I've never bred this pair of Mini Lops before and I'm curious what color possibilities I'm looking at.

Dame is black (her Mom Chestnut Agouti, her Dad Steel - Black, g tipped)
Sire is fawn (his Mom Black, his Dad Chestnut Agouti)

Thank you much!
 
Yes, and torts, if the black carries non-extension you'd have a 25% chance

Other colours as well but it all depends on hidden recessives matching in both parents
 
Dood - I wanted to let you know the outcome since you were so kind to share your thoughts on color.
There are two black and these two. How early can one tell whether orange or tort?
Thanks again!

These are most likely orange, because they have the white inside of the ears (while torts have solid colored ears)
 
Its still a bit early but I think the top one is a tort and the lower one is a fawn/orange :D

Those "blacks" might turn out to be steel ;) the first indication is a slightly paler belly and a touch of brown at the nape of the neck
