How much should a dwarf lop weigh? U/D Frida is a frenchie!

Lots of people have mentioned how big Frida, our baby lop, seems. When we took her in we were told that she was a dwarf lop but I'm not too sure. She is almost as long as our Bracken already and has massive feet. I now think she might be a dwarf french cross.

She is now 14 weeks old. I haven't weighed her lately but I will do tonight.

Can anyone tell me what weight a dwarf lop should be at 14 weeks? I have been told that a frenchie should weigh 1.9kg to 2.3kg at this age and she's not that big.

Thanks
 
The min weight of a dwarf lop adult is2.041 kg [ 4lb 8 ounces]
max weight adult is 2.381 [ 5lb 4 ounces.
Many people think when buying dwarf lops that there small, in truth there not the mini lpo is the smallest at max weight 4lb 5 ounces. val
 
I did think she was rather big - Gus is a fairly big dwarf lop and he was a lot smaller than her at the same age

I weighed her last night and she already weights 2kg! So it looks like she is more french lop than anything else. Time to change the kitchen around again so she has more room!
 
My Dwarf Lop X became a French Lop X at about 12 weeks, when she didn't stop growing!! She's 6 months old now & is MASSIVE :shock: :lol:
