New baby bunny, 3 months, not sure on the breed?

[bunbunmomo]

Hi guys, just got a new bunny about a month or so ago, she is all white with pink eyes a little tan/grayish spot on her nose, tail, ears and a bit on her paws. My fiancé picked her up from a breeder, he told me the mother was all white and rather big and the father was larger with spots, i wish i had seen the parents myself when he picked her up because i could have probably figured out the breeds.. but i'm not too sure. If someone could help that would be so wonderful! Thanks! Oh and her name is Momo the last two pictures are of when we first got her

White with the darker points indicates she has Californian in her. What else, I'm not sure. It sounds like the mother might have been New Zealand.

Thanks! I thought she might be part californian

Judging by the size of her feet I'd guess she could get to the size of a Cal, too.

Her colour is a point (seal point, blue point) but I don't know what colour she definitely is.. but she does seem to have Californian in her.

Thanks for your reply! I did think that she was, but i wasn't 100% on it

And a large white mother? Sounds like you have a New Zealand/Californian cross!

Plus, New Zealand's and Californians are both very popular meat breeds. It wouldn't be surprising if they were crossed together to make this little guy. There is someone in my 4-H club that has one.

That makes sense, thanks!

Cute little bunny! She looks very happy and is going to be a big girl

Just FYI, if those are cedar shavings in her cage and it's something you still use, you may want to change to a different litter or bedding(I can't tell if it's pine or not). Cedar has oils in it that can cause respiratory problems in animals. Paper based or kiln dried pine products work well. If your bun isn't litter trained and you wanted to do that, you could do away with the bedding and just have litter in the litter box.

She has Californian color and forehead.
Californians and New Zealands are indeed a common crossing.

Thank you! We did just pick up some paper based bedding!

Very cute. We used kiln dried pine from Wal Mart, Pets Pick, as it's the least costly and what our buns have used for a decade.
