Common questions

Are Britannia Petites good pets?

For experienced owners, yes. They are very active and can be flighty, so they suit quiet adults more than families with small kids.

What health checks should a Britannia Petite have?

Check teeth for malocclusion. Ask about RHDV2 vaccination and any E. cuniculi history in the herd.

What does full-arch mean?

A body type where the back curves in a smooth arch from neck to tail, showing the rabbit standing up on its front legs.
