Is my bunny a mini rex?

[Bandit27]

I have a question about my rabbit's breed. I was looking around on photos on the internet and saw some mini rex's that looked like her. I bought her from Tractor Supply and I have no idea on what her breed is. I would like to show her and I think that she is a good looking rabbit, that's why I got her!!:biggrin2lease help me! :thanks:

(Sorry the pictures are bad, my room doesn't have good lighting.)

No, she's not got mini-rex fur from what I can tell.

She does not appear to be a mini-rex. Maybe a cross.

She is very pretty but based on her color you could not show her in mini-rex

classes anyway. A broken mini-rex needs to have at least 10% color.

You could show her as a pet in 4-H if you are younger than 19. How old is she is how much does she weigh?

She is REALLY adorable! And very, very pretty! But her fur is too long to be a Mini Rex. How old is she? What does she weigh? I just love the ears andeye markings.

Her markings are called a charlie. She is very cute. Probably mix bred though. Defenitley not rex fur.

She's very beautiful, but doesn't meet the standard for any breed, so can't be shown (except in 4-H pet class).

That long, thick coat reminds me of a lop coat.

Look at her little spots! I think if I had her I'd call her Purdy after the mama dog in 101 dalmations! :biggrin2:

I'd love to have a little male like her! I'd call him Pongo!

She is about 8 months old and weighs around 3 pounds. I think that I'm going to show her in 4-H, that's what I was going to do in the first place. But, does anyone have any idea about her breed because I'd really like to know. Bo B Bunny that was a cute idea for her name but I named her Bandit because of the black around her eyes reminded me of a burgular. :biggrin2:

Her size and coat indicate a lop with too much ear control or a lop mix. I've seen Holland Lops with a lot of ear control that look like her.

She doesn't meet a breed description for any accepted ARBA breed.

You'll need to check your county 4-H rules - they don't all have pet classes.

We don't even have rabbit 4-H here

Okay! Thanks Pam! I'll have to check with the extension office to see.
