  Hey y’all! I’m see that many many many people ask this question, so I hope I’m not bothering y’all too much about it. I’m sorry if I am! I purchased my bunny (my first ever!) from a pet store a little over a month ago, and am now just curious as to what breed he might be. I didn’t give it a lot of thought until I went to fill out the authorization forms for his neutere, and said to myself, “ya know, I really don’t know what he is!” The pet store said he was a Mini Rex, but he doesn’t have a short, velvetey coat like mini rex’s In picture she have. Also, each day more and more white hairs begin to pop up all alof if his paws, ears, and back! So I googled that, and think he really resembles a Silver Fox! However, the internet is telling me those are a very rare breed, and I doubt a small town pet shop would be selling an endangered breed. So maybe he’s a mix of something? If you think he looks like anthuhf in particular, please tell me below! I’m just so curious!
  
  In case it helps, he’s currentky 13 weeks old.
  
  And if any of y’all have Instagram accounts, comment that as well! We’d love to folllow everyone you can find us at @minirexmav
  
  EDIT: my JPG files are too large & the site won’t let me upload them, so here’s a direct link to my Instagram account with PLENTY of pictures of Maverick. Sorry about the trouble! I hope someone knows what kind of breed or mix he might be.

  So cute! He almost looks like he’s a black Havana! Youtube search “Lennon The Bunny”, she’s a Havana and your bun looks very similar!

  Oh I didn’t realise you were a BB-er
  
  He’s very cute, but I’m not very good with knowing my sticky-up eared breeds

  Hi Lexi : )
  Welcome to Binky Bunny.
  
  He’s lovely! I love his name, the glossy fur and that white stripe on his lip. <3
  
  By the way, I edited the link above to make it clickable. It was one before but it was just opening another binky bunny page instead of instagram.

  He is so cute! Those ears are so big! Are ears big on baby buns until they grow into them?
  
  He looks an awful lot like my Luna who is at least in part a silver fox. Luna is dense, but not fat, her coat is very thick like a pelt, and she also has those signature white hairs. We also wondered if she might be a havana like someone else suggested, but I don’t think havana rabbits have the white hairs.
