I have two pairs of rabbits: two TAMUKs and two New Zealand Reds. The TAMUKs are more heat-tolerant, developed at Texas A&M Kingsville, and have several breeds in their lineage, including New Zealands. The TAMUK doe's first litter has arrived:
The litter had eight, but one fell through the sidewall of the cage to the ground and died. Four weeks later, they have grown.
TAMUKs can have any color, and mixed-color litters are not uncommon. The buck is sort of off-white.
Pretty soon they'll be moving to a grow-out cage of their own. Things are going very well.
