I'm still guessing that it may be an English Spotting/Dutchgene combination.

English Spotting alone normal results in a white tail and completely white feet.

However, I can't rule out the Dutch marking gene alone as one of thehomozygous variations (duw duw) can produce a spotting effect similarto the English Spotting gene. (However -- due to the smaller dwarf typeof the rabbit, I don't think this is the case).

Howmany standard colors are there for Dutch rabbits? We were inSuper Petz this weekend and saw some that were all differentcolors: Tan, Brown, Grey, Black (all mixed with the white, ofcourse). They were so adorable and VERY energetic.They were binkying all over the case they had them in.

There are 6 accepted colors in the ARBA standard: black, blue,chocolate, tortoise, gray (chestnut agouti)andsteel. "Golden" (fawn)and "blue-gray" (opal) arecommon colors that are not accepted.

Why Amy....of course it looks like some of those. It has ears....a nose....whiskers....fur...a tail.

Yes, I'm being sarcastic...I'm sorry. I'm really only kidding! HONEST! :angel:

However, I don't think this person really knows what they're talking about based on their posts I've been reading so far....

LOL Amy :sunshine:

Being able to rule certain breeds out does indeed narrow down the list of possibilities.

[s2andm2]

I know he's not a showbun, and he's not a minilop or a flemish, I haven't come across any pics that are remotly likehis markings exept for the english spottings, and even that, my bun isnot a full english spot. Keep giving more buns to comparemarkings too, thanks, your all a lot of help.

 

[s2andm2]

At first I thought maybe mixed with a Rex????

 

[s2andm2]

I was just searching some of the different threads and I think I found one that looks like his half breed.
