  What a lovely color. I would say she is definitely a mix, I can’t identify anything striking, maybe some Rex.

  How big is she, Diane? With those ears she might be a flemmie or NZ cross…or she could be part palomino (a breed originally bred for meat ), my Pip is a palomino/lionhead cross…she is that same color.
  She’s certainly a beautiful bun!

  Thanks everyone! She is such a beauty, I just fell in love with her eyelashes.
  
  She’s a little one – about 6.5 pounds.

  she might be a satin. How old is she? Does she have a sheen to her coat? Mr Jingles is 8 months and 7.6 lbs. He’s a satin.

  Well, she was captured outside (rescue bun), so I’m not completely sure. When she was spayed last in December, the vet guessed she was just reaching maturity, so that would put her at about a year old now.
  
  She has no sheen to her fur, it’s flat/dull but very soft. My other rabbit Jeffrey, is a satin and Lilly’s fur is actually much softer than Jeffrey’s.
  
  Lilly is a wild one too. She’s almost heartbreakingly affectionate, but has this…. crazy streak. She can be a biter when she’s excited, she frightens easily, and is pretty moody…. I’m not sure if that has to do with her rough childhood or perhaps she was the offspring of a domestic and wild rabbit.
  
  Anyhow, no biggee on her breed. I imagine she’s a bunny version of a mutt, but her “peaches and cream” coloring is so lovely, it almost looks like she was bred that way.

  Maybe she was a poorly marked harlequin and was tossed away because no one wanted her. She is beautiful and can very well be a nice variety of breeds in there.
