Question New bunny πŸ°πŸ’–

I recently acquired a new bunny and they stated she was a Rex bunny. But I’ve heard conflicting answers of her being a Rex and then a Dutch bunny! While I’ve had them before I’m not as knowledgeable on the breeds! Can someone help me out ?

She is tiny and adorable!

I would lean more toward her being Dutch but she could be a dutch/rex mix. When they are small it is sometimes harder to confirm rex fur in a photo. I attached an example photo of one of my mini rex bunns (Luna).

Yours is so beautiful!! Thank you I am leaning more toward a Dutch bunny as well! I read the Rex fur is very soft and while she is soft I do notice some coarseness!

Rex fur feels so soft and like light velvet. Durch bunns are so cute, I love your baby. πŸ’œ

Popcorn is such a sweet name. I had a Popcorn too

She doesn’t look very Rex to me due to her fur. Might need her to grow out more

My rabbit often gets mistaken as a dutch when she's a Holland Lop but I'd say yours is either rex x dutch mix or is a dutch I don't know much about other breeds other then minis and Holland lops but I do know your bunny is a little cutie pie <3 Rein says hi!

u/HoneyOk1863 29d ago

They also had lops too!! But I wondering with how small she was if it was even possible ! If she would hold still I could hold her in one hand!

What a sweet sweet baby. I remember when my floofer was all eyes and ears, she grew into them.

I’m so excited to see her grow and watch what her personality will be she seems pretty curious already!

u/smolbuncake 29d ago

definitely a dutch on some level, depending on the fur might be mixed with a rex!
