Hi! I’m just wondering what coats my rabbits are? The white ones seemed very obvious to be REW to me (especially since they have red eyes) but some lady is claiming they are pointed whites because of the slight darker tipping on their ears. Their mom is a REW mini lop and their father is a black tort Lionhead, and the whole litter is the same coat. The gray colored one I was thinking something along the lines of chinchilla, but I don’t know for sure. If she is chinchilla, I don’t know what kind (chocolate, blue, lilac, etc). She is a purebred mini lop (mom is either a lynx or fawn, we weren’t 100% sure, and dad is a chestnut).

The white ones look like pointed whites to me - probably agouti pointed whites. If they have any color on them at all, they aren't REW - REWs are true albinos and can't produce pigment. Pointed whites are born solid white with red eyes and slowly get their color as they age, though as these look like agouti pointed whites they probably won't get as dark as normal pointed whites.
The gray one is some shade of chinchilla. Maybe a black chinchilla (which is often just shortened to "chinchilla"), maybe a seal chinchilla or sable chinchilla.
