  Harlequin-Lop and Lion Head-Lop mixes are my best guesses.
  
  Whatever they are, they sure are adorable though!

  Yes, how big are they? Definitely lop mix, either Holland or Mini. Looks like some Harlequin in the girl (or maybe just the coloring) and lionhead in the boy.

  Moxie’s guesses seem logical-I looked on here and saw lionhead immediately.
  They are gorgeous!

  Well this was my logic:
  They are both obviously lop mixes because of their ears, that much is certain. The boy has long fur around the ears/neck just like a lionhead. So that’s my guess for him.
  The girl has the coloration of a harlequin, so I’m guessing that and a lop mix.
  
  But they could also have some other “hidden” breeds in them you can’t see. Like for instance your boy’s parents might be a lion-lop and a lop-Mini rex-lion head (just randomly guessing to make a point) so all we can really do is give you an educated guess upon the appearance of the bun in question.

  Yep. ^
  
  Mostly they do look like dwarf lops (or mini lop if you’re in the U.S.).
  Definitely see something like lionhead in the boy also. If they’re related, the girl might not be expressing the lionhead coat. They can be un-maned even in the full breed.
  
  Welcome !
