Does anyone own a NO mane lionhead rabbit? ( a lionhead with no mane) if so please give me a discription of your rabbit.
if it has NO MANE it is not a true lion head
to get the lion head rabbits people crossed dwarf rabbits with angora rabbits breeding to get the manes now it is true that males have more of the mane like look then the females for the most part but both sexes should have a mane to some extent
if you get a lion head that has no mane and just has the shaggy fur it is to close to going back to only having the angora traits and should be culled or not used for breeding culled means to only go to a pet home not killed culling mainly means NOT USED IN BREEDING STOCK
also if you get a baby that gets NO mane what so ever that baby is to close to the dwarf gens and should be culled from breeding
