Rabbits Breed?

[AussieBun]

HI, I'm not for sure if this is allowed or not but if not (if there is a way), I will delete it as soon as I know.

Does anybody know what breed my rabbit Oliver looks like? I don't have him right now, but I will soon, so I can't tell you his size. We are thinking Chinchilla Rabbit/American mix, but does anyone think he is something else? :bunnyhop:

Thanks in advance!

Neither chinchillas or americans carry broken color pattern(the white body markings), so there must be something else mixed in.

There isn't a whole lot that isn't allowed on here. So don't worry and ask whatever you like

Welcome to RT!

Cute bun. His head and ears look New Zealand-like, but chances are, you will never really know what he is a cross of. Too many rabbits look a lot alike, and if he is a multi-generational cross, it gets ever harder to tell.

:yeahthat: but it's always fun to try :mrgreen:

Only Flemish Giants are shown in such a light grey, other breeds require a darker grey with more black ticking and his ears do seem a bit big for his head so I think he might have some Flemish in him.

I assume you think American as he has a semi-arch / mandolin body shape, it's hard to tell in these pictures and we'll need a side profile to tell for certain, but Flemish have a similar body shape

He does have NZ-like ears, and goodness, look at those lovely black eye lashes!!

I just realized...doh...my avatar bun.

Benny is a New Zealand- check out the ears and head shape.

Here is a picture of my Flemish Giant and New Zealand Cross



its a little blurry- his pedigree: All on his sire line are Flemish Giant and the Dam line is all New Zealand

Thanks guys! I appreciate all the replies! He does look like he has some Flemish in him. I never noticed really!

Also, here is a side picture of his brother. They look the same but Oliver has more gray on him than Monty.

Oh my goodness, they're both so cute!

You know what... I just realized I moved somebody's topic a few days ago, and forgot to give them a link. I hope they found it!

Thank you

I have no clue what his breeding might be, but he's 100% adorable. I don't think I've seen that shade of gray before.
