Does anyone know if full bred Dutch rabbits can have blue eyes? I want  to buy from a breeder but some of the rabbits have blue eyes or mixed instead of the normal brown. I just want to make sure so I can breed and show if I buy any of them.

Hi Reagan,

Its my understanding blue eyes as accepted within the breed standard of Dutch rabbits. You can confirm this by visiting the web page of any association who advocates for the Dutch rabbit breed, as they typically also list descriptions of the breed standard.

Hope that helps!
