I don't like his HQ.... It looks choppy and undercut....

It also looks like he is a little long in ear....

Other than that, it's hard to critique with only one picture.

:yeahthat:and his furs to long.

Do you have another photo?

I keep looking at this photo and I do not see fur that is too long. His guard hairs are coming in and his undercoat will follow.You cannot tell fur from a picture and you cannot judge the fur completely ina rabbit this young.

I actually think that he is a pretty nice bunny and worth raising.

Thanks for the clarification, Roger
By what age do you think he should look more "rexy" in a photo?

At about 4-4.5 months he should have his junior prime fur and then you can tell. I went to a show this past weekend and showed several older juniors.MY otter buck that took BIS in show B just finished his fur at almost 5 months old. I almost sold him because I didn't really care for his fur at 8 weeks but I held onto him. I am glad that I did. His sister that took BOS under him finished her fur a month earlier. In the other show I showed a 3.5 month old broken doe that took RIS. She finished her fur early. Alot of it depends on the line.
