It will be harder to get those bigger, heavier ears up...the breeder should shave them at least for you to start..once they are taped, I put Bitter Apple on them so the others leave them alone. If a flop ear is 100% out for you..I would rethink my buy..BUT if you are willing to work on them, they have a decent chance to stand IMO. If either parents have flops ears the chances are very reduced, but if both are up, that increases your chances..

PS..I saw the males ears are flopped..that is a big mistake to use a flop earred stud IMO..Sorry, I am having a very tell it like it is day!!
