If you mean the rabbits Lop Ear, I am not sure where they come from, but I do know why they are called Lop Ear Rabbits. This is because of their ears falling over the sides of them. In my opinion Lop Ear Rabbits are the cutest breed of rabbits.

Signs of illness in a lop ear rabbit can include lack of appetite, changes in stool quality, lethargy, and unusual sitting or posturing. Lop ear rabbits can experience stomach aches, which may manifest as hunched posture, teeth grinding, or reduced activity. If your rabbit is too weak to move, it is urgent to seek veterinary care as this could indicate a serious health issue that needs immediate attention.


Why does your bunny have one floppy ear?

This is either a cross breed rabbit (erect ear crossed with lop ear), a lop with too strong of ear cartilage (ear cartilage in these breeds in naturally more weak and breaks at a young age so the ears cannot be held above the head), or an erect eared breed that has damage to the cartilage in one ear.


Why are some rabbits are called lop-eared?

Rabbits with lop ears are called so because of a genetic mutation that affects the development of their ear cartilage. This mutation causes the ears to droop or hang down instead of standing upright like those of other rabbits. The lop-eared trait is considered a desirable characteristic in certain rabbit breeds, such as the English Lop and French Lop.

Will a 4wk old lop ear get on with a 9wk old french lop Can I put these 2 together as there is a massive difference in size?

Who in the world sold you a 4 week old bunny? That baby should still be with it's mother. It is too young to be weaned from mom's milk!!Absolutely no.... do not put that baby in with a 9 week old French Lop. It could be stomped to death while the French Lop is simply playing with it. What breed is your lop ear? You do know that lop ear is not a breed don't you???? Holland Lop, Fuzzy Lop, Mini Lop, English Lop? Every rabbit should have it's own cage, this is particularly true of lop breeds. There is nothing sadder to see than a lop eared rabbit with it's ear slashed in two by fighting. My suggestion is to make your 4 week old baby a small 'nest' in a card board box and get a kitten bottle and kitten replacer milk. Try to feed it milk along with it's pellets for at least another week and 2 weeks wouldn't hurt. Please don't buy a bunny that young again. They are more likely to die and/or catch diseases when they do not have their mother's milk to get antibodies from.
