This is a rex doe approximately 2 months old. I would appreciate any opinions on her regarding confirmation and type. She was not posing very well so I apologize ahead of time. Thank you ahead of time for any input!

I hope I am posting this in the correct part of the forum. I am hoping to get some insight from other breeders. What would you do? So long story short I have been line breeding a nice line of rexes for a number of generations now. The positives of this line is they have nice coats, pretty...
