| Rebecca's Rabbitry English Lop Blue Eyed Whites I started working on my Blue Eyed White project in March 2010. They are coming along much faster than I anticipated!

| English Lops The Search for "True Blue" Eyed Whites: |
| To start my project in March 2010, I used a Blue Eyed White (BEW) Mini Lop to introduce the Vienna gene into the English Lop bloodlines. The trio that produced the F1 generation: I bred the BEW Mini Lop doe first to RD's Mason Dixon. That litter arrived on April 23, 2010 and I saved a buck and doe. The next litter I bred the BEW Mini Lop doe to RD's Big Blue Soldier and they arrived June 13, 2010. |
