My frenchie is almost 8 mos and he has some more growing to do. By the time they hit one year you can expect them to stay that size and the only thing that will get bigger is their waist

A Netherland can be fully grown around 4-5 months while a Flemish might not be fully grown until 12 or 15 months old. Lionheads would reach the full size around 6 months. They might full out a fit after that, but not too much. If Blossom is 2.5 pounds at 6 months, she probably won't get too much bigger. If course over feeding can cause weight gain, so you do need to monitor the weight and food intake to avoid a fat rabbit.

Our Checkered Giant , Serena, was about six months old when she was acquired. I was told she was full grown, but she continued to enlarge for another six months and 11 pounds. She's big enough to saddle now.
