Help identify my bunny's breed?

[FelipesMommy]

This is my new little boy Felipe. He is my first bunny and I'm not sure what breed he is. I got him from the pet store (I know, I know). He is ruby eyed and mostly white, with a light gray nose, tail, and ears. They said he is four or five months old.

I would guess an Himalayan Netherland Dwarf...

Do you think his nose/ends will get darker? When I looked up Himalayan they were mostly white and black, not gray.

He still has his baby coat so that makes it light. He could also be diluted so if he was Blue or Lilac Himilayan that would make him lighter, too.

I have some of them little yellow bowls... they are TINY! I use them for my hamsters to drink out of. He must be small because the bowl is the perfect size for a dwarf hamster to fit in and to small for a Syrian to fit into it. Unless they make the bowls bigger now?

Himalayan is both a color as well as a breed. The varieties include black, blue, chocolate, and lilac. It's hard to tell from your photos, but your bunny may be a blue or lilac and might possibly not get any darker.

Yes he is pretty small. Right now I use the smaller bowl (the smallest they had) for pellets and I have a larger yellow one for greens. He has grown a little in the last month but when I got him (at 4 or 5 months) he was about the size of my hand.

I think his nose has already gotten a little darker. I really like the gray so I hope he doesn't get much darker.

Edited to add: Here are a couple more recent pictures. He is obviously not posed or anything.
