How much would you pay for a I am selling one of my litters
of Flemish Giants at the local
fair for the first time, and I
was wondering what I should
charge for them and what
people would be willing to
pay. I was thinking some where
around $35. Too high, too low,
or just right?

Well, if they are nice quality and show good conformation. (I would do a guaranteed health check...but that's just me)...I would pay upwards of $50.00. If they are show quality, have excellent temperaments and have a free breeding, I'd pay upwards of $100.00. Now...if you could potty train the rabbits for indoor living (in a litter box) I know people who would pay $150.00 and up for one. |

explain to me the difference they are so alike people say
their relationship is like the
difference between american
and british english. most of
the differences are in
pronunciation, i know.
but what i would like to know
are some things that make them
different languages. flemish
uses some different phrases
than dutch. could you tell me
some?
also, pronunciation
differences, and what is
probably easier for a person
to learn. personally i think
it might be flemish but i dont
really know.

Dutch is spoken in the Netherlands (along with loads of dialects), and Flemish is spoken in Flanders, which is in Belgium. The difference between the two is that Flemish has got lots of French influences (vocabulary, accent), and the Flemish for example use the word ''gij/ge'' (you), whereas the Dutch just use ''jij/je''. They also use the formal form of you (u) a lot more, even when they're speaking to toddlers. They use loads of words that we don't use, but I can't really think of any. Flemish tv shows are always shown with subtitles on Dutch tv. However, this doesn't mean the Dutch can't understand the Flemish. We can, though sometimes there are a few unknown words. Standard Dutch is being taught in schools, so they can speak both Flemish and Dutch. |
