I have sandy flemish does, a silver (or dark grey...?) new zealand/flemish cross, and a white new zealand/flemish cross with light grey almost lilac spots all over. I also have a black polish buck and a white polish buck with black spots... a broken? or a charlie? or a broken charlie? I have NO IDEA!
This appears to be what in a Flemish would be called a Light Grey, but in any other breed is called Chinchilla.
This looks like a Broken Chin.
This is a Broken Black. A Charlie is an animal that has two copies of the Broken gene; while Charlies are lightly marked, not every lightly marked Broken is a Charlie. I have seen rabbits with this much white that weren't Charlies (mostly Netherland Dwarfs or Dwarf Hotot mismarks). Because the broken gene has significant impact on the rabbit's digestive system, one of the easiest ways to spot a Charlie is its poo - normal 'bunny berries' are round and slightly flattened, a bit like plain M&M's, while those produced by a Charlie are often many different sizes and shapes (like the peanut M&M's).
