[Week 5: Day 27]

Here are a couple of mini BIOs for these little guys as they're growing into their personalities. [To enlarge the pictures, just click on them!]


[Bunny A: Buck]: This little orange guy is truly a Mama's boy. Much like his mother, he's very friendly and loves being pet. Whenever I open the cage to place more food in their bowls, Mama and Bunny A are always the first to run towards the door, and dip their heads to be pet together. Not only is this guy friendly, but his handsome coat is a bright orange - that these pictures unfortunately don't do justice of! [My camera tends to dilute the colors in certain lightings.] In addition, Bunny A is growing more quickly than the others, and his big floppy ears are one of his many adorable attributes.


[Bunny B: Buck] This little guy is my favorite to take pictures of, not only because he loves to strike poses and pause for good pictures, but also because he has the most interesting colored coat of the bunch. The top of his coat is a chocolate brown, but the back of his head and his undercoat is a soft orange. In addition, he has cream-colored rings around his eyes, his feet and underbelly. As the weeks progress, his coat continues to reveal different shades of colors that I did not expect to see. In addition, this little guy, much like his parents - loves to be held and pet on the head. Being one of the more active ones, he loves to jump around the cage and onto his siblings, causing a chain of bunny hopping reactions. [View the video in my previous post to see this =) .]


[Bunny C: Doe] Little Bunny C loves cuddling. She likes to sit in laps, and be pet on the head, and will show you this by running towards you and dipping her head (see bottom right picture of the comic). She not only looks almost exactly like her mother, but she also loves to groom her siblings around her, much like her Mama did when she was younger. Bunny C will be one of the smaller ones, as she is the 2nd to smallest of the bunch. She's so small and portable, and loves to hang out in sweater pockets for rides. Bunny C will most likely be an affectionate and docile little girl, and if you're lucky - she'll groom you with her little bunny kisses too!


[Bunny D: Buck]This fuzzy little guy is one of the most interesting babies in his litter. He certainly resembles his father (Emilio, the Lionhead) and has obviously inherited the gene from his father's mane. As you can see in these pictures, the mane around his head is growing around the neck and face - which is going to look very pretty when he grows up. His ears are much shorter than his siblings, meaning his physical attributes will resemble more of his father. However, he inherited his orange and white coat from his mother, and much like both of his parents - he is also very affectionate and curious. Never afraid of new people approaching him, this curious little bunny likes to explore, and be pet on his cute little lion-head.


[Bunny E: Doe] This little girl loves to snuggle and cuddle, and can always be found right in the middle of the huddle. She loves to be held, and as you can see in the bottom pictures of the comic - she definitely keeps herself clean! She's always grooming her fur, and also likes to groom her siblings as well. She has grown to be the family favorite, as she is very docile and calm when being held, and loves to pose for cute pictures. This little girl has speckles of different shades of brown on her back, her ears, around her eyes, and one little speck next to her nose (see bottom left picture of comic). She is the smallest of the bunch, and certainly one of the sweetest as well.
[Bunny E is still available!]

[Week 4: Day 24] Babies Take Flight!

The babies have been enjoying their space by hopping and running around. I caught these videos of them binkying with excitement in the morning (when they're most active) and put them all in a little music video.

Update: The link should work now.. Ok, FOR REAL this time. Enjoy!

New Bunny: Beginner's Guide

This post & video is mainly for New Bunny Owners.

Basically, before you take your bunny home with you - this is what you need:
  1. Cage
  2. Pellet food & Hay
  3. Cage accessories
  • All of these can be found at a local Booth Feeds store near you. (www.BoothFeeds.com)
  • Booth Feeds offers larger quantities of food, hay & alfalfa - for a much cheaper price, than other pet stores will offer.
In this video, I cover what you need to have for your bunny, and where you can get it for a much cheaper price. In addition, I compare the different types of cages and food that you can choose from, and why some options may be more beneficial to you and your new bunny in the long run.


What I recommend:

1) Pellet Food: Purina's Advanced Nutrition: Show Formula
This formula keeps the rabbit's coat shiny and soft - in addition, it helps prevent intestinal problems - which is a big issue for bunnies that are growing, as their digestive systems are transitioning.

