Fawn. How old is it? Lemme go get a pic of my fawn....

At 4 months:

At 6 months:

You can see the darkening of her face, but not the coat.

Well crap, Fawn is not a lionhead color. What is the lionhead version of fawn?

There is a reason I was aiming for the Siamese Sable, Sable Points, REW, Blue Pointed white, etc. They are much more straightforward.

 

[NellaBean]

Varieties: Black, Blue, Blue-Eyed White, Blue Point, Chestnut Agouti, Chocolate Agouti, Chocolate,
Chinchilla, Lilac, Opal, Orange, Otter, Pointed White, Red, Ruby-Eyed White, Sable Point,
Sable Marten, Seal, Siamese Sable, Silver Marten, Smoke Pearl, Squirrel,
Tort-Black, Tort-Blue, Tort-Chocolate, & Tort-Lilac

If I had to pick one, I would pick opal. If you look at the fur in your pics you can see the pinks and taupe colors like you can in mine. Fawn isn't a lionhead color?? Weirdos.

Now go help me with my color dilemma.

 

[NellaBean]

well crap, I'm calling them orange. I guess I will find out for sure this weekend! They may just not be correct colors......we'll see.

Just refer to it as fawn...they should recognize ...it is a normal OLD rabbit breed color in many many of the breeds especially angoras.

That would explain it then. Mine are angoras and Nellas are lionheads.

I'm thinking they look like golden orange, red, or opal like debiraymond said.....
