She is a Dwarf Mixed Bun. I know that lol I call her just a siamese...

Looks like a mix breed - color blue point. Could I use a photo for my coat color website?

Yeah she is a mix. her mom was a Black Otter Dwarf mix bred to her brother a Fox Tort.
I didn't breed them.

I was just curious to her coloring, and is she actually a siamese?

thank you btw, and Yes you can use one of Mary's picture ^_^

The colour is Blue Point. It's not siamese. That's a cat breed/colour, but in rabbits it's called Himilayan.

thank you lol
yeah, rats. mice, and cats have siamese.
Himalayan in most of those aren't much of a good thing.

Thanks though!

Siamese and Himilayan are just colours... I'm not sure I understand how himilayan in those are bad? They're pretty much the same thing, just different names.

well with Siamese rats and mice there are different colored siamese and himalayans.
Blue, russian blue, mink, seal, so on and so forth.
the siamese factor totally changes the genetics of what you will get in the litter.
Himalayans change it too. and kinda dilute the color.

So if you breed a black to a siamese carrying siamese you'll start out with nice creamy colored babies that will molt and have DARK beautiful points. and then if you do the same thing with a Himi you'll have babies that start out with white babies that molt out with lighter colored points.
the himis are albino (PEW) based, where the siamese are something else (can't remember off the top of my head)

So pretty much the himis are diluters where the siamese aren't so much.

When I looked at the picture I first thought sable point. What is the difference between blue and sable point?
P.S. I thought Himalayan usually has red eyes:?

She only has red eyes in the photos from flash. She has brown eyes though.

The points are why I don't breed himis or anything, confuses me.
rats are easier lol

I thought the same thing. Blue point is the dilute of sable point, but generally looks a little lighter, from what I've seen. She looks like a very clean sable point on my screen. Rattiemattiesrattery- does your rabbit have brown eyes or blue-grey eyes?

Also to clear up any confusion, this rabbit is not Himilayan. Yes, Himis do have red eyes. Their coat color is similar to a sable/blue point, like here. But they have red eyes.

And mistyjr, siamese sable is a much darker shaded color.

She had Brown eyes.


So what would I call Mary is if I were to write it down?
you know like her mom is a Black Otter Dwarf Mix
I would call Mary a?

 

[Sabine]

I think she said brown so wouldn't that make it sable point?

I know that REW - Ruby Eyed White - is what we call "albino" in rabbits...
