        Hi guys

        I was told on another forum that Jumpy could be a lionhead/netherland dwarf mix but I weighed him recently and he is 2 kg.

        There is some pics on his instagram- https://www.instagram.com/jumpy.the.bunny/

        I also have another question about shedding. I always see people complaining about their rabbit shedding and hair being everywhere. Jumpy has never shed and he is 8 months old tomorrow. Do you have any idea why?

          He certainly has the lionhead mane. Cutie!

          I vaguely remember something about lionheads having their first big moult around 1 year of age and some even lose their mane, or it can become more defined to the head, neck area if they were fluffy all over up until that point.
          It might be that most rabbits (any breed) have their first moult around that age.

            Thanks Jumpy is extremely fluffy under his chin. I am not waiting for him to start shedding his fur. I wonder if most of his weight is because of his fur

              Def see the lion head in him, but hard to say what the other breed could be. He’s adorable, though.