Large bag = $15 at Booth Feeds

2) Cages: Safeguard Wired Bottom cages
These cages are very easy to clean, and unlike plastic-bottomed cages - safeguard cages do not require you to buy any bedding. Buying a wired-bottom cage can save you lots of money and trips to the pet store, as you do not have to replace the bedding. The waste goes through the wire and on to a tray, so really you only have to replace the tray every day or two. I place old newspaper to line the tray, to make things easier when I replace the tray. Not only do these safeguard cages keep your bunny's living environment cleaner, but it also keeps your bunny a lot cleaner, because the waste is dropped into a tray - versus being caked into chunks of bedding. Trust me, safeguard cages are the way to go.


Safeguard Wired Bottom Cage
[Waste goes through to separate tray]


Plastic Bottomed Cage
[Requires Bedding]



3) Hay & Alfalfa: Booth Feeds
Buying a small bag of alfalfa/hay from a petstore will cost you about $5-$10 - and will last you about a week or two. However, if you buy a barrel of alfalfa/hay from a Booth Feeds store, not only do you get a much larger amount - but you also get it for a cheaper price. Ultimately, if you skip the pet store and go to Booth Feeds instead - you get a lot more hay & alfalfa for just about the same price.


Barrel of Hay $12
[Lasts about 2 months]


Smaller bags = $5-$10
[Lasts about 1-2 weeks]

[Week 3 Day: 19]

So, needless to say - the babies are getting cuter and cuter as expected. They're getting so fuzzy and are beginning to show affection, as they groom their siblings. All of them enjoy being pet on the head, and have started to learn how to escape from their nestbox. Sadly they don't know how to get back in, so I've been having to check every couple hours to see which ones I need to pick up and put back in. It's funny, because they keep chasing Tinkerbell around the cage for more milk when they've escaped.

Anyways, so TinkTink was really dirty today for some reason, so I decided to give her a bath (which she absolutely hated, and ended up kicking water all over the place. Note to self: never give her a bath in a light colored t-shirt ever again) And as she was drying, I decided to take her outside into the outdoor cage for her to enjoy the sun at the same time. Then I brought the little kids along for them to enjoy their first day outside as well. They didn't seem to be so excited with their new surroundings, but they did enjoy munching on the grass.



P.S. - Thanks to all of you who have been interested in these bunnies. The last one I have left, is Bunny E, who is still in need of a home for this Spring. Please email me at tai.jennie@gmail.com if you are interested.


Hello. Take me home, Pls!

[Week 3] Opened Eyes!

Their eyes have opened, and they will be leaving the nest soon - as they are starting to nibble on pellets and hay. I'll be able to determine their genders soon, and will have lots of more info coming up this week, so stay tuned (;

Sunday, March 15, 2009

Friday, March 13, 2009

[Week 2: Day 10]

What we're looking forward to this week is:
1) Opening eyes!
2) Determining gender (Finally.)

In addition, these kits will be growing furrier and furrier by the minute, and should be little puff balls very soon. I can't wait!

Here's a whole bunch of updates with videos and pictures, enjoy!




Pictures:






P.S. - I was holding Bunny B, (helping it become used to human hands) - when it decided to pee all over me instead. They pee a lot for little fuzz balls!

[Week 2: Day 9] Mini Sausages

So it's Day 8-9 (I'm writing this really late/early) And today is the day that the little kits should start to open their eyes! Unfortunately, I will be in Philly for the day, but I decided to post this video to keep you all updated on how these little sprouts have been progressing.

They're starting to be able to move their ears around, and have gotten a lot bigger and chubbier.

Tink just finished feeding them about a half hour ago, so I decided to take a little video of them napping after their meal, because it was so cute. Plus, when they're hungry, they hop all over the place and start a frenzy of squeels when I put my hand in the box.

Anyways, Enjoy!




P.S. - Thank you to those of you who have been interested in these babies! This little update is for you (;

Tuesday, March 10, 2009

[Week 1: Day 6] Colors

As the fur is growing out, you can see the little piglets turn into mini bunnies (: The colors are a lot more visible now, and these little nuggets are lively and feistier as ever. I put one hand in there, and they all started jumping at each other, thinking it was milk time. They get so excited when they sense that their mother is around them. I decided to have one of them (the orange one) fed, because it was looking smaller than the others, so I put Tink in the cage, when they all started to get super excited and hopped all over the cage. As three of them were being fed, the other two were wandering off, trying to find their mother after they had scrambled outside of the nest. Crazy beeans.

