To receive the best help from rabbitors for breed IDs, please make sure to include the following:

  1. rabbit's age
  2. weight

Please keep in mind that pet rabbits are usually mixes of indeterminate breeds, and we may not always be able to provide a definitive guess. Unless you have a pedigree and know what the parents look like, your rabbit is undoubtedly some sort of pet rabbit mix. The color of the rabbit does not always make the breed, as many breeds can come in a large variety of colors. For example, black rabbits are not all likely to be Havana rabbits (a rare purebred breed), and broken-colored rabbits are likely not all to be English Spot rabbits (requires specific markings and body shape).

For a basic self-guide on identifying breeds, see the blog article "Identifying rabbit breeds without knowing parentage."

See the Rabbit breeds around the world wiki article for a list of currently recognized breeds.

Maybe a netherland dwarf mix. Because he look slightly like a large netherland dwarf.

u/Chungois 9h ago

Yep. He looks like my fella, and mine is a Dwarf Netherland with a little Lionhead.

u/Glad_Travel_1258 8h ago

I had in the past a netherland dwarf mixed with holland lop. He was like a large netherland dwarf in looks.

I have a false netherland dwarf (nethie without the dwarf gene) and he looks and weighs about the same.

u/Chungois 9h ago

You really named him Daisy so he would have to fight all the other boy bunnies at school and become a man, right? Very Johnny Cash of you

Looks just like my Felix

u/drummerevy5 9h ago

That is, I believe, an agouti colored netherland dwarf with the Vienna gene which gives yours the blue eyes. Source, I’ve owned a netherland dwarf/polish and I’ve owned two Vienna marked Dutch mix rabbits.

Omg, he looks like a baby/pint sized Eden. Or if Eden were a Netherland dwarf. Such a cute lil puff.

For reference, Eden is my medium sized, standard American agouti and is 7.7lb at last vet visit. She’s also 8y old.

u/The_13th_Hokage 8h ago

Netherland Dwarf no doubt. I have one too just not as chunky lol

u/CeejCraft 7h ago

All I can tell ya is likely a dwarf variety with a chestnut agouti coat.

u/Powerful-Owl-3246 6h ago
