What breed of rabbit is this?!

[TweedBunny]

This was my first rabbit, PJ. I never knew whatkind of rabbit he was. I always thought he was a dutch but now I cansee that wasn't it. Thanks for any help!

It helps if we can have the size of the rabbit -do you have a photo of him/her beside something that would give us asize comparison? Or can you give approximate height and weight?

Definitely not a purebred Dutch, however, he ispart Dutch. Hard to say what he was mixed with. Ilove his ears...so alert.

Gosh, I have no idea when it comes to height or weight....

He was about 1 year old when he died - Im not sure if that means he wasfull grown or not. I have another pic of him on rainbow bridge. I'llpost it here - I think its a better size comparison picture.

Thanks.

This is how big PJ was compared to me. Actuallythis pic was taken when he was about 6-8 months old. By 1 year he was abit bigger.

Im not good with breeds, but I wanted to say PJ was such a beautiful bunny! What a special little guy.

I may be a breeder but I don't know thedifferent breeds of rabbits that well. I'm hoping Pam will see this andchime in - or other breeders who have worked with a larger variety ofbreeds or gone to more shows.

Thanks you guys. Heres a few more pics of him from different angles/ages. Maybe it'd help?

 

[TweedBunny]

Do you think there is any Flemish Giant in him? Like maybe Flemish Dutch Mix?

 

[katt]

i am stil voting part mini rex. . .

look at the shape of the face. . . that is mini rex to me!

 

[Mikoli]

At least part dutch. Maybe a bit mini rex, likekatt said. He looks a little like a flemish giant, but he'd have to bemuch bigger to have a lot of it in him. I don't really know ... he'scute though

No, he's way too small to have flemish mixed inhim. He's definately part dutch, and I agree with Katt thathe may have some mini rex in him.

Mini Rex is a possiblilty, that Rex coat is recessive so the Dutch would cover it up, but definatly no Flemish there.