It's been a couple days, so I cleaned the cage, and put in a new nest. Hopefully this won't confuse Tink, but she's bright and fearless... earlier today, she attacked my poodle, JJ for being in the same room. Which was really funny, because.. who does she think she is? She's half his size!

OK ANYWAYS - here's the cuteness. And yes, they're all healthy and well fed at the moment. (:


[Week 1: Day 3] Update

If you are interested in purchasing any of these rabbits, or have any other questions - you may email me here: tai.jennie@gmail.com


P.S. - I'm particularily excited about how Bunny's A and D are going to turn out, as they both resemble a light orange color, which is pretty rare (: and also really really cute.

[Week 1: Day 2]

Here's papa bear, mama bear, and the kids.

So far, all the babies are still healthy and wiggling around, which is good. (: I can't tell if there's any peanuts (aka the runts of bunnies) in the litter, but if there are then we'll see in the next couple of days. I really don't think there are any, because they all look healthy, and lively.



Enjoy!


[Week 1: Day 1] NEW KITS!

I am SO EXCITED right now..

So Tinkerbelle just had 5 new babies, and I'm so excited! This is her second litter, and I'm so happy that they made it and that they're all healthy. A couple months ago, she had a litter of two that did not make it, unfortunately.

I'd also like to say that these baby bunnies are going to be the THE CUTEST bunnies ever, as the mother is a holland lop, and the father is a lionhead. I'm going to post pictures of them soon, but what you basically get as an outcome is a bunny with lop ears that has the mane of a lion. It's also known as a lion lop.. which looks like this.

From what I can tell, one of them is going to have black spots, and while most of them are light, there's one that's really dark.

It's the first day, so please keep them in your prayers. (:



Born March 4, 2009

For those of you who are interested in buying one, I'll have more information about them up as the week progresses. At this point, they won't be ready until early May of this year.

For more questions, just email me at tai.jennie@gmail.com

Lion Lops

<< [ BACK ]


[Pictured: Litter 1]

Lifespan: 5-10 years
Weight: 3-4 lbs
Colors: All types - Lolli Lops focuses on Agoutis, brokens, and BEW in the future.

Yes, there IS such thing as a 'Lion Lop'. Lion Lops are a cross between a Lionhead rabbit, and a Lop-eared rabbit - resulting in a Lop eared rabbit, with a Lionhead mane. Typically, a successful Lion Lop will inherit both the Mane-gene, and the Lop ears. LionLops are a very rare breed, as they are not recognized by ARBA. In addition, there are no organized 'shows' for Lion Lops, meaning there are no breeders who breed them for show either - which makes them quite hard to find. Luckily, you've found Lolli Lops - who are on a mission. (;

Temperament: Based on my very first litter of Lion Lops, (See Litter 1) these little guys tend to be very curious, energetic and love to be pet. Like all rabbits, their personality and the bond that you develop with your rabbit is based on the time and effort that you spend with them. But really, the Holland Lop and the Lionhead are already both very warm and affectionate breeds, so why wouldn't you expect a bundle of love from this crossing?

Generations: Similar to Lionheads, there are 4 different generations that Lion Lops will fall under. Lolli-Lops has to start from scratch, as there are no Lion Lop breeders around the MD/DC/VA area - meaning most of these kits will be F1 Lion Lops; our goal (although it will take much time) is to have PB Lion Lops in the near future.
  • F1: First generation Lion Lop. This is usually a Lionhead crossed with a Lop. (Lolli Lop uses Holland Lops or French Lops.) The kits should inherit both the Lop ears and the Mane.
  • F2: Second generation Lion Lop. An F2 Lion Lop results in a cross between an F1 Lion Lop and another F1 Lion Lop, or anything greater (F2, F3, F4/PB)
  • F3: Third generation Lion Lop. An F3 Lion Lop results in a cross between an F2 Lion Lop and another F2 Lion Lop, or anything greater (F3, F4/PB)
  • F4: Finally, a Purebred Lion Lop (F4) Results in a cross between an F3 Lion Lop and another F3 Lion Lop or greater (another F4/PB). All Lion Lop should be Purebred from there on out, unless it is crossed with a non-Lion Lop rabbit, which will result in an F1.

