How do you like your ears?

Your rabbit's ears that is! I love my ears massive and upright. The bigger the ears the better but they HAVE to be upright What do you like?????

I like mine long and droopy, our gixmo's is sooo long they fold back on the floor. love em.
Same with roman he has super long lugs hehehe

Uppy!! But I'm sure you already know that, we have the same taste in rabbits ha

Loppy ones but neither of mine have them

Bridge bun Jem had gorgeous loppy ears and loved them being stroked

Like 'em up! Lil Loll's got cute lugs, cute scut too!

Riley and Starry were crossbred lops but had upright ears... broad like a lop but uppity! When Riley was happy (ie EATING) his right ear drooped to stick out sideways... silly buck!

Lop!! but i guess we all like what we have!! although i did want a lop before i had buttons, they are just so cute and expressive!!

Up where they belong!

I love it when Holly lays hers to the sides like helicopters

Oh I do love big bunny ears!!! One of my bunny nieces who I bonded into a group is a Flemish giant and she has the most enormous ears!!!

My favourite are lops - but all my lops are angels now I have two with half-up half-down and the rest are all up-ears.

I do think though that up ears are far more expressive!! Harvey and Max can tell me whole stories with their ears

Uppy - all the way.

I especially love it when ears look like they have a hairstyle going on all of their own!

I'm not bothered, up or down or one ear stuck up and one down as long as a bunny is attached to them that's ok

I'm with you there Maysie! I do have a soft spot for 'helicopter ears' tho

A mixed response there!



LilyGrace - we do have the same rabbity taste



Vince and Faline are lop crosses, lately Vince has been lopping both his ears and I don't like it:roll: I think it makes him look grumpy. I just don't 'get' the lop look, still, as Maysie said, as long as there is a bunny attached....

Lop! Thumper's ear movements are hilarious, it looks like they are trying to walk sometimes.

She moves them in front of her eyes sometimes too. Only one at a time tho, like she's checking it's still there

Luna has been doing this, pretending she is a lop! It is quite cute and I guess it means she is relaxed which is nice ...maybe she is a lop cross too as she is a mix breed..hmm

genius response, I agree

In my research for the HM article on congenital breed issues, I've made some quite startling discoveries about Lops...watch this space

I love Tiggers uppy ears, one black and one orangey.

I also love Jeeves' how they just flop round his face and have quite a lot of bounce in them like Michael McIntyres hair

But then I also love those long long floppy ears that just lay along the floor.

My favourites though have to be helicopter ears! They're just all over the place

I'd never had a lop before Florence, and now I'm in love with them. I like the helicopter look too!

Although I do also have a soft spot for netherland dwarf ears. My first bunny was a nethie and his ears were gorgeous.

I would LOVE to see that!!
'oh thank god it's still there'

Now see, I just don't like that at all, now long long ears that are upright, bring it on!



I like nethie ears but they are tooooooooooooooooooooooo small

I love allsorts really, as others said as long as there's a bunny attached!

I don't like how the ears laying down is so very unnatural, I just like how it frames their faces and can make them seem clumsy.

Big upright ears never fail to amaze me!

Mine have all had uppy ears which I generally prefer ....... however, Gloria was a lop and her ears were all over the place and if she got a fright or a scent of food, they had a life of their own and made me laugh so much.
