New Babies

[massie777]

Just wanted to tell everyone that a dwarf female that came into my rescue about 1 month ago justgave birth today. She is around 2 years old and came in pregnant. I was really thinking it was a false pregnancy since she made a nest 2 weeks ago.

She has three really cute babies, one is dark in color and the other two are pink. Can't wait to see what colors they turn out to be. I did not get pictures yet because she is a really bitchy rabbit and wouldn't let mego near them. I will get some in a few days.

Just so you know mom is a grey color, I will get pictures of her also.

I did have one question, She had one baby outside the nest that wasn't fully formed. had no head, and was flat, could see a ribcage but that is it and the skin was a light pink/white color. What do you think it was? just a really unformed kit?

I am going to go check on them this afternoon when I get out of work, hopefully they survived the night, it was kind of cold. I will get pictures of them tonight and mom. The female is a real bitch though and lunges and growls at me all the time whenever i put my hand in her cage. Hopefully she will let me look at them.

Cute babies! Looks like you have a Solid Black, Blue Tort, Not sure on the 3rd one...possibly a Lilac Tort (but I'm probably wrong about that one) or maybe a Fawn.

Adorable :inlove:I'd have to say that baby 1 is a solid black. 2 is a blue tort. 3 possibly some sort of tort as well? Maybe a fawn as Emily said?

 

[Blaze_Amita]

iwas going to say black, blue tort, orange or lynx on the last one . . . . at least we can agree on some of the babies colors!

New Pictures

The babies are 7 days old now and are soo cute.

Here are some pictures of them at 6 days old:

What do you guys think their coloring is? You can see it better now.

 

[massie777]

sorry the pictures are soo big forgot to make them smaller

 

[TCRabbitry]

I'd say a solid black and two sooty fawns.

 

[bunnybunbunb]

The one is for sure a Blue tort, but the other's feet and ears are not blue like the other's. It looks like a fawn?

 

[massie777]

Thanks, i thought it was a fawn. She looks like she is all one color unlike the other baby

 

[bunnybunbunb]

They are cute non-the-less.

For it to be a fawn the sire had to be agouti. I doubt you know anything about the sire though?

 

[massie777]

yeah i know nothing about the father, but wish i did.

 

[BlueCamasRabbitry]

I'm gonna say Orange for that last baby. Either that, or a very dark, very rich Fawn.

Sam, I've had a fawn kit out of a Black VM before, but mom was a Fawn Harlequin. Is that able to happen? I'm just confused because neither mom nor dad was Agouti, but they had a fawn kit.

[mistyjr]

They are an pretty orange color..

 

[bunnybunbunb]

Most harlequins are agouti, if they are not then they are usually called torted harlequin. If it is fawn or orange it is agouti.

A proper black/orange harlequin: A-B-C-D-eje

A tort/black harlequin: aaB-C-D-eje

The "A" is the agouti gene, which is dominant.
