  As title said, are there any1 having this kind of 2 smallest breed mix together ?
  
  Just want to know what their baby will looks like, are they gonna have normal ear, helicopter ear or lop ear ? Or is it gonna random on those babies just like lottery ?
  
  Also are those cross mix gonna weight like Netherland Dwarf (1 – 1.2 kg) or more to Holland Lop (1.8 – 2kg) ?

  Mixes can be anything. It really is a lottery like you mentioned. Ears can be lopped or upright, one of each or half lopped helicopter ear.
  
  Size is exactly the same. Mixed breeds can be in-between in size, as big as the larger breed, or as small as the smaller breed. I think Holland Lops are also a Dwarf rabbit so depending on genetics the offspring could be true or false dwarf as well which will alter size.

  whoa thanks to your answer
  
  so basically it’s like lottery, either you get true netherland dwarf, true holland lop or true mix with helicopter ear. Counting false dwarf then there’s 6 possibilities
  
  wonder if there’s a member who have this kind of cross mix

  Well you’ll never get a true netherland or holland lop, but you’ll get babies that resemble one parent much more than the other, making them more nethie-like or more holland-like. You could get one that has the nethie body and head shape, but has lopped ears. Or one that resembles a holland lop but has small upright ears.

  I have one!! I got her on the first of the month. The mom was a Holland lop & the dad was a Netherland dwarf. The girl I got the baby from, said she has one of their babies as well. The ears are floppy now but sometimes helicopter. The baby I have now is about 10 weeks old now & her ears are still up. I’m hoping they drop!!
