Vienna mark Holland lop

Question
Hello ,
I have a BEW Holland lop, can I breed her with her brother?
Is it best to breed her with a Vienna marked or just another BEW?
I'm considering breeding her once every six months.
How can I learn about recognizing Vienna marks?
Thank you
Gio

Answer
Dear Giovanna,

It is never advisable to breed siblings together, and even moreso when dealing with a highly inbred variety such as Holland Lops.  It's just asking for birth defects and very sad problems.  

For all you really need to know about breeding, please see:

I hope it helps.
