Beveren

It would be unusual to see this breed in a pet store or rescue - Beveren rabbits are a rare breed. They are listed by the American Livestock Conservancy as "Watch" status. According to the Rabbitgeek.com list, based on ARBA registrations, they are no. 4 on the rarest breeds list.

Named after the town in Belgium where the breed originated, they have an ideal adult weight from 8 to 12 pounds, and come in blue, black, white, brown and lilac (although only blue, black and white are ARBA-recognized colors). Beverens are "mandolin" shaped, with the back arched from back of the shoulders to ahead of the hips. The Beveren has "rollback" fur - if you stroke the fur "backward" (tail to head), it returns slowly to a flat position.
