Okay so I am confident that Jade is a Black Otter however I still am confused to whether Dakota is a fawn, tortoise broken etc. I have had many breeders say different things!

These photos are of her a year ago, but her colouring is the same reasonably except spots of grey around her eyes sometimes.


Thanks!

It sounds like you have some of the color terms confused. Black otter is a color, just like fawn and tortoise. Your rabbit is not black otter. She is tort otter (also referred to as "fox"). This is not a recognized color in Netherland Dwarfs, so she is not showable at ARBA shows. Broken (spotted) and solid (no spots) are color patterns. Your rabbit is a solid.

So, solid tort otter or solid fox, depending on the term you prefer.
