Holland Lop Rabbit

English name: Holland Lop
Origin: Netherlands
< p>Reproduction method: viviparousHabits, naturally docile temperament. Rabbits are very timid. When they hear a sudden noise, they will startle and lose their appetite. Female rabbits that are giving birth often have dystocia when disturbed, or refuse to breastfeed their babies. In addition to exercising and eating, rabbits also like to rest and sleep. They will be immediately alerted by any movement. Therefore, it is important to have a quiet environment for raising rabbits. Rabbits have thick fur that protects them from the cold. Adult rabbits can withstand sub-zero temperatures and can reproduce in winter at around 5°C. Rabbits are very afraid of heat because their sweat glands are underdeveloped and cannot regulate their body temperature through sweating. Therefore, when the outside temperature is too high, rabbits often crawl on the ground and use ground conduction to dissipate heat; or they increase the number of breathing and use exhalation to bring out heat. The suitable temperature for adult rabbits is 15~25℃, and for young rabbits is 30~32℃.
Physical characteristics: Weight 2~2.5kg, the most appropriate weight is about 1.4kg. The smallest and most adorable lop-eared rabbit, with a round, heavy and hairy body.

Care Rabbits are afraid of moisture, like to be clean, and hate it filthy. Therefore, in terms of feeding and management, a dry and clean living environment must be created. The rabbit cage must be kept dry at all times and the rabbit cage must be brushed every week. Feed, drinking water, feeding utensils, etc. must be kept clean at all times. Dark, moist, and polluted air are the main causes of rabbit infections. In addition to eating during the day, rabbits like to rest or sleep in the cage, but at night they are extremely active and eat frequently. According to experiments, rabbits’ food intake at night accounts for about 75% of the total diet. Therefore, rabbits must keep feeding grass at night. Rabbits like to dig holes to live in. When they are free-range, they dig holes more frequently before breeding. So when building a rabbit hutch, pay attention to this in terms of design and materials. According to this habit of rabbits, you can use mountains and hills to raise rabbits in caves in places with good climate. When adult male rabbits meet, they will chase and bite each other; when female rabbits are together, they will also bite each other. When male and female rabbits are together, they tend to live in harmony. Therefore, during management, try not to keep adult male rabbits or adult female rabbits together.
Characteristics of the Standard American Netherlands Lop Rabbit:
Standard Netherlands Lop Rabbit
(Abstract from the official website of the American Rabbit Breeders Association (ARBA)) · United States The ratio of the Netherlands Lop rabbit's head to body is 1:2, and the neck is generally invisible. · The head of the American Holland Lop rabbit is very round like a ball. · Viewed from the side, the curve from the top of the head to the nose is slightly bulging outward. The older the rabbit, the greater the bulging curve. · Viewed from the side, the part from the nose to the mouth is relatively long (~1-2 cm long) and is completely vertical, flat (or even concave). · The distance between the eyes of the American Holland Lop rabbit takes up about three-fifths of the head. The eyes are very large and bright. · Most American Holland Lop rabbits have two plump bun-shaped faces when viewed from the front. · The hair on the entire body of the American Holland Lop rabbit is very short, and the hair is a bit thick, but very dense. · The standard weight of American Holland Lop rabbits should be 2 – 2.5 kg. The weight of the standard Dutch Lop rabbit for competition should not exceed 1.8 kg.
Characteristics of non-standard (China) Dutch Lop Rabbit: ===
(Alias: Dutch Long-haired Lop Rabbit)
Characteristics of non-standard Holland Lop rabbits - excessively long hair on the head
(Example of non-standard Holland Lop rabbits sold in the Chinese market) · Most non-standard (China) Holland Lop rabbits For eared rabbits, the ratio of head to body is 1:2 or 1:3. Most non-standard (Chinese) Dutch lop-eared rabbits have an irregular curve from the top of the head to the nose (forehead). More than half of the non-standard (Chinese) Netherlands Lop rabbits have foreheads that protrude slightly outward, generally forming a 60° slope shape. · Viewed from the side, the nose and mouth protrude from the face. · Viewed from the front, the cheeks of non-standard (Chinese) Netherlands Lop rabbits are generally not plump and not bun-shaped. Most non-standard (Chinese) Netherlands Lop rabbits have shorter hair on other parts of the body except the head.
Non-standard Dutch Lop rabbit characteristics - the nose and mouth protrude from the face
The hair on the head, behind the ears and cheeks is longer (~10cm). As the age increases, the hair on the head of the non-standard (Chinese) Netherlands Lop rabbit will gradually become obvious. · The standard weight of non-standard (China) Netherlands Lop rabbits ranges from 2 to 3 kilograms. Is it important whether the Netherlands Lop rabbit is pure or not? The vast majority of domestic rabbits sold on the market today are actually not ancient purebred rabbits. This also includes the (standard American) Netherlands Lop rabbit itself. The standard American Holland Lop rabbit is itself a "new breed" created by mating and breeding three different ancient rabbit breeds. Therefore, it does not matter whether the Netherlands Lop rabbit is pure or not. Why is it important to learn to tell the difference between standard and non-standard Holland Lop rabbits? There are two points. First, standard Dutch lop-eared rabbits are generally the result of decades of inbreeding. So they generally carry a series of recessive genetic diseases.
Among these diseases, the most common is dental disease. Therefore, those who have standard (American) Holland Lop rabbits at home should pay more attention to the protection of the rabbit’s teeth and take their rabbits to the veterinarian frequently to check their teeth. The second point is to prevent some unscrupulous traders from selling non-standard Holland Lop rabbits at high prices.
