I have fostered lots of different breeds of rabbit and they are all have their own personalities. But the friendlest one I have ever fostered is a mini rex, who will be going to his new home on Sunday
I think a lot of it isn't so much the breed of rabbit but, how much it is interacted with from a baby, I also think consistency in their lives is obviously important. If you have any breed from a kit and it learns from you and understands things 'your way' so to speak doesn't necessarily make it more intelligent that another rabbit that has just been left sat in a hutch most of the time on it's own. Although saying that, I have an English crossed lop and she is sooooo switched on, to the point of coming when called on day 2 of having her here. She is really clever. Females I think are possibly a bit more switched on :lol:
I had 2 dwarf lops initially, one was a bit grumpy the other was soppy on the ground, but not overly snuggly. Then I had an angora type incredibly long fur, she was ok with me, wanted nose rubs and stuff, but didnt like people in her territory and would bite dads ankles on a regular basis. Then I had another dwarf lop (ok I love them) and he again was great with me, not so great with others. My current bunny is apparently dwarf x mini lop ( I think he's just dwarf, ish), possibly the most soppy friendly rabbit Ive ever known. He not only runs up to you for nose rubs all the time he actually enjoys cuddling up on your lap or in your arms. He is happy just snuggling up with me wherever, never scratches or jumps when you pick up and put down. Im never going to find another bun quite like him, he's certainly very special. Poor thing, had to clean his bottom the other day after he randomly had sticky poo bum and he just lay in my arms whilst I did it, no fidgeting and when I put him back up the right way, he just wanted to snuggle.
Aww, thats a shame
Hope he has a good time at his new home, but I bet he will miss you.
He's going to a great home VikkiVet on here is having him, so I will get lots of photos and updates.
