How big are Mini Lops & how fast do they grow? Photos!

Often times people come to our rabbitry and are surprised by the size of a Mini Lop.
Due to the word "Miniature" or "Mini" in their name people expect them to be dwarf in size.
Miniature Lops are not a dwarf rabbit.  They generally grow to a weight range of 4 1/2 - 7 pounds.
Our current adults are more towards the upper end of that weight range.

On a side note, Holland Lops (not being the same as Miniature Lops) are smaller lop rabbits, whereas English Lops and French Lops are larger than Mini Lops.

Mini Lops usually reach their adult size around 6- 8 months of age.
They grow very quickly during the first weeks of life.
You can see photos of our buck Whitehaven's Mango's growth during his first 3 months.
(I  plan to add additional photos as he grows.)
