Faults:
The
Fuzzy lop rabbit club guide says that if the ears are long, thin, narrow
or folded then all 10 points allotted for ears are forfeited.

Long narrow ear.

3 faults; Thin, pointy ear lacking a bit of fur.

|
Long narrow ear with a fold.
The fur typically parts where the fold is. |
I fault this doe
for being long in the face. It also could be said she has a narrow
face. She needs more width from top of head
following down to between the eyes. (There is more distance from the eye to nose than between the
eyes, giving her face a stretched appearance.) Crown is likely slipped.
Nice example of the prominent horseshoe
shape to the crown with thick well furred ears. |

Chocolate Chinchilla Kit lacks fur coverage on ear. I find this more
likely to happen when the ear is thin. I personally have never had a
thick ear with a lack of "regular fur" coverage.
This is a young Jr. that still lacks a massive head.
This is the difficultly showing young Juniors against 5 month old
Juniors.
They have a lot of head development to do. This Junior has nice wide,
open, flat ears with no ear control and the ears are positioned right
behind the eyes.
The Junior is a Chocolate Chinchilla and therefore
is an unrecognized color at ARBA shows.

White
tipped ears are a small color fault and not part of the fuzzy
lop head type. Preferably the ears should be a solid color with
no white (with exceptions to Ruby eye white and Blue eyed white
rabbits).
5 points are allotted for over all color. |