Mane Type: Similar to the Lionheads, there are 3 types of Lion Lops that will result in each litter. Double, Single, and No mane. A true Lion Lop will inherit both the mane, and the Lop ears.
  1. No Mane: The rabbit did not inherit the mane-gene, and will not grow a mane.
  2. Single Mane: The Lion Lop will develop a thinner mane than the DM rabbit; will grow full as a junior, but will gradually reduce to a smaller mane around its' neck as it matures. Very difficult to tell apart from NM Lion Lop when they are babies, as they both look the same, until about 3 weeks when the mane begins to grow longer around its' ears, cheeks, and hindlegs.
  3. Double Mane: The Lion Lop will develop a very thick and poofy mane all around its head and legs. DM kits are easy to tell apart from 1-3 day sold, as there is no fur around the belly, cheeks and legs - which are the areas where the thick fur will grow to produce its' mane. [The DM Lion Lop will always be atleast an F2 Lion Lop.]
DM x DM = 100% DM
DM x SM = 50% DM; 50% SM
DM x NM = 100% SM
SM x SM = 25% NM; 50% SM; 25% DM
SM x NM = 50% SM; 50% NM
NM x NM = 100% NM

Lionheads

<< [ BACK ]

Lifespan: 5-10 years old
Weight: 2.5-3.5 lbs (True lionheads are typically very small)
Colors: Lolli-Lops focuses on BEWs, VC/VW, Agoutis, and wideband.

Lionheads are a popular new breed that Rabbits USA Magazine says 'are very friendly, easy to train, and make excellent pets.' The Lionhead rabbit is a very unique-looking breed that resembles an actual Lion with its' fluffy mane. In addition, the lionhead rabbit is relatively rare in the United States, as it is a new breed that was introduced in the year of 2000 and has not yet been recognized by the ARBA.

Temperament: The lionhead is typically very sweet and gentle. My lionheads tend to be very energertic and playful, but also love to be scratched behind their ears, and have their manes groomed. I have never had an aggressive Lionhead, but I also believe that much of its' temperament and personality is shaped during its' developmental years, when time and patience is needed to successfully develop between the rabbit and its' owner.

Generations: There are 4 different generations that Lionheads will fall under, depending on how pure its' genes are, as Lionheads are often cross-bred to different rabbits such as Netherland Dwarves to improve their mane, body type and size.
  • F1: First generation Lionhead. This is usually a Purebred Lionhead (f4) crossed with a non-lionhead rabbit, such as a Netherland Dwarf. Crossing a purebred Lionhead is usually done to improve mane quality, and body type.
  • F2: Second generation Lionhead. An F2 Lionhead results in a cross between an F1 lionhead and another F1 lionhead, or anything greater (F2, F3, F4/PB)
  • F3: Third generation Lionhead. An F3 Lionhead results in a cross between an F2 lionhead and another F2 lionhead, or anything greater (F3, F4/PB)
  • F4: Finally, a Purebred Lionhead (F4) Results in a cross between an F3 lionhead and another F3 lionhead or greater (another F4/PB). All Lionheads should be Purebred from there on out, unless it is crossed with a non-lionhead rabbit, which will result in an F1.

Mane Type: There are 3 types of Lionheads that will result in each litter. Double, Single, and No mane. In reality, a No-mane Lionhead, is usually not considered a Lionhead at all, but 25% of a cross between two SM Lionheads will result with no mane. In addition: A No-Mane Lionhead does not carry and will not pass the Mane-gene to its' future litters. The difference between Lionhead rabbits and actual Lions, is that the mane is present among both females and males in Lionhead rabbits, as the female Lioness does not. [ Yay for more fluff balls (: ]
  1. No Mane: The rabbit did not inherit the mane-gene, and will not grow a mane.
  2. Single Mane: The Lionhead will develop a thinner mane than the DM rabbit; will grow full as a young buck, but will gradually reduce to a smaller mane around its' neck as it matures. Very difficult to tell apart from NM Lionheads when they are babies, as they both look the same, until about 3 weeks when the mane begins to grow longer around its' ears, cheeks, and hindlegs.
  3. Double Mane: The Lionhead will develop a very thick and poofy mane all around its head and legs. DM kits are easy to tell apart from 1-3 day sold, as there is no fur around the belly, cheeks and legs - which are the areas where the thick fur will grow to produce its' mane. Double Maned Lionheads have very massive manes and are usually used for show. [ My young niece likes to call them 'walking clouds' as they have so much fur around them, that you can't see their feet when they walk/float around the room. ]
DM x DM = 100% DM
DM x SM = 50% DM; 50% SM
DM x NM = 100% SM
SM x SM = 25% NM; 50% SM; 25% DM
SM x NM = 50% SM; 50% NM
NM x NM = 100% NM

Holland Lops

<< [ BACK ]

Lifespan
: 7-12 Years
Weight: 3-4 lbs (depending on type)
Colors: All types. Lolli-Lops focuses on brokens, agoutis, wide bands, and BEW in the near future)

Holland lops are the smallest of the Lop-eared family, and typically grow up to 3-4 pounds depending on what type of dwarf they are. They are most well known for their large 'puppy-like' heads that set them apart from the rest of the lop family, and are showed for their large crowns.

Temperament: Holland lops can be very sweet, curious and gentle, but also somewhat shy. However, putting effort towards building a friendship with your Holland can be very rewarding, as they will groom you and give you kisses if you win their affection. This takes time and patience. From my experience, adult Hollands love to snuggle and be lazy, while younger Hollands are very energetic and playful.
[One of my younger Hollands would run to my feet and buzz in circles whenever I entered the room - a sign of deep affection.]

3 Types of Hollands: There are 3 types of Hollands that come in a litter. The true dwarf, false dwarf, and the peanut (which usually dies during the first/second week of birth).
  • A) True Dwarfs: have a smaller, compact body. Their ears are short, and often do not past their jawlines, and their bodies are smaller. Show rabbits are typically true dwarves.
  • B) False Dwarfs: (aka 'Normals) are typically longer, have longer ears that past their jawlines, and have longer hind legs. False dwarf does are typically good for breeding, as they have larger bodies that produce more kits than a true dwarf would.
  • C) Peanuts: unfortunately never grow, and always die within the first/second week; Peanuts are produced when crossing two True Dwarfs.

[ WELCOME ]

Thank you for your interest in Lolli Lops
! Just to let you know, I have worked with rabbits since 2004, and have owned Lionheads, Holland lops, Himalayans, American lops, French lops and many more since then. I have also worked with several Homeless Animal Organizations in the Northern Virginia Area to help find homes for several rabbits, and have had much experience with these lovely animals.

I have always wanted a
Lion Lop, but could never find a breeder that had them. They're a very cute hybrid, and I'm very excited to see how these little lop-eared lions turn out!

Moreso than many of its' family members - rabbits are very intelligent and can be quite affectionate pets. From bunny kisses, love buzzing, to bunny binkies - rabbits are truly special animals, and I can't wait for you to meet them.

*All proceeds either go back to these bunnies, or are donated to the Humane Society. I do not breed these bunnies for profit.

Sincerely,
Lolli Lops
Falls Church, VA

_____________________



About each Lolli Lop: The most signficant difference between buying a rabbit from a pet store, and buying a rabbit from Lolli Lops - is that I personally spend quality time and care with each of my rabbits; which is why I only breed 1 - 2 litters at a time, versus breeding several litters, because I prefer to pay my full attention to each litter that I breed all through the full 7 weeks that they remain in my care. You can see this through the videos and pictures that I take of each litter, several times a week. This not only guarantees that you know your bunny well before you buy it, but that you also know that your bunny is socialized, healthy, and well taken care of - every step of the way from my rabbitry - to your home. In addition, these bunnies are friendlier than the ones you'll find at stores - don't believe me? Read my feedback! We don't breed for show, so we don't only pick the pretty ones - we pick the FRIENDLY and HEALTHY ones. Lastly, we do not breed rabbits for profit, as all proceeds go back to these rabbits or are donated to the Humane Society. Lolli Lops strives to preserve the quality of rare rabbit breeds and their lovely personalities.

