Oh thank you for the information! Color genetics are very interesting to say the least. <br /><br /> __________ Fri Sep 18, 2020 6:22 pm __________ <br /><br /> When I bred this pair they threw... 2 broken blacks 1 broken castor 2 black tort I am keeping the black tort doe to breed more...

This is a great explanation! Thank you. I believe my buck had self black, rew and chinchilla in his back ground. I think the breeder also said he has thrown a red kit. So I believe red is a gene that removes the black pigment, self would mean room for black kits and I dont know if chinchilla can...

I'm going to be buying a standatd rex opal doe to breed to my standard rex broken castor buck. In my research I believe that opal is a dilute of castor. My question is without knowing much about the hidden genes shouldn't I get roughly half castor half broken caster? Thanks

I have two does due soon. Hopefully we will see kits around the 20th. Both are proven but this is their first litter with me. One is a black tourt and the other is a self black. Both have red in their lines and where bred to a broken castor with red lines. Crossing my fingers. Can't wait to see...

I know that my broken caster has self black, chinchilla and rew in his pedigree. Not sure about the magpie doe.

This is alot of very good information Zass! Thank you very much.

I bred my broken castor buck that carries self, rew, chinchilla and dilute to my cinnamon I believe she is a black tort. How would the castor and black tort mix?

I know my buck carries chinchilla, self,dilute and rew. I do not have any background on my doe.

Genetically what is the difference between a cinnamon and a new zeland red? <br /><br /> __________ Sun Jan 19, 2020 10:34 pm __________ <br /><br /> Dont new zeland reds have a white belly and less rufus?

I think I may have a cinnamon rabbit. I was told she was a new zeland meat mutt. But her body and coloring look cinnamon to me. I guess my question is do cinnamons have a grey or blue belly or are they white?

Hello I was just wondering what the outcome would be with a pairing of a broken magpie to a broken castor? I know from two broken I will get 25% solid 50% broken and 25% charlie. I believe magpie is a mix of chinchilla and harlequin. But I don't know how the castor and magpie would mesh.

Hello I am new here and just wanted to introduce myself. I am very interested in rabbit color genetics. We breed a mix of meat and fur rabbits. At the moment we have standard rex and a group of meat mutts new zelands, cinnamon, flemish giants. I would really like to focus more on red standard...

I'll try anything at this point. Thanks

Has anyone else had any issues with bucks becoming agressive during breeding? My buck has started biting my does feet and legs and has drawn blood. He is chasing them and not humping but biting. Any suggestions?

I have to say it is the same donv and dance. I have given them a couple of days to cool down. Then put the females back with the male. They stomp he bites them and then nothing. The females laydown and he will sniff their ears anc bite them. I recently bought a 3 month old female. If the two...
