› FORUM › THE LOUNGE › Post a photo of your black bunny/black blob!
Inspired by the “are black bunnies unpopular” thread, I thought this would be fun. Those of you with black rabbits, post the best photo you have of them…and the worse ![]()
Not gunna lie, I absolutely love this pic of Peanut (and wanted an excuse to post it
):
And the worse. The camera quality is bad in this pic anyway but he is just a dark blob
:
Edit: Pics are sideways but they worked! Anyway, share yours!
This first one is a perfect example of Onyx. He looks so cute, so innocent.. as he sits next to and on a puddle of pee that he decided would suit my bed perfectly! ![]()
![]()

This one is Onyx snuggling with me on a typical day. ![]()

Thumper decided to pose

Thmper refused to pose

Kurotta is not fully black so it’s slightly easier to get a photo of him…although there are still challenges when the angle doesn’t show his otter colours, as illustrated below:


First pic: If you see from afar you may think it’s his butt facing the camera…until you see the eyes o_o
Second pic: Otter colours revealed!
Black buns are so hard to photograph! Although I’ve gotten better over time.
I usually delete the really horrible ones, but here’s a funny example of Thor blending in to her ceramic tiles. I would have picked black ones too to make it hard on myself…

And one of my favorites of her: Picture perfect if not for the molt line ![]()

Some awesome photos
Onyx does look innocent. I’m tempted to think someone framed him with that puddle
Thumper is adorable, I wish I could put hats on mine! Thor looks adorable, very elegant and I hadn’t even noticed the moult line at first!
I made the mistake initially of having the bunny’s play mat be black so of course the only way I could spot Peanut was because of his feet
Kurroto has the cutest, squishiest cheeks EVERRR! But is disqualified as he has white parts ![]()
Black blob bunnies are the best!
Here’s Atlas not looking too blobby – he saves looking like a black blob for when I’m trying to take a photo of more than one.
And here’s the blob in a group ![]()
ATLAS!!!!!! You know I have a soft spot for Nim, but Atlas has a special place in my heart. What with him and Peanut being basically twins. That bow tie ![]()
Here’s a typical blob picture of my blob:

98% of all Bam-pictures look like this. No, to be honest, 99% Plus he looks fat in this picture and he hates it when he looks fat. He isn’t fat, he weighed in at 2010 g this week.
As for good pictures, i don’t really have any ![]()

Hi there, I’m not 100% black, but this was taken before my big molt, I’m more of a very dark brown now.
Hi Charlie’s Angel!!! haven’t seen you around for a bit! Hope all is well with you!

Hi Charlie’s Angel!!! haven’t seen you around for a bit! Hope all is well with you!
We are great thank you, hope you are OK too.
Saw this and wanted to join in on the fun since I got my new bunny. He is so hard to take photos of ?

Yay for all the beautiful black bunnies!!!
Im actually looking after a number of black buns at the moment.
The majority of my friends rabbits are black. I won’t post photos without their permission though.
But its been a novelty for me, all that glossy black fur. Ive looked after black bunners before but not multiples. ![]()
HaruBun, so fluffy ![]()
Absolutely gorgeous!
Bam, such a handsome bun. And he isn’t fat looking, just fluffy ![]()
According to his weight, he’s roughly the same size as Peanut ![]()

So many beautiful bunnies
I started thinking on how I was going to mention a super cutie – then I kept scrolling and they’re all super cuties!
I don’t mind black bunnies – I think they’re gorgeous
What colour undercoat do your bun’s have? Peanut’s is a greyish-taupe, the same colour as underneath his paws ![]()
Thor’s bright white underneath the black exterior ![]()
Thumper’s undercoat is a lovely silver grey

Wick isn’t technically an entire black blob, but at some angles, he is definitely a puddle of tar.

If I’m on the couch, she’s on the couch.
So cuuuute!! I love black buns, but lets be honest, all bunnies are seriously cute!!
That’s a lovely picture, JPetrucci!
Took this while playing Poke Go! Unfortunately, while Guinness is a black otter, the black hole blob strikes again.

Haha, Sleepy! That’s exactly how a black blob pic should look! You practically need to draw an arrow and write “rabbit” for people to know there’s a bun in that pic. (I know this because I’m something of an expert at taking black blob pix after 6.5 years with a black blob).

Thank you! ![]()
I like the head tilt on Duchess.
“Really?! Are you kidding me with this?!”

Yep xD. I wanted to get a better picture but she hopped away before I could adjust lighting, as buns are wont to do.
Loving these pictures guys
Keep the black blobs coming!
i’m very late to this awesome thread… but 3 out of 4 buns that I’ve had have been black/almost all black – so I know the pain of trying to take a decent picture!!



the netherland dwarf is ollie, and the mini lop is leo!! ![]()

Do any of you have other black animals that are hard to photograph? We used to have a black cat but she also had a white belly and little white feet
We have a black and tan German shepherd who has lightened up quite a bit but her face was verrry dark when she was younger. You could never see her features in pictures.
Black bunnies are one of my favorites!! Here’s Mushu<3
