Drama, Drama, Drama

​Recently I have heard of several wonderful breeders leaving Mini Lops due to the drama surrounding them between breeder and breeder. Sadly this is an issue not only with Mini Lops, but every breed in every species. People seem to forget that for the most part, many of us are breeding for the love of the breed, to improve and better the breed. How does it better the breed if breeders cannot work together on this, rather they waste their time and energy fighting eachother?


At times there are those who feel "forced out" due to this drama and consistantly being beat on the table. Those who have been told over and over again by other breeders that their animals are nothing but pets. The problem being is that we as more experienced, long term breeders need to remember is that we all started out somewhere. Some of us started with the best stock possible, some of us did not. But ALL of us have made mistakes along the way and ALL of us have had that litter turn out less then desirable.


Rather than beating one breeder down over and over again, why not lift them up? Help them out? Offer a breeding. ENCOURAGE! Another thing to remember is no matter how wonderful and amazing your animals are, there is someone out there that has more amazing and wonerful rabbit than you!


To the newbies in this breed, dont get discouraged. Dont sell out because one or two people have said nasty things. Your only giving them what they want. Dont listen to drama and rumors. Most rumors are started out of jealousy. I have learned this first hand.


Sadly the integrity of our breeders in all breeds and species seems to have been lost. This is so very heartbreaking. Let's support eachother for the love of the breed! Let's squash this rumor that Mini Lops are drama infested. Let's take a moment and learn from one another
