Breed Description:

The New Zealand rabbit is a medium to large breed that was developed in the United States in the early 1900s. They are known for their distinctive coat, which is thick and soft to the touch, and their strong, muscular bodies. They have a broad head with a short, compact nose and prominent cheekbones, and their ears are medium in length and stand erect.

New Zealand rabbits are known for their energetic and playful personalities, and they are often used as show animals or for meat production. They are also popular as pets due to their friendly nature and ease of care.

In terms of care, New Zealand rabbits require a diet consisting of hay, fresh vegetables, and a small amount of commercial rabbit pellet food. They also need plenty of exercise and should be provided with a large, secure enclosure to play and explore in. They are prone to obesity, so it is important to monitor their diet and provide them with plenty of opportunity to exercise.

Overall, the New Zealand rabbit is a friendly, energetic, and hardy breed that makes a great pet for families with children or for those looking for a show rabbit. They are easy to care for and can adapt well to a variety of living situations, as long as they are given the proper diet, exercise, and attention.
