it might be a little bit early to decided but who do you think I should keep? Their all very friendly.

(Grigio) blue eyed Vienna probably chinchilla buck. he’s the biggest. I think he has the longest ears which is good and he has the shortest fur.

you can kind of see the size difference. All the names are Italian. Paola means small and is the mother of the king of Belgium, Bianco means white, and Grigio means gray. The reason I choose Italian names is because I want all rabbits related to their mother, kaly (it’s actually kali and it means black in hind or cali in Latin means beautiful) to have names that means something in a language other then English so all of Kaly’s babies will have Latin names and all her babies’ babies will have names in a different languages etc. I probably going to keep Grigio but I still want to know what you guys think. I’m breeding for meat so keep that in mind.
 
If you're going to show them then you can't show any because they either have VM marks or blue eyes
 
Their size now is not so important so maybe see who gains the most? Bianco is very very cute. I would say try not to let that influence you... Actually evaluate them with your eyes closed at 3 months. See who has the meatiest loin and hind legs.

I say all that, but I would have to work very hard not to want to keep Bianco. You may want to keep that in mind and not accidentally make him a pet, just in case. :)
 
I weighed them today and Paola was 119 grams Bianco was 127 grams and Grigio was 160 grams. I will continue weighing them and see who grows the fastest. I don’t know when I'm going to start selling them but when I do I will definitely evaluate them.
