Which of the following is a disqualification (DQ) for rabbits?

  1. Ear mites

  2. Blue eyes

  3. Long whiskers

  4. Large size

The correct answer is: Ear mites

Ear mites are a common, yet serious, condition that can affect rabbits. If a rabbit has ear mites, it is considered a disqualification (DQ) at rabbit shows because it can lead to discomfort and even hearing loss if left untreated. Options B, C, and D are not disqualifications for rabbits as they are common traits and characteristics seen in various rabbit breeds. Having blue eyes, long whiskers, or a large size does not automatically disqualify a rabbit from participating in shows.
