        Question for the Himalayan owners out there! This is my four month old Himalayan Netherland dwarf buck. He was sold to me papered as show quality, and I was told his points are still developing. He has black ears, dark brown legs, and a black tail, but his nose seems a bit frosted. How long does it take a Himalayan to fully develop their points?
        Thanks!

          It looks pretty well developed. From what I’ve seen, himi marked rabbits of breeds other than the actual Himilayan breed don’t have quite an extensive nose marking. That being said, points do take time to develop and will also change in colour and size with the seasons. They will be larger and darker in the colder seasons, and light and smaller in the warmer seasons.
