The French Lops are a challenge to raise in the Texas summer heat. Many of the people that raise rabbits near me suffered huge losses due to heat stroke. Fans alone are not enough, I had success through the summer by putting block ice and frozen 2 liter coke bottles in the hutches so they could...

BSAR, if you were bit closer I'd give you one of the Flemish babies. We have another Flemish Doe that we are going to breed in about a month [her 1st litter], then we will probably wait about a year or so to do it again. This is a project of mine to develope my own line of show quality rabbits...
