While Fiona, the NZR, (new-zealand-red-fatty-t23572.html?hilit=Fatty) has been moved on to her new home, I kept Evelyn and Timber, who are her Mini Rex crossed children. Both rabbits carry the red markings on their face, but Timber's is the best. While he is not a super body specimen, I love his coloration--he kept more of Fiona's yellow & red recessive coloring. Evelyn has Fiona's body type, and is a very nice agouti, but she has her dad's black undercoat in her agouti. (Blow on them and she's black, he's mostly yellow.)
This summer I'll give them time to grow up! I'd like to breed Timber to both Lexi and Evelyn and see what genetics come calling. Broken agoutis, blacks, and hopefully some reds will come through, while working up a meaty body type. Guess I'll be having fun!!!

They are so close in colour now, and babies change a lot when they grow up when they have coat colours like this.
