If you tell me where you are located, I'll bet that there is a minirex breeder nearby that will let you breed to a buck for nothing. I currently have 17 adult minirex bucks in all colors and this is usually no problem. Especially, the issue is with pedigrees...if the person with the doe doesn't want a pedigreed litter, then there is really not a problem. Mini Rex breeders are everywhere and they are usually very receptive to people with Pet Mini's.  As for your original question, yes. That would work..but you can breed her to any adult male rabbit and get offspring for pets. The doe is what regulates the birth size of the babies, not the size of the male. If you want more Mini Rex, you can breed your doe to any male rabbit, then keep a little buck from her litter. (All babies will have the longer, normal (non-rex) fur.) When he is about 5 months old, breed him back to her, and 50% of the forthcoming babies will be rex coated and look like original Mini Rex. There are no genetic problems with breeding a son back to mother in rabbits, as the domestic rabbits are genetically strong, and there are few lethal genes. The only lethal gene in Minirex is the 'double dwarf' gene, which causes very small runts who rarely survive. However, you'll find about one in six of these, regardless of whether the parents are related or not.... I hope I am not being insensitive to your situation. I have a large rabbitry and have raised rabbits for 30+ years. I usually produce more than 200 babies a year on the low side , and ~300 on the high side...so this gets a little more regular for me... Let me know what town/city you are located in, and I'll try to surface a local club or breeder for you to contact.  Regards, Steve

As you can see in an excerpt from the initial answer I previously sent...."As for your original question, yes. That would work..but you can breed her to any adult male rabbit and get offspring for pets. The doe is what regulates the birth size of the babies, not the size of the male."
Hope that clarifies it. You may indeed breed her to a somewhat larger rabbit.  Regards, Steve
