The first French Lop was believed to be bred in France in 1853, and was the result of crossing the English Lop, Normandy Giant and Flemish Giant.  In 1960, many imports arrived in England where the French Lop began to take hold.
The French Lop is a massive breed, having the heaviest bone structure of the Lop breeds.  It is the most Noble Beast, yet the Teddy Bear of the rabbit world.
The ears hang close to the head and are usually 15-17" tip to tip.  They have a ram or bulldog-like head which makes them most noticeable.  The skull continues to grow until 25 months of age and the body and fur until 18 months.

MY THOUGHTS
French Lops are most definately a loveable and affectionate breed when given the same.  They make for such amusing characters to watch romp and play when given the chance to open up outside of their cage.  They will litterally kick up their heels and thunder around the room.  And when they are ready for snuggling, save a spot  for this "lap dog" of the bunny world. 
Because of their immensly huge body size and weight, sitting on a wire floored cage can cause sores to their feet.  A solid floor or wire floor with a sitting board will truely make this beast fully content.  A very low maintenance, easy keeper of a pet with no special limited diet.
