  I’m the very proud mummy of 4 holland lop bunnies, they are my love, my life, my everything.
  
  Here’s the thing though…..I’ve been wondering what they’re colourings were since I just call them black,grey etc I’ve been looking on google for any websites that might have listings then it dawned on me, Binkybunny has the most bunny savvy people on the net. So here I am posting with hope that perhaps all you fellow bunny parents might help me with this dilemma.
  
  Clyde and Shadow are nice and easy to figure their colours hehe, they’re both black.
  
  Luna and Bunny however I’m not so sure about. I’ve posted some pictures of both, Bunny is the dark chocolate colour and Luna is the grey and white (little devil)
  
  Any help with this would be ever so wonderful and very much appreciated.

  It is confusing with all the names out there! And sorry, I’m not here to assist. I just wanted to say how cool Luna’s eye looks in that shot. I know it’s a trick of the lighting/camera etc but still……that purple and yellow combo looks great!

  HEHE thanx Jersey. When the pic was first taken her eye was kinda redish looking but I used a program that came with a walmart photo disk and the purple/yellow is the final result of using the red eye reducer. Shoulda left the red eye on Luna since she’s a devil in a furry coat (Said as she digs and chews the couch cushion) The photo was taken during her last trip into the bedroom…..she was banned after chewing on my cell phone charger cord.

  I believe Bunny is a ‘Chestnut’ and Luna is a ‘broken’ but I don’t know what color of broken she is… Not much help here!

  Bunny looks like he might be a Chocolate Point Siamese – brown & tan body with black head and paws. I am quite partial to this coloring!
  
  I don’t know what Luna is – except for adorable little devil, awesome purple / yellow eyes in the photo!

  Luna looks to me like a broken chinchilla coloring. And like Sage, I think Bunny is a Chocolate Point Siamese. Hope this helps!!!

  Thannks for all your help with the colourings everyone. And another big thank you on the compliments also. I’d tell Luna what you all said but her ego is pretty big as it is hehe. They both get told on a daily basis how beautiful they are and I’m starting to wonder if Bunny thinks her name is mommy’s beautiful girl.
