Introduction
The thought of genetics and the relationship to color can be daunting; but it doesn�t have to be. Having a basic understanding of the general color rules can open up a breeding program to unlimited variations in order to produce the best-typed rabbit. It allows you to "break the conventional rules" therefore looking more at type and less at color.
Breeding Questions
One of the most commonly asked questions is "what color can I breed to my new rabbit?" My extremely basic answer to this is as follows: it is generally recommended not to breed Agouti to AOV (Pointed White) or to any shaded rabbit, including Siamese Sable Marten and Smoke Pearl Marten as these are both "shaded Tans".
Summary
Having a good understanding of color genetics can open up a whole new world of breeding for you. It will cut the restraints when breeding for type. If you understand what colors and patterns your rabbits are hiding then you can feel much freer in selecting your breeding pairs.
