Albino kit
Hi,

One of the new kits is Albino (they are 12 days old). Is is true that they are blind? Has anyone got an albino rabbit?

Re: Albino kit
Ive had more than one. Their eyesight doesnt appear to be as good, but they arent completely blind.

Many people dislike REW's

I must admit that I am not as keen on them, they scare me slightly!!! My boyfriend reckons that one will be hard to re-home the poor little thing

They can be. I had the odd one or two, and ended up keeping them.

I used to breed BEW's.

It's a recessive gene, and can be carried by any colour. Both mum & dad must carry it to have produced one.
