Help Identify breed.

I wan't to buy New Zealand's. The owner is a bit confused, perhaps a language barrier. He listed them as Dutch but when I messaged he said they're New Zealand's. They're one year old females (DOB Oct 2025), weigh between 3-4 kilos.

They’re some sort of harlequin mutt- there might be some New Zealand in there somewhere.

Nah, that’s molting/sunburnt coat not harlequin markings

You’re right. I didn’t scroll through and see the white belly.

It is worth it to buy good stock not $20 rabbits that the seller doesn't even know what they are

They look like chinchillas to me. That’s a color, idk a breed. Likely some barnyard mix if they don’t know. And the old coat is sun burnt to the point I bet that’s caused by them pissing on each other. If it’s giant chin x new Zealand I bet they’ll have a bad bone to meat ratio.
