i hav read that website

I know a breeder in our area. I know a few people here are mixing them with lops and a few other things to create Canadian Plush Lops (Wallaby is one, although not up to their hopeful breed standard). I didn't know they were that rare?

I'm moving this to the rabbitry instead of the introductions area.

thx

I thought the Astrex was just a gene mutation that sometimes occurred in Lionheads that made the mane go all wierd? Never knew these rabbits existed! Can't say I care too much for them though, LOL.

I haven't seen these rabbits. But the babies are adorable! Will definitely be looking for these at future shows.

I'm not sure how thoroughly you read that second site but it said on the very first page

Please if you want to learn more about these Astrex Rabbits and talk to serious breeders that often do have bunnies and breeder for sale, join us at the Yahoo Groups

It also had a link to join the group.
