I'm useless to tell you where to look, just to say don't give up. 

 

I used to attend the annual pet show at Queen Sirikit Exhibition Center, and every year they had a bunch of huge rabbits on display.

And if you go chasing rabbits
And you know you're going to fall
Tell 'em a hookah-smoking caterpillar
Has given you the call

Feed your head!

In Belgium they are very common ...a race called "Flemish giants " 

 

They really become big ....and beside a a tiny Thai girl the effect becomes  multiplied ....

 

Flemish Giant Rabbit

By Lori Soard

SOURCE https://small-pets.lovetoknow.com/rabbits/flemish-giant-rabbit

The Flemish Giant is also called the "king of rabbits" because of his large size, longevity, and personality. These giant rabbits can reach an immense size very quickly. By seven or eight weeks of age, Flemish giants can already weigh four pounds or more. A Flemish rabbit is a sweet, lovable companion that can be kept inside, and he blends well into family life.

Not much help from forum members so far, I've located a white in Issan (14,000bht), and a brown in Bangkok (14,000bht), but ideally I'm after a female Blue like the photo I posted.

 

@Meat Pie, that would have been a very expensive lunch.

Both of these are around 6Kg.

Do you plan to keep it indoor in AC?

 

Generally big furry animals don't thrive well in the Thai heat.

Most animals here, from pigeon, cats, squirrels and even rats, etc, are smaller than their Nordic cousins.

House pets, the doors are open they wander around as they like.

My current normal Thai rabbit (under 1kg) does come and sit on the tiles when it's hot, as did my last (white NZ) one.

They don't have any problems with the heat but like all rabbits are most active at dawn and dusk.

Thailand has 2 native rabbit species, Thai the one I already have (brown/white).

And Issan (black/white, enormous ears)
