 After much deliberation we have decide to reduce our Mini Lops here at Tor View, to enable us to concentrate more on the French Lops. any one that as met us will know they are the breed we are so passionate about.

Our Son & Daughter in law, Jason & Lorraine  have very kindly agreed to take over the Breeding of our Mini Lops. we will be keeping the Blue Eyed White project here at Tor View along with just a few Sooty Fawn Does.

They have set up a web site. burybanklops.co.uk we hope you will take a look at there new site & join us in wishing them well with there new venture.

                          Important Notice Please read !!

Here at Tor View we are working hard to improve the  Chocolate French Lop. In 2009 we  introduced out beautiful Stud Buck (Bandit) to the fold but like most Imports he brought with him the Steel Gene.Although I don't intend to go into great detail about our plans I can assure you we are doing our best to eradicate it. Along the way we are producing some Steels & Chocolate Steels.These will be offered for sale & purchasers will be made aware of there status. We have decided to keep a young Steel Buck back purely for Showing. He will not be used any where in our future Breeding program.We are well on our way to achievung our goal it's just going to take a little longer. But to us here at Tor View it's more important to get the correct Size & type in to them than just continually repeat Chocolate, Chocolate matings & making no improvements to the Breed. This colour needs time & dedication to improve to true French Lop Standard

    We are also going through the same process with the Blues

Our Aims

Our intention is to Breed our Rabbits to improve our own show lines, there will be times when we have stock for sale either for Showing, Breeding, or as Pets. If Babies are suitable for showing we will ring them & supply a transfer card Free of charge.We aim to Breed as near to BRC Standards has we can,the French being large & chunky,The Minis being small & cobby.Our main colours in the French will be Blues, Opals, & Agoutis in selfs, & Butterflies, Also working on Chocolates.There will be other colours available at times. The Minis at the moment tend lean towards Sootys, Blacks, & Blues, Rews, & Bews. Babies will be offered for sale when we have decided which we want to keep,for our own lines. ie Future Showing/ Breeding. Please check out our
