I'm not confused by these kits, but I am pleased as punch. Here's a little brain teaser for y'all:
Sire: AAbbCCDdee (orange)
Dam: a(t)aBBCcddEE (blue otter)

(aren't they cute together?)

Babies should all be chestnut or opal, right? Well, they are... but then the rufus gets involved :)

I believe the two orange-looking kits are high-rufus opal. The silvery (opal) one and the deep chestnut are getting orange-tinged too, here at day five.

What's funny to me is that except for the deep chestnut kit they look a lot like what someone totally unfamiliar with rabbit genetics might expect from looking at the parents. I'm thrilled because I expected just two colors and lucked out with what appears like three.
