        Ok lets pretend that pet shops no longer sell animals and the shelters where not needed anymore and the only way you could get a new rabbit was to put yourself on a waiting list from a breeder…

        Which breed would you pick?

        For me it changes a bit but I have to say Lion head (because they just look sooo cute) or a BIG dutch as they look like they would give the best cuddles!

            well I think i will always have a neatherland after having bugz so that was a given. I have never seen a lionhead over here so i think that even if I wanted one I would have to go on a waiting list!

              Wow… interesting to think about no petstores and no need for shelters… wouldn’t it be amazing if everyone KEPT the buns they acquired!?

              In that case… I’d get two (who am I kidding?!)… a big beautiful gray or black Flemish Giant and an equally beautiful (but not quite as big) New Zealand REW.

                  Oh my gosh, I’m so in love with lops that they are probably the only bunnies I’ll ever have. But without any consequences for my actions or without making a bun homeless I’d just die to get my hands on a charcoal grey colored english lop. Exactly like this one… isn’t that the most precious story book bunny ever?

                  Haha, I keep just staring at this pic now. She doesn’t even look like a real bunny. She looks like a gray velveteen rabbit with satin lining in her ears. Sigh, what a pretty girl.

                    *raises hand and jumps around*

                    Tri-color Dutch!!! Omg-gimmie!!

                    I’d take another Harelequin-probably a rex-never had one of those.

                    Oh also-Agreed-I’d get an English lop too!! Adalaid-you get the gray-I’ll take a blue eyed white.

                    hmmmm….Can I be greedy?

                    I’d also like a black and white dutch-with the little white feeties. And probably another lionhead-they shed big fur, but they don’t shed *much* -that’s always nice. And they look goofy and cute.

                    Oh I almost forgot-I want a GIANT bunny-German/flemish giant. Ruperts big but I would go for bigger

                      I would want a teeny tiny little lady. Just like MonkeyBun! Netherland right? I just think it would be quite the pair, my big flemish boy and my teeny little nethie girl.

                          Hmmm … part of me would like another Holland Lop – either a shaded color (white or tan body with darker nose/ears/etc) or plain old broken tort (I love the spotted ones for some reason).

                          I’d love a harli (we call them “tiger bunnies” in our house, lol).

                          And I want a Flemmie!!! Though hubby would prefer a French Lop because they’re just as big as Flemmies but look like a giant version of our current bun.

                            Although my first was a netherland dwarf, I”d have to say dutches all the way.

                                So what you are saying is that this is the breed you’d choose?

                                  I would definitely sign up for 3. A harlequin dutch, a REW dwarf, and a belgian hare.

                                    I would totally want a “siamese” colored bunny- but with the extra white on the face and body- it is called a “broken shaded sable”? Not sure on the official color name.  But I love, love, love that color and pattern.  I also love the black/grey and white harlequin bunnies too.

                                    But as to what breed?  Well, I do adore lops so maybe a Velveteen Lop.  But it would be nice to have an uppy eared bunny in my “sea of lops”- so if the bunny had the gorgeous coloring and uppy ears- that is all I would really need.  I guess now that I got my “dream bunny”- Griffin the English Lop- I can dream bigger now!

                                        If I could have any bun of my choosing it would have to be mrmac’s Dexter.

                                          Alright, if we’re talking about which member’s bunny we want, I’ll take amanda-penny&lola’s little non-fluffy boy. <33
                                          (By the way, I wonder what’s up with her and the bunnies? She hasn’t updated in weeks.)

                                              I don’t care how she gets gray or if she has other colors mixed in. I am just not as enamored with the ones that are other colors. Maybe the black ones, but I really really love the gray.

                                                For members, I’d have to look again but off the top of my head, it would have to be the house rabbit Vivian. Got to know her in the shelter, getting to know her even more here. I love the diva’s.

                                                  Without a doubt id want a REW flemmie! Runner up would be a checkered giant I think.

                                                    I would steal Griffin! My mom already said I could. lol. She actually had a dream about him after I showed her pictures. Any breed though would def be rex or mini rex. I really can’t say enough how much a love the lack of constant shedding that my other two have. I’ve seen some awesome rex mixes too. I just can’t get over that fur.

                                                      You know guys I am going and looking up half these breeds (as being new to the rabbit slave business I am not 100% sure what they all are) and well my list is growing! I think that my next rabbit (in say oh… 10 years hopefully) I would look at shelters for a giant as they just look so great!

                                                        I’m going to add to my list. I want a grey mini rex, amand’as herd (all of em!), Kafrn’s herd (<3 rabz!) Sophie's babies, those wild babies, and jack. jack's just awesome. And maybe griffin, just so my hubby can stare at him wondering how he manages those ears. <3

(This is my request for photos, please).

                                                                                              Keep in mind that I do not know the true ages of any of my rabbits since they were strays or from an animal shelter so it’s just a guess between my vets and myself.  I have had my seniors all over 6 years (Pepe is probably my youngest and I’ve had him for 4 1/2 years and maybe Emmy too my Rex) and all were full grown when I got them.

                                                                                              My seniors are Maxine (NZ White)

                                                                                              Peaches & Peppermint (Bonded Dutch Pair)

                                                                                              Mango (gray and white Dutch)

                                                                                              Toffee & Twizzler (mixes)

                                                                                              Giselle (Californian) although Giselle is by far my youngest at heart.

An all black Rex that looks just like Victoria (I think is what her name is) from the intro board. About 5 or 6 others but I will stop myself… And I think you’ve all seen pictures but…
