  Can anyone identify the breed? i can’t seem to identify this little one. My friend found this abandoned bunny and doesn’t know what breed it is. It looks like a flemish, but the size doesn’t really seem like it’s actually a flemish

  Difficult to really tell from this photo but I’m going to venture a guess and say it’s a rex. Maybe a standard with those big ears. Reminds me of my Emmy that went to the Rainbow Bridge. I’m glad this little one was rescued!
  
  Of course, it could also be a NZ white the face though looks rex-like to me – maybe a close up would help.

  Looks like a rex to me too, though it’s hard to tell from the pic.

  It’s not a chinchilla at all.
  
  It could be a New Zealand White also but now I’m having a hard time saying because of the 2nd photo. He/she is adorable.

  It looks like a Florida White to me, which is a breed more than a location. Was she found in the Southern US, where they are more common? REWs, or Red-Eyed-Whites (sometimes what a Florida White is called also) are commonly used for lab experiments, so she may have been let loose or escaped if she was found near a school, research lab or hospital. Maybe someone was working on breeding. She’s so adorable!!!!

  I’m going to take back my rex claim – her fur doesn’t look rexy there. I’m going to jump on board the NZ or Florida White train.
