2HP40 would have been a 2nd pick for many people because of her subpar coloring. I mean, look at that barring on her legs🤮 But rabbit breeding is like chess in a way. I absolutely adore the depth and firmness of flesh on her. The fur may not be the right color, but the texture and density is nearly spot on.

A common trend in my pals is to have excellent width, but less then desirable depth. So when I have a doe with depth, I need her, despite her width not being where I want it. That’s something many people are striving for! Having good width and depth simultaneously!

People ask me all the time what I do with all my baby culls. Well… here’s part 1 of 6 hungry snakes lol. It’s especially nice when it times out where I don’t have to thaw any. This baby in particular has been growing a very prominent white spot on the tip of the tail. No room for DQs in this barnšŸ’Ŗ
