Is this a really small runt or a peanut??

[SunnyDayzRabbitry]

This is my first litter of Mini Rex's. but I'm not sure if this kit is a runt or a peanut. It doesn't really look like a peanut except it has really big eyes. So I was wondering what was your thoughts on if its a runt or a peanut. . (It's 3 days old)

Thanks


(Also the kit isn't deformed or anything, it was in a weird position)

Looks like a runt to me

The hind legs seem malformed in the picture and the size difference is quite extreme and for that reason alone I would cull him

Same as Dood...those back legs are not right looking :/

I'd be interested in seeing some more photos. If it's deformed I'd cull it but that's just me.

The ears aren't exactly triangle shaped like I usually see, but they do vary in appearance. Most of mine are perfectly formed except they are small with tiny ears. I would say that this is a peanut.

Definitely a peanut.

It's legs aren't deformed, it was squirming around in my hand and when I took the picture when it was in a weird position. The legs are perfectly fine

looks like a peanut to me, the head....

here is a good picture (not mine, from google)

That domed head is not normal.

Not all peanuts the same, some are very malformed while others look nearly normal - most here seem to agree that this kit is a peanut, you can wait for it to die on its own or cull it now.
