Rabbit Hill's Cranberry
(Broken Castor, Mini Rex)
|
Mini Rex: the Mini Rex is slightly larger than the Holland Lop but has a sleeker body shape with upright ears between 2 and 3 inches in length. The most noticeable aspect of the Mini Rex is its dense fur. The fur is 3/8 of an inch in length and when you touch it it's like rubbing a piece of plush velvet. This rabbit is ideal for allergy sufferers. Mini Rex are active rabbits that also love to be petted and caressed. In fact, the more you pet your Mini Rex, the thicker the coat will grow. (When you pet the rabbit it grooms itself more because of the smell of your hands on it's coat!) Mini Rex are available in a wide variety of colors.
The Rabbit Hill specializes in the following Mini Rex colors: Otter-all four colors-blue, black, chocolate & lilac, Tortoise Shell, Red, Broken, Castor, and Black.
