring and ask for advice.

if shes not, demand a refund or something-they are ripping you off!!

hope this helped!
