Is that a Devon rabbit (actual name for a bunny) friends of ours used to have one. Bloomin great thing he was.

[captainbovine]

I think it's called a German Giant or something like that.

I think he's great!! I'd love one

[ed_blackadder_1]

That's it, giant, only they called theirs a Devon Giant for obvious reasons  (they lived in Devon).  heavy begger when it sat on your lap.

Aww i love the bunnies ,  not for the pot though i just couldnt do that 🙂

I've actually seen slightly bigger than that.  I think you'll find it's a Flemish Giant.  Crossed with a Belgian hare they are a real handful in more ways than one.  My late father had one and it had eight kittens - the correct name for a baby rabbit.  It was during the war years and he decided to move the run to a new position of the garden daily so that he wouldn't have to buy food for them.  In less than a week, there wasn't a single blade of grass left - not even the roots were left!  They - all rabbits, have exceedingly long stomachs.  They'd eat 24/7 if they could - that's why you have to regulate it.  We had one - a lop eared white, and that ate as though there was no tomorrow.  I don't know about the Flemish Giants, but a standard rabbit  will last about six and a half years.
