Himalayan Weights

The standard states that a senior Himalayan of atleast six months of age should weigh between 2.08 and 4.08, ideally 3.08. Now, I could not imagine having senior Himalayans weighing only 2.08 pounds. In our rabbitry, I prefer rabbits between 3.12 and 3.14. Himalayans weighing closer to the "ideal weight" tend to lack length of body. There is also nothing wrong with a rabbit weighing closer to maximum weight -- as long as the have the length to balance it.