LOL's Emilio
DOB: July 2006
Breed: F2 Lionhead
Mane: Single
Color: Steel
Status: Proven Senior
Now lives w/Amy!

It was hard to let him go, but Emilio now lives with a lovely couple, who have provided a very nice home for him nearby. I only wish this little guy the best. (:




BMW's 'Bubba'
DOB: July 21st, 2008
Breed: Holland Lop
Color: Tortoise
Status: Senior
Pedigree: Available
Not For Sale

This guy is one of my favorites, as he is very calm and sweet. He isn't as curious and jumpy as my other babies, and prefers to snuggle and give bunny kisses. He's the sweetest buck I've owned, and I carry him with me all around the house. Thanks Cass! [ www.BMWHollands.com]


RBB's 'Orlando'
DOB: March 14th, 2009
Breed: f3 LH
Mane: Double (DM)
Color: BEW [Blue Eyed White]
Status: Junior
Pedigree: Available
Not For Sale

I'm so excited about this little guy - he is a Blue Eyed White, and will be starting my BEW Lionhead/LionLop Breeding Program in the Fall (of this year). Thanks Christie! [www.RiddlesBunnyBarn.com]


HH's Riot
DOB: July 24, 2008
Breed: PB Lionhead
Mane: Double
Color: Tort
Status: Proven Senior
Pedigree: Available
Not For Sale

Riot is a small, purebred double mane lionhead with a great personality (hence the name - RIOT!). He doesn't look like a DM lionhead here, because much of his mane has molted out :( but he will give his kits beautiful manes nonetheless, and will grow back his own in the next few months. Thanks Rhonda! [ http://www.bragglionheadfarm.com/ ]

LOL's TinkTink
DOB: July 2009
Breed: Mini Lop
Color: Broken Chestnut
Status: Proven
Litters: [Litter A1]
Due: 5/24/2009
Not For Sale

This little lady is one of my favorites, as she's very friendly and affectionate, and loves to give bunny kisses to people who pet her. She's absolutely one of the sweetest does I've had, and was the friendliest little bunny when I first got her, as she would hop around the room and give bunny kisses to the people around her.




BMW's 'Smores'
DOB: October 1st, 2008
Breed: Holland Lop
Color: Broken Tortoise
Status: Gestation
Pedigree: Available
Not For Sale

This little love is a false dwarf, and is also very sweet and gentle. She's a little shy, but loves to be pet on her forehead. HM is from a line of show quality Hollands, and I can't wait to see her litter of little Holland Lops this Summer. My very first litter of them, Thanks Cass! [www.bmwshollands.com]



Slatehill's Rae
DOB: December 11, 2008
Breed: F1 Lionhead
Mane: Single
Color: Black
Status: Junior
Pedigree: Available
Not For Sale

This friendly little girl is my very first Lionhead Doe, and is from Slatehill's Rabbitry. The picture really doesn't do her justice, but she's very pretty and gentle (One of our favorites). She has a nice mane for an SM doe, and has a very small and compact body, as she comes from a fluffy DM lionhead and a netherland dwarf. Rae will be bred to Orlando/Emilio when she is of age (this June), for f2 VM/VC Lionheads, which will be my very first litter of Lionheads. Thanks Terri! [www.SlatehillRabbitry.com]


H4U's Brie
DOB: February 11, 2009
Breed: Thrianta
Color: Red
Status: Junior
Pedigree: Available
Not For Sale

Brie is my very first Thrianta from Hares 4 U. She will help me start my line of Thriantas in the Fall, and RED Lionheads as well! Thriantas are very rare to find in the US, and I'm so thankful to have found her. She's just a baby right now, so she'll be getting lots of affection and love (: Thanks so much, Debbie!

DOB: June 2, 2008
Breed: Holland Lop
Color: Blue-Eyed White [BEW]

This pretty lady is my very first BEW Holland Lop (I didn't even know they existed, until recently.) who will be helping me start my BEW Lion Lop program - which I have yet to see happen anywhere else! These guys are going to be adorable, and I can't wait for the litter this fall. For now, she is bred to Bubba for my very first VM/VC Holland lops.
