REX
The Rex rabbit is a mutation that appeared in litters from normal gray rabbits. In 1919 a farmer named Desire Caillon, of France. He bred them and found that some of the kits had short coats. This drew the attention of M.Gillet and he foreseen of introducing a new class of rabbit.
Fur is to be extremely dense, with length no less than 1/2 inch or more than 7/8 inch. It has a plush fel and a spring resistance to the touch. There are 15 colors of Rex coats that are recognized.
