Hollands and Dwarfs don't breed true. You can breed the same buck to the same doe four different times and get four different results. It's fascinating.

I've tried to recreate Zero multiple times, with no success. I guess he's a one of a kind. Zero is out of THF Saynora's Zinn x Saynora's Cupcake (a four-year-old doe who currently has a litter by Lane!)

Meet Lil' Bit Farms Zinc.

He's THF Saynora's Zinn x Saynora's Cupcake too.

Zinc is pictured just shy of his first birthday.

He's no Zero, but I mean that in a good way. Zero is a tiny buck that needs more body mass to balance that honking head of his. Zinc is a massive buck with a massive head. Same cross, different results.

Always try and remember that patience is a key ingredient to raising rabbits. Don't cull out a buck or doe based on the results (good or bad) of just one litter. Results will vary!
