The fur of the Jersey Wooly is available in agouti (chestnut, chinchilla, opal and squirrel), pointed white (black or blue markings), self (black, blue, chocolate, lilac, blue-eyed white and ruby-eyed white), shaded (sable point, seal, Siamese sable, smoke pearl, tortoiseshell, and blue tortoiseshell) and pattern (black otter, blue otter, silver marten, sable marten, and smoke pearl marten) color groups. A small rabbit, Jersey Wooly weighs about 3 pounds and has a rounded, compact body.
A very small bunny, an adult Jersey Wooly Rabbit will only weigh up to about three pounds. This little rabbit is noted for being extremely gentle. They are sweet and docile, as well as smart.
The Jersey Wooly Rabbit likes people and affection. It enjoys companionship and being petted and handled. They are calm, quiet rabbits that are pretty easy to care for. All these great qualities make an ideal pet for children and adults alike.
Jersey woolies may have an easy care coat when compared to larger angora breeds, but they need a bit more grooming than your average domestic rabbit. A good brushing every week will keep the adult Jersey in great shape. Younger rabbits (5 months and under) will likely need grooming roughly twice as often.
While grooming be certain to check eyes, ears and bottom of signs of irritation. Also check nails and trim if necessary and check for evenly worn teeth. Malocclusion is a condition where the teeth do not lign up properly and they may become overgrown, causing difficulty eating. Your veterinarian should be able to show you how to properly trim teeth if your rabbit suffers from this condition.
