Hi there! I’m new to breeding holland lops and I’m still not super comfortable determining kit colors. I have two litters right now and I’d appreciate any help determining the colors.

What colors are the parents?
The babies look agouti/tan pattern, so either frosty & opal, or sable point marten and blue otter
 
For those two babies in question, then, I'd guess blue frosty (for the lighter one) and opal (for the darker one).

However, blue x opal can't produce a black, is the black from a different litter?
 
The first two pictures are of the litter of 4 (Black otter X chocolate)
The last three pictures are the Opal X Blue litter of 2
 
Thanks

The 'orange' in the first picture then would have to be a torted otter (or chocolate torted otter), as neither parent has the agouti gene needed to make orange. The dilutes look blue based, I can't tell if the one on the right has tan pattern markings or not though, from this angle.
 
Ahh ok I was confused by the orange looking baby , I really do appreciate all of your help! Hollands have so many colors it’s a lot to learn.
