The head is a very important part of a show rabbit. Jersey Wooly heads should be large and well furred.
A 'wool cap' is fur that extends from the base of the ears to between the eyes, this fur stands up and is longer then the rest of the fur on the face.
Side trimmings are the furs that extend down from the cheeks to below the chin.
Because of this square look, Jersey Wooly heads are affectionately called
"Mug Heads"
