it is possible that a small fraction of the puppies will be chocolate or yellow labs.

Is it possible for two yellow labs to have black puppies?
Yes. uhhh...no my friend.... 2 yellows will only have yellows and/or dudleys if the parents are chocolate factored.... why? because the parents are both yellow labs, they carry the ee alleles, therefore, they both can only pass on "e" to their offspring making all the offspring "ee" (yellow labs)....in order to be a black lab, they have to have at least 1 "B" and one "E" which the yellow labs do not have, so you'd have to bred a yellow with a chocolate or black lab to be able to get some black pups....hope this helps
How are chocolate labs produced?
If the mom has chocolate lab in her genes, she will have a good chance of having a chocolate of her own. We have 2 black labs that we bred and she had a chocolate baby because it was somewhere in her line.
What color puppies will a yellow labe have?
The puppies would be labs (like the mom and dad) ,but the color or colors would depend entirely on which color genes they received from each parent. The black color is dominant; the possibilities for a black puppy are EEBB, EEBb,EeBB, or EeBb. The possibilities for a yellow puppy are eeBB, eeBb, or eebb. Both EEbb and Eebb would produce a chocolate lab. So, to be yellow, the puppy must receive the 'e' gene from both parents, and to be chocolate, the puppy must have received the 'b' gene from both parents--any other combination will produce a black puppy. It should be noted that the combination of eebb will always produce a dog that is yellow, but that has chocolate pigmentation around its eye rims, and on its nose. This is not currently an 'accepted' color for registration with the AKC. Wait what would the majority of the puppies be? Black, yellow, or chocolate? There is also times where is a greyish color, but its rare. We had two black labs stay with us for several months. The female had 9 puppies, 5 were yellow labs, 4 were black, both parents were black labs.
Can a chocolate and yellow lab have a black puppy?
"Do NOT breed a yellow and a chocolate. You will get what are called "dudleys". They will have no black pigmentation, so a pink nose, pink or yellow eyes, pink paw pads, etc. A chocolate and a yellow are incapable of having a black puppy, as neither carry a dominant black gene. " Whoever said that obviously doesn't know about Labrador genetics. My Chocolate lab and yellow father had 2 black puppies in their litter 4 days ago. There are TWO genes that determine labrador colour. One gene detemines the chocolate/black colour, one gene determines yellow colouring. In the each gene, there two alleles, if you like. Correctly, a chocolate lab can not carry the black gene as it is dominant and the chocolate gene is ressessive. The chocolate dog has to have 2 chocolate alleles. However, the yellow colouring gene is irrespective of the chocolate/black gene. If that gene has two ressessive yellow alleles, the dog WILL be yellow, regardless if it carries 1 or 2 black alleles in the first chocolate/black gene. If you don't yunderstand that, you do not have the knowledge to answer such a question and give people wrong advice. And my Lolas puppies are beautiful, by the way.
Are all chocolate labs brown?
Any... it depends on the parents' genes, not their coat colors. For example, two black labs could easily produce a litter that includes all three coats of black, chocolate, and yellow. Perhaps we could expect more black puppies than the other, as black is the main gene for each parent.
What kind of puppies will 2 chocolate labs have?
Labs puppies of course. Mendel's Law has shown that there are dominant and recessive traits in the genes of all living things. Provided that both dogs are purebred chocolate labs with no recessive genes or genetic mutations the results would be chocolate lab puppies. However, if there is a recessive gene or a genetic mutation in the code for color in either dog's genes, there is a slight possibility that they could produce a lab of another color. If both dogs carry the same recessive gene, there is an even higher possibility of that happening. (Gregor Mendel was a 19th century monk who first studied the possible results of crossbreeding using peas.)
How many lab colors are there?

Are chocolate labs cutter than golden labs?
It just depends on which one you like, I don't think you can really choose its just an opinion. But if I had to pick it would be chocolate...i own 2 of them

How do you know what type of dog to get?
just ask people and see if all people say the same thing then you can see what kind of dog to get and plus it maters if you want a little dog or a big dog. I have three labs they are really good hunting dogs they are also really playful. I actually have 2 English labs and one chocolate lab and I love them so much the are great dogs and one of my English labs is about to have puppies I am so exited.
How old does a male dog have to be to have puppies My dog is 9 months old and i have a female 2 years old both are black labs. can she be prego they were stuck together a few times?
Yes. A male dog becomes sexually mature at his 9 months of age, and a female at her 1 year and 2 months. So, she might be pregnant.
