@Bunnylady I have seen a white coated polish with blue eyes it was unsettling to see a pure white rabbit without red eyes. Do you know why that rabbit could of had blue not red eyes?

Yes, that's a color called Blue-eyed White (BEW). It's caused by the Vienna gene. Vienna is weird; one copy gives you a colored rabbit with some areas of white that may almost look like a Dutch rabbit (called Vienna-Marked or VM). Two copies is a Blue-eyed White. VM may have brown eyes, blue eyes, or even one of each. A bit more unusual is a Vienna Carrier (VC); they are colored like normal but have the Vienna gene, and may give it to their offspring.

I've never heard of BEW before. Thanks for the explanation. I guess I do learn a new thing every day.
