Brown-Eyed White

[Cattle Cait]

What is the technical name for this color and how does it happen? I think it's called Ermine, but I may be thinking of something else.

It involves the chinchilla dilution gene but I'm not sure the details. This site has several genotypes for ermine http://www.thenaturetrail.com/Rabbit-Co ... -Chart.htm

In cold weather you may see some color on the tail, nose or ears. Ermines sometimes have very light gray eyes and people mistake them for blue eyed whites. They are no where close to the crystal blue of the BEW.

 

[Honorine]

Chestnut Agouti + the non extension gene= Fawn so that translates into Chinchilla Agouti + the non extension gene = Ermine Their also called Frosted Pearl and Frosties.
