What Colour Is She ?

[miniquilts]

I hope I uploaded the photo the right way. I was wondering what colour she may be. Her mother was the same colour as her and her daddy was a REW.

ladysown, you can click on the pic and see a bigger version. I think chocolate or lilac? Lilac is dilute chocolate, so it isn't as deep of a brown, is it not? :?

Actually Sistah, although Lilac is dilute of chocolate, it is NOT brown...it is a soft grey with a pinkish tinge....like this...



The OP's rabbit is Chocolate...and it has a dove grey undercoat....like this...

Well, I *would* but I only have the one right now....and I am being selfish and keeping her! :lol: But, you could get some from the ones I bring you, since the parents carry for Lilac...they might as well....

Thank you for all of the replies, how would one go about breeding a lilac? If I put her with a blue male would that create lilac?

Lilac does not result from Blue, it comes from Chocolate.

Lilac is the dilute of Chocolate
Blue is the dilute of Black

Your best bet is to breed her to a Lilac or a Chocolate that carries dilute (lilac)

What breed is she?

She is a mixed breed meat mutt ( rex & ??)- 3 months old 4lbs. I will have to hunt around for a good sized lilac male. The bucks I have are a California and a Chestnut Augouti Rex x Lop.Out of the last 2 litters I am thinking about keeping either a blue male or a black male that has white toes on his front feet I am striving to produce colourful meat mutts.
