An English Lop has VERY long ears. You probably have a French Lop...a picture would be helpful in determining.

You'd probably know right away if it was anEnglish lop because of it's long, long, long ears. I don't know allthat much about French Lops, but it sounds like that it's probably aFrench Lop. Is your rabbit purebred, or just one from a pet store orrescue? If it's a pet store or rescue, it'll probably be some form of acrossbred lop thingy. Anyway, a picture would be helpful.

Sorry to kidnap your thread CaityMac, but I also have the same question!

What kind of lop is my Camo? Thanks for a reply - and sorry CaityMac! :bouquet:

Hmm ... Perhaps a Mini or Holland Lop? Dwarf?How big is the rabbit? (The picture makes the bunny look bigger than itprobably is). Sorry I couldn't be more helpful, but it's not a EnglishLop, and it's not a French Lop. I know that she's cute though:inlove:

Also, need to know if you live in the U.S. or inthe U.K. They are called different things for thesame type.

In the U.S. you have a Holland Lop, I think it is called Minature Lop in the U.K.

Oh, I'm in the U.S.

He's probably about 5 lbs. I'm not sure. He's not huge.

I'm guessing Holland?

i would say a holland

his color is a tort, and that isn't something that that mini lop worldsees very often, in fact they are rather rare, but a tort holland lopis as common as a dairy farm having cows (but no matter how common theyare, the tort color is still one of my personal favs. . .)
