Here comes my E.angora

3 days short to 2months old

Yes, but I'd like to know if these are 'distinct' breeds, or some type of dwarf mix as I've done some search online but cant seem to find any information regarding 'Teddy Bears' or 'Woody Toy' - closest results to a recognised breed is jersey wooly...

Any expert care to share their knowledge?

woody toy is a old name for Jersey wooly. However those woody toy that i have seen around is not close to the sop of jersey wooly.

teddy bears is a mixture of ea and dwarf. none recognize breed. ppl just breed them as the demand for small and fluffy rabbits is high.

may i know what is the best way to clean their "down" there, after they pee & poo, how to take off the stains at their fur?

I knew they weren't recognised breeds by ARBA or British etc., but I just thought these were 'new and distinct' breeds not yet recognised like the Lionhead's or quite recently recognised like Thrianta's etc. With these 'mix' breeds, I'm pretty sure they wont be recognised.

Lion Head still got 2 more years to go for passing the New Breed. Theresa just passed the 1st stage: Presentation of the Lionhead Rabbit
to the ARBA Standards Committee in year 2010 in MN. She will be doing the 2nd stage this year in Indiana. Finger cross, hopes everything goes well with the presentation.

additional info, Lionhead is a recognize breed by BRC. it all started in 1999 and officially recognize in year 2002

Alright - any 'new breed' thats probably / in the process of being recognised besides Lionhead's?


Related question to 'purebred's' below

1. When a rabbitry states that they'll provide pedigree, what does it mean? A 'guarantee' that the rabbit sold comes from the said 3-generations? Whats the guarantee that the rabbit actually does come from those dams / sires, grand dams / sires, great grand dams / sires (even with tattooing, one can 'forge') - especially if none in the line are Grand Champions / Leg winners (and as such are registered with ARBA and tattooed on right ear).

2. What are the conditions for a rabbitry to give 'pedigree's'? Must they must be registered (breeders / members) with ARBA?

3. If a rabbit (say Holland Lop) does not have a 3-generation pedigree, but still wants to be 'Registered' (by ARBA), will it be approved by the Registrar?

4. If there is a '3-generation pedigree' provided by a rabbitry but none of the 3 generations Registered with ARBA, and none are Leg winners or a GC, can one still Register the rabbit (eg Holland Lop) with ARBA? If yes, then one can just import a purebred HL, and then 'claim' that the rabbit's '1st generation offspring' has '3-generations pedigree' (using the said Rabbitry's name), with phony / forged lines, as its not a requirement that all 'pedigreed' rabbits be Registered with the ARBA it will be difficult to trace... How would one know that the '3rd generation' offspring is actually '3rd', and not 1st generation? The other 2 generations can forge, especially when the rabbits get older and mature in size.

Sorry for the many questions - just curious about this whole 'purebred' issue and the 'premium' it places. TQ!

No worries. I hope with the above answer it clear some of your thoughts on purebred and premium rabbits. Those that i known of in Malaysia. Is striving for quality rabbits. They have spend lots of money to import the rabbits in, get the mini rabbitry up. Some even dedicate a room of theirs to the rabbit. They even feed one of the best rabbit feed in the industry you can get. This show how much the rabbitry care for their rabbits. When one get into all this purebred/pedigree stuff, they are all aiming for the best quality rabbit. We will be having the 1st ARBA sanction show in Malaysia. Everyone would like to have their rabbit win something base on the SOP of ARBA. This again show that they are aiming for quality rabbit. Please bear in mind the the SOP and judge is very strict with DQs and fault. Any minimal fault and health problem, it will be shown to the door.

above statement is my own opinion and my own facts finding. It does not represent any clubs,breeders or whatsoever. It is solely my own.

Thank you.

how to take care of 3 weeks old rabbit given by my friend?

Give him back, ask him to take care till 8 weeks only take back from him. It is outrageous and unethical to pass baby rabbits under 8 weeks....

3 weeks is really ridiculous....

Hello again.

My almost one year old rabbit stinks! His pee and poo is very smelly. I keep him in my room so it effects me alot. I read in this rabbit thread is to get a woody pet bedding for it? How do i use it? Currently he's in a wired cage, and i put newspaper underneeth and he pee at cone corner but sh*t everywhere.

I'll get one woodypet bedding soon, but how do i use it? place it in a bowl and put under the cage or inside the cage?

I saw somewhere theres this powder, u insert into his water and his urine wont be so smelly, is that ture and will it be harmful to my rabbit?

one last question, what will rabbit react when they're in a smelly environment? Today while i was preparing food for him, after inserting food in the cage, he jump and bite my hand then go away. Nothing is wrong, he's not starving nor thirsty, he just decided to bite me. The only thing i notice is the smelly smell. Can it be?


thankyou in advance!

smell does not cause rabbit to bite you. nothing related at all. he bites you because he thinks you're his MATE. He wants to ride on you.

There is something called a litter tray. A triangular litter tray that you put on the corner of the cage where he likes to pee/poo. Woody pet wood pellets u put inside the Litter Tray.

Share with you something. Food also makes a lot of difference in terms of smell. Try feeding American Pet Diner Timmy pellets. You will soon notice that your room is odor free....

Good luck!

ride on me? lol! American Pet Diner Timmy pellets? where do i get them and at what price? I used to feed ProOptimum, but he love to eat it, less than a month 2boxes gone! I'm not free to go to the pet shop as there's no pet shop nearby my house, so i went to the place i bought this rabbit to buy some pellets. And after eating those his pee and poo stink. If the American Pet Diner Timmy pellets is priced almost the same as pro optimum then i might switch to it.

Btw, I drink carrot, apple juice everyday, i have a juicer. can i feed him those extracted things? the wood pellets is for eating or absorb smell?

thankyou in advance!

You can order Pro Optimum online my friend and if there is no smell using Pro Optimum why don't you continue? You should just continue with Pro Optimum.

This is how you use Woody Pet:

Pro Optimum have smell too, but not as fast as the cheap one that the rabbit shop sells. The cheap one smells 1-2hrs after he pee/poo. The pro optimum can last at least 6hrs. But my rabbit is in my room, cleaning every 6hrs is quite impossible for me.

thanks for the pic!

ThankYou in advance

Good luck!
