I'm not all that sure what breed your little guyis, but he looks like he could still be a netherland, just one withlonger ears.

I'll let the more experienced breeders give you more information, so I moved this to the rabbitry section for you.

The Hermelin (aka Pole, Hermine,Ermine)is a small dwarf breed of Europeanrabbit. In the book that I have, the only colorlisted is white.

Your rabbit looks like our Netherland Dwarf.

Your rabbit appears to be a sable or smoke pearl (what color are its eyes?) - blue gray or dark brown?

They are blue grey. i think but in pictures they are always red. i know his mum was white in colouring.

We would call him a smoke pearl in the US.
