the havana

Background:
Havana rabbits originated in Europe and were first bred in Holland in 1898. Though the actual original parentage is uncertain, it is known that they first showed up in the litter of a female Dutch Rabbit. Who the father was, however, is simply not known. They were introduce into the United States in 1916 and in Eastern Canada in the 1980's.
Description:
These guys are considered to be a medium breed rabbit and will weigh between 4.5 to 6.5 lbs. when full grown. They have a short, rounded body, fairly short upright ears and short soft dense fur that is easy to care for.
