"The ears are falling! The ears are falling!"
They started droopin' yesterday-ish and are about 1/2 down today. She can still raise em all the way up but can't keep 'em up. I was thinkin' they "lopped" earlier than 9wks of age but maybe not...
*BIG GRIN* A loppie!!
:D She *IS* Sophie-sent!!! :D
Sophie wanted to make the loppy-ears a bun surprise!! :D She is SO cute with her ears either way...but I must admit those loppy ones are even cuter! :D
I say to NOT lop. I feel no animal should be altered for mearly a cosmetic reason, spaying/neutering have health and population control benefits.
I think they should look just like Mother Nature intended. :)
Oh, this *is* how mother nature intended....Zippy-kat didn't do anything to alter her ears! They are just flopping down naturally!Quote:

I thought "lop or not lop" was referring to cropping for dogs. I was trying to think why would anyone want to alter a bunnies ears.
zippy-kat, I am sorry that I may have read your intention on the post.
Awwww what a cute "floppy" eared bunny! Guess she's not an "upie" eared bunny afterall! He ears never were *straight* up though. They were kind of diagnol, and are now going down. I never knew floppy eared rabbits don't have floppy ears when babies!
Please note that lopped ears are natural, just sometimes it takes longer for some rabbits ears to lop than other. You can't make a rabbits ears lop, if they lop they lop, if they don't, they don't.
Zippy, in answer to your question. I think I'II let my rabbits decide.
Bunny says.....
Definately lop

Cadbury (right) says Not lop and Twinkle (left) isn't sure!

So over here we say, it doesn't matter as we are divided in opinion.
:D
I just knew Miz Sophie had a paw in this. Piper is cute no matter how she decides to wear her ears. I had a dog that was half shepherd and half beagle and her ears did the up down thing. She finally ended up with ears that stood up but the tips lopped over.:D
Mz. Piper looked at herself in the mirror and said "oh, what lovely ears you have - what does the other side look like?"
And down the ears went......
And Mz. Piper said, "you should wear them down because they look so beautiful with your eyes."
And Miz Sophie smiled and smiled................
Apparently, She says "LOP" MOM!
youbetcha she is Sophie sent!!
adorable!
I think she looks cute no matter what! Everyone here has such cute bunnies. I want to see more pictures of bunnies!!
O she looks so cute either way!!!!! What an adorable bun girl! You really have a blessing on your hands, definitly sent from gods special angel.
Ash
*LOL* Heather!!!
I think Piper is just the cutest!! Either way her ears decide to fall... or don't fall.....;)
I think she will cute if her ears decide to lop or not.:)
Oh, that Miz Sophie is surely working her heavenly magic!!:) But now that we've determined that her ears are definitely on the descent, do they ever go back uP???;)

Billie says : LOL , I love ALL bunnies :D :D :D (even the "red-eyed"ones ...)
Zippy,
I had a lot of time off for the holidays (and therefore from POTD)so I am JUST discovering that you have a new bunny friend! I can't tell you HOW THRILLED I am!!!! :D :D :D
Piper is just adorable and I am so very happy for you! Eventually a pic of my buns will be posted and you will note that Robbie has what we call "helicopter" ears.......although they are never UP they don't lie flat to his head either....they sorta just stick out at an angle...not quite horizontal to the floor. he is just too cute, even though he acts like I beat him twice a day and three times on Sundays. ;)
Me too!! Me too!!! I had no idea that Sophie had sent you a new bunny friend, Tonya!!!! :D :D :D I'm dancing with joy, and I say "lop" or "no lop", it doesn't matter!! Piper is adorable!!!! :) And Heaven sent is always the best!!!! :)Quote:

I haven't visited the Pet portion much lately...congrats on the new bunny!!! She is adorable!!1
She is SO CUTE!!! More pics please!!! :D
Naomi took the words outta my mouth! I was going to request more pics too!!!
Piper is just adorable, lop, no lop, even if she had no ears at all, she'd still be the cutest thing ever!! :)
CONGRATULATIONS Zippy on your new bunny!!! :D :D :D I just found out too!
I knew about Piper, but hadn't seen this thread before. Lop or not, she's adorable both ways (and definately Sophie sent;) )
