At about 14.25 pounds, and not full grown, is a Flemish Giant Rabbit. 14 months old, and she will be full grown at 2 years. She weighs about a pound more than the other 3 rabbits combined. We're calling her Minerva ("Mini" for short )
Minerva is the Roman Goddess of Wisdom and Knowledge; the Roman clone of the Greek Goddess Athena, right down to the Owl in her hand. This silver Denarius is of the Emperor Marcus Aurelius, 26 April 121 – 17 March 180 AD. Co-emperor with his adopted brother Lucius Veras (161-169), sole emperor 169-177, and then co-emperor with his son Commodus (177-180). This coin dates from 154-155 AD, when Aurelius was Caesar (sort of Crown Prince) under Emperor Antoninus Pius. He is still known today as the "Philosopher Emperor," for his contributions to Stoic Philosophy in "Meditations".
Remember, she ain't done yet - 10 months to go. Not the biggest in our family; that honor goes to our 11 year old tuxedo grey male tabby cat, at 18 pounds.
If I was going to get a rabbit that is what I would get. My local pet shop used to get one in there every so often and I was always amazed at how big they were.
PM me for the breeder if you want one. We were going to get a baby, but the whole litter died. This bunny wasn't interested in breeding so we got her instead.
Still working on the bun-social integration process. I open the gate about three times a day. Funny, its the little three pounder female (gold) that's fighting her...territory issue...
Pic was this morning...got an hour this afternoon before they started fighting...
My wife watching TV with the rabbit and our biggest cat tonight. Last August, the cat was 17 pounds and 15 ounces. Rabbit is 14 pounds 4 ounces. I guess the rabbit is extra fluffy.
Does that mean the rabbit floats and the cat sinks? Is she made of wood? Is she a witch?
