  Hi,
  
  I have noticed that my rabbits right nostril has changed to a dark brown/black color. (She is mostly white with brown ears and spots on her back) Does anyone have an idea what this could be?

  How old is she?
  
  Buns can have genes that gradually render them a dark nose and ears, then a dark face and dark limbs, as they grow into adulthood. Seal point coloring is an example of this. The color change from baby fur color to adult fur color can be quite radical. The young bun can be almost white with a little bit of gray or or light brown markings, and the adult bun can be so dark you can barely believe its the same individual.
  
  Do you see any sort of skin irritation?
  
  Here is a picture of a seal point rabbit:

  American Sable buns’ fur also changes color as they mature ♥
  
  When my bun was a baby her fur was dark grey, but when she grew older her fur turned chocolate brown, and she got black ears and paws.
