Adult Coat

SkegMag

Warren Scout
My (first-ever) bunny is around 6 months old, and she's developing dark patches on her back - one about 2x2 ins and several others about the size of pound coins. Would this be her adult coat developing? - if it is, I'm overjoyed with it - jet black and shines like a mirror!
 
There's a chance she's moulting and that's her winter coat. It sounds a bit strange though, because usually bunnies moult from the head down in a line that goes down their sides. If the new coat is thick and healthy-looking, though, it's probably just an unusual moult pattern. :)
 
Thank you, KoShiatar - trust me to have a strange rabbit lol! Yes, it looks perfectly healthy - gleaming more than the rest of her.
