The British Rabbit Council sets the standard to which the Mini Rex is bred and judged at a show. The Breed Standards Book contains detailed descriptions of all the breeds which are recognised in the United Kingdom by the British Rabbit Council and is readily available from the BRC. Every serious Mini Rex breeder has studied and pays great attention to the Breed Standard.
The Broken Mini Rex has an additional Breed Standard which contains details concerning the Pattern of the Broken Mini as seen below. |
