Hi Hi, this is Sherlock, he's almost 2 years old, and I'm curious about what breed he is. Here are some pictures. Oh, and he's got one blue eye, and one brown, doubt that helps any, but I think it's cool, lol.

He kinda looks like a mix between a mini rex and something else. But the something else could be anything. lol The blue eye means that he has the vienna gene. :) So that means a blue eyed white rabbit was involved in making him. :p

He's cute!
 
Blue eyes can also be a result of Dutch mixes. We occasionally get Dwarf Hotots with 1 or both blue eyes.

Do blue eyes in Dwarf Hotots mean that they can carry for blue?

Dilute (blue banded) dwarf hotots have blue-gray eyes.

China blue eyes in the dwarf hotot are generally due to the Dutch banding gene (The dwarf hotot pattern is created bycombining the english spotting and dutch banding genes).

Mismarks (such as the rabbit pictured) are not uncommon in Dwarf Hotots. We often see a lot of unusual colors and patterns pop up depending on what's been crossed in in the background (often Netherland Dwarf). We've occasionally had REW Dwarf Hotots.
 
He looks like he has the Hotot 'eyeliner', and rather short ears, like a netherland dwarf (hence the blue eyes possibly)or a dwarf hotot, but he definitely looks like he has mini rex in him.

Here's a photo of one of our F1 generation Dwarf Hotot x Mini Rex crosses:

Most had similar body type, although color patterns were different: broken, REW, solid black
