You should include prefixes on the rabbits when posting them on websites. I know the breeder. It's really a matter of respect to the breeder, and leaving off prefixes is often looked at as disrespectful. 
They are very cute rabbits. You are lucky you snagged them up! Good luck with them.

I almost never use prefixes while posting on here....and I don't think most breeders really worry about it.You should include prefixes on the rabbits when posting them on websites.

I've had a couple of pm's about prefixes so I thought I'd explain for non-breeders and newer breeders.
Whenever a breeder has a website (or makes up a pedigree for someone) - they usually list the "prefix" of the rabbit on the website or pedigree.
For instance - I got my flemish giants from Jack Langely - (four of them) - so they would be either Langely's Sophia, or Jack Langely's Sophia or JL's Sophia (I need to contact him to ask what he uses as a prefix).
My rabbitry is going to be called "Tiny's Texas Legends" so babies that are born here will be "TTL's" or "Tiny's Texas Legends' Baby 1", etc.
So for instance - my website / pedigree would give credit to the breeder by stating:
Langely's Hermes (sire)
Langely's Sophia (dam)
Tinys Texas Legends' Baby A
Hope that makes sense...
If you're a pet owner - you don't have to worry about prefixes - its mainly done among breeders to give credit to the breeder who created / bred the rabbit.
~~~~
As a side note - there will be times when someone buys a doe that is bred or breeds a doe with someone else's buck. In those cases....the prefix is decided upon between the two breeders. For instance - if I bred a doe with Jack Langely's buck - the agreement could be that the litter has his prefix - or he could tell me to use my own prefix since they're being born here. I once bought a bred doe from Mossy Possum lionheads and was going to use her name on the babies and she told me to go ahead and use my rabbitry name - since they were born here, etc.
