Okay, so don't laugh at me for this.
I got two baby Holland Lops on January 3rd, and she said their ears wouldn't 'drop' for at least a month is I think what she said. They were eight weeks old I believe and their breeding line takes longer for ears to drop.
I was clipping the smaller one's nails today, and she was squirming around so I wrapped her like a burrito in a towel so I wouldn't accidentally clip the quick, which I did anyway. But when I put her down I noticed one ear was up and the other was...limp. Both of them have done it before, so I wasn't worried until she wouldn't pick it up to listen, which they usually do.
So, yes, it sounds stupid, but I was wondering if it could just be because she's a lop? I didn't think it was this early though.
Also, I felt this could be better answered here, perhaps by Lop breeders, instead of the Infirmary but feel free to move it.
