She She is not a Belgium and the buck is a Dutch. I would be very wearily of this breeders they obviously don't know what they are breeding and may lack knowledge in many other areas. Be sure your kit isn't taken away from its mother before 8 weeks and do lots of your own research to find out what your rabbits needs are. Unfortunately some breeders don't know much about rabbits and misinform New pet owners.
Here are some useful links links to help you gain reliable information

Maybe a checkerd giant? Don't think
She has the color on/around her nose though.

I can ask the pervious owners( that's where she is
At now with her kits) for a pic of her face and a estimate
Of what they think she weights.

 

[hannaroo]

I would just allow maximum space for accommodation to make sure whatever weight your bunny ends up its needs are met and allow for the cost of a giant rabbit although it is likely to be medium to large size if bred with a dutch

 

[NDrAbBiTs58041]

She's about 6 pounds roughly.

 

[NDrAbBiTs58041]

Not for sure on the weight. Guess from
6-10 pounds. Here's a pic of her face.

Could she be a New Zealand?
They're pretty popular rabbits. But they come in a red/orange color right? Maybe she's a broken orange NZ? Or maybe a NZ crossed with something, since she is on the larger size?
That would be my guess, but I'm not great with breeds!

English Spot?

 

[RabbitGirl101]

This is an english spot. Look at ARBA for more opinions(it may vary on your country there is different names in different countries)

 

[NDrAbBiTs58041]

Yeah that's what she looks like in away.
There are other pics of her on the other pages.
I would say prob a English spot then? She has spots
Like that. Not as much on her sides like this one in the pic
But she does have the solid line of orange on her back
Like his one does with the solid black down the back.

 

[RabbitGirl101]

Would she look more like this one?

The one I posted before had heavier spotting down the side but it varies with each rabbit

I think you're relying too much on her coat color pattern when trying to ID her breed when her color actually occurs in many breeds of rabbits. You need to be looking more at her body shape. If you can take and post pictures where she's better posed once you have her, some of our members might be better able to guess what breed(s) she is.

English spots are an arched breed.
TONS of rabbits come in broken patterns, and English spots have very specific pattern.
I really wish people would stop assuming every broken pattered rabbit is a English Spot or Checkered Giant.

Odds are your rabbit is mix. Could be a mix or 2 or a mix of many. It is often very tough to determine exactly what breed a mixed rabbit is due to how many varieties look so similar.

 

[NDrAbBiTs58041]

No she doesn't look like this one at all.
This one is much thiner and the stripe down
The back doesn't look like that either. The stripe on this one is thiner

Please don't get upset. I'm asking what people
Think what kind she is. Please keep a open mind.

If you would like better opinions, you will need to post photos of your rabbit properly posed and under proper lighting.

I will also ask you keep your querys to 1 topic. Please do not create a new topic for the same issue or question with the same rabbit.

And my comment was directed at those who have suggested your rabbit is an English spot. Sarah did an excellent job with an educational video to show people the broken rabbits out there. Its a shame such an amazing breed of rabbit gets its breed tossed around to every other spotted rabbit out there.

I get that. I wasn't getting responses from it.
Sorry if that's against ur rules.

Yep

It's just going to be a guess on our part. Your buck is definitely a Dutch, but the doe looks to me to be a combination of 2+ breeds. Once you have her home then take some better pictures and weigh her and we'll see. Right now, from what I see, no one breed stands out in her coloring or type.

Now the reason I am looking at her coat pattern is because of the specific pattern which is a personal trait of the English Spot. Yes I know the body has an important role in the ID of the breed, and yes this rabbit is most likely a mix, but like stated before sometimes in different breeds they have specific qualities to them that are just as important as the other features like the head, body type, fur type, and the coat pattern is also important, like in a Tan, Checkered Giant, English Spot, Dutch, ect. Yes Other breeds have patterns like the tan, and the spotting like and English Spot, but it is a good start to figuring out thee breed.
I for sure wasn't assuming, just basing my opinion off several rabbit from rabbit shows I attend (breeder and shower here) and the rabbit seemed similar to the rabbits I have seen at shows.

I know about broken patterns, I raise Holland Lops in many different colors, and broken is not a lacking color/pattern in my small herd. It is very common to mistake a rabbit for a different breed. I've seen a rescue mistake a Gold tipped Steel Netherland Dwarf for a Polish rabbit even though Polish only come in Black, Blue, Chocolate, BEW, REW, and broken in those varieties. Not every is lucky enough to have a Standard of Perfection in their reach 24/7 lol Please keep an open mind to the suggestions. Thanks!

That's what I said to to keep an open mind.
Thanks for posting those rabbits for suggestions.

the doe looks like a generic rabbit. Most likely a mixed breed of some sort. If she got it from a pet store could be anything.
