'Your rabbits details... breed' Umm
So, I'm on the petplan website getting a quote, and I don't know her breed. Hasn't that just scuppered my plans!
For some reason the vets have her down as a dwarf lop... I think they got confused since that was what little Nelly quite possibly was.
Info:
She is now 6 months old and weighs 2.05kg. Permanently sticky up ears. Really soft coat.
So here are some (useless phone) photos in the hope someone will be able to help!
Her next to little Nelly when they were approx 8 weeks old.
About 4/5 months old
Most recent. (6 months)

Just call her a cross, unless you know for sure what she is then its the safest bet xx

Re: 'Your rabbits details... breed' Umm
Luna is the same type of colour and when I had a look at insurance stuff to see how much it'd be I think I put it down as mix breed, there was also the option of Harlequin, but it's hard to tell what she is really here's a Harlequin

She's probably a mix breed though, which I'm pretty sure Luna is

Re: 'Your rabbits details... breed' Umm
Great link, thank you! She applies to quite a bit of that description but it's hard to tell if she is pure harlequin for sure. She is most probably a cross so will stick with that to be safe.
Unfortunately Katie, the drop down choices don't offer gorgeous, what silly silly people!

Re: 'Your rabbits details... breed' Umm
The thing with Harlequins is that through cross breeding, a lot of buns can have Harlequin colors, but aren't actually a Harlequin rabbit breed, as here...

Yep I know! It's so confusing, I think if Luna could she'd pretend she was Harelquin just so she could boast about being an actual breed as oppose to a mix breed

Re: 'Your rabbits details... breed' Umm
I do love Harley colours, have you ever seen a Magpie harley?
There was one in the pet supermarket a few weeks back, I really had to stop myself..

Tigger would do the exact same thing!
Ah how confusing, applies to some characteristics but not all. They just don't want to be found out do they haha.
I've seen these before and found them so beautiful but never knew the actual name.

Re: 'Your rabbits details... breed' Umm
Haha awww it did make him a very beautiful bun though!! When I first got Luna I looked up all the different harley colours but I've never seen the magpie one in real life. Just similar colours to Luna. I think I read somewhere breeders of this normally aim for the colours to be opposites on either side so the rabbit looks much like this

Re: 'Your rabbits details... breed' Umm
Yeah, if the head is like that i think they are likely pure bred, to me, they are the most handsome bunnies
Re: 'Your rabbits details... breed' Umm
They are very beautiful much like a patchwork quilt kind of look heh. I found this breeder, not in england, but I just find it interesting all the different types of ways the pattern comes out

Tigger's head isn't in two halved colours it's in thirds
I love all the different patterns too.

Re: 'Your rabbits details... breed' Umm
Ahh he has SUCH a scrummy looking face. I too like the black band/stripe round his belly and side ...and his black muzzle
Here's Luna, looking a bit more baby like as it was when we got her ^_^..Which I realise now was in feb last year. Wow how time flies!!
Her face has a sort of pattern to it, but then her body is just a merge of everything all over the place >_<
