I don't know what's going on. 8D

Blackbuck and Silver are full brother and sister, black GT steels. Mag is their mum. They're all a mix of NZ and Cal.
Blackbuck has a patch of white hairs on his side that I assumed was from a scar or something. Silver, however, is covered in these white-ish hairs; they mingle with her steel and make it difficult to get a photo of. >:[ Blackbuck was from the first Mag x Posi litter, and I didn't notice any kits grow into white hairs, but I wasn't really paying a ton of attention to color, but I noticed these "silvered" kits when the 2nd litter shed out of their baby fur.
I bred Blackbuck to Mag, and got a kit with a two colored eye - also, more of these "silvered" bunnies. I didn't really look at others' eyes because again I wasn't paying attention.
When I bred Blackbuck to Silver, I got a kit with a white toe. They're still little floofballs right now.
Where'd the white toe come from, or this "silvering" and what's with the weirdo eye? :shock:

I love that silvered rabbit!

I am really dense when it comes to genetics, but with the two toned eye and the white toe, I would suspect the Vienna gene is at work. :?

I'm probably wrong, though, so hopefully one of our resident "geneticists" will chime in shortly!

Vienna eyes would be blue and brown though, not brown and black.

Vienna eyes would be blue and brown though, not brown and black.

I know they are typically blue, but I wonder if it could still be related... one of our dogs is a blue merle, and he has a black patch over one eye, which is dark brown- and a merle patch over the other eye, which is light brown. His sire has one blue eye and one "split" eye which is half brown, half blue. :? :? :?

It could carry one vienna or one dutch gene (most likely one vienna) that is leaking through.

I think the white toe and odd eye are just mis-marks and not hereditary genetic mutations or associated with any of the colour genes.

I believe your doe carries the silvering gene and is passing it on to her offspring.
