    Does this look like early vent disease?

    Do these genital areas look normal? Are the whitish blotches around the genitals normal? Is the redness normal too? These are 4 week old kits. How long does it take for the symptoms of vent disease to show? Thank you!

    Calling all color gurus for STS, American Chinchilla, Silver, Silver Fox, Sable, Sable Chinchilla, and anyone familiar with both Es & si genes.

    How do I tell the difference between a heavily silvered rabbit and an STS? What would a heavily silvered sable based STS look like? Everything I have studied says the silvering gene causes both solid white hairs as well as white ticking. The steel gene causes the base color to be blown up the...

    What do you say about these two kits?

    Parents known genotypes Sire = AaB_cchl_DdEsE Dam = aaB_C_D_ee One fits the description of a regular chestnut to a tee. The other fits the description, only without ear lacing. Insight would be helpful here. Are they both chestnuts?

    Unexpected Surprise!

    So, long story short. A friend bred her REW New Zealand doe, to a broken LionHead buck. There were two kits born. A REW and him. I was told this color is Chocolate ?Siamese Sable? Does that seem correct about his coloring? If so, genetically speaking, what does that tell us about the REWs...

    Guess that genotype!

    Today we present Bandit (1st two pics) and his brother Quicksilver (Last two picks). Full blooded littermates. Their breeder says their sire is a Silver Fox. The breeder refuses to acknowledge they are any other breed, and can only say "They are Silver Fox who are just expressing the genes used...
