Flemish Giant/ Dutch

Question
I am considering adopting a flemish giant/dutch mixed rabbit. How big can I expect he/she to be when fully grown and would he most likely be on the smaller side or the larger side, and if so, how large?

Answer
Dear Maggie,

Because body size is controlled by more than one gene, it is often difficult or impossible to predict the final adult size from a cross like this one.  Dutch rabbits vary a great deal in size, with some being about 3 lbs, and others close to 7-8.

That said, it's likely that the bunny will be intermediate in size between the two breeds.  There is just no way to predict exactly *how* intermediate, but time will tell.  :)

Hope that helps.
