Is Tiny Tim an English Spot Mix?

[RunRabbitRun]

I am guessing Tiny Tim is an English Spot mix, but I really have no idea.

There are many breeds that have a similar coat pattern - could be a Mini Rex mix.

It's hard to tell from the picture, but he ismuch larger than my mini rex and lacks the typical rex fur. Ithink he's cute, whatever he is, he is supposed to be 3 years old, hisprevious owner got him from a pet store.

He doesn't look like any purebred to me and petstore bunnies are often mixes anyways. He does look like the many minirex mixes I've seen, like Pam suggested.

Could be part english spot,might also be partmini rex,crossing mini rex with normal furred rabbits results in normalfurred rabbits.bluebird

Ear carriage to me suggests amixwithsome type of Lop... possibly Mini Lop. Hiscolor would be referred to as a Broken Castor.

I know there are some breeders working on developing Plush Lops (MiniRex crossed with Lop). First generations are Normal furred,even though the carry the recessive gene for Rex fur.

I agree that there is a good posibility that lopcould be in the mix. Being able to feel the coat would tellus a lot.
