"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.

Um, no. One parent has to be a yellow Lab to do that.

Actually, you are wrong. A chocolate and a black lab can have yellow puppies. I have had my chocolate female bred with a black male and they had all 3 colors. In fact, she even had a white male which white labs are rare.

What lab is more popular black yellow or chocoLATE?

I think that the most popular lab color would be yellow.


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.

Do all labs carry the gene of a chocolate lab and black lab and a yellow lab?

No, all labs do not carry genes for all lab colors. Black is dominant to chocolate, so a black dog might be black with a hidden chocolate gene (represented Bb) or with two black genes (BB). Only one B is needed to make black, two b's are needed to make a chocolate. To be black, the dog must also have at least one gene for expression the dark coat (represented as an E). A dog without a gene for expression of the dark coat would be e/e, and be a yellow. So each lab has two pairs (simplifying) of genes controlling color. A dog's genes can be described with the pairs of letters. Black dog = genes of, BB + EE (will never have a chocolate or yellow puppy), or Bb + EE, (never a yellow puppy), or BB + Ee, (never a chocolate), or Bb + Ee (this would be black and carrier of all colors, the others do not carry all colors, the colors in the dogs puppies would depend on the other parent, except that there is a chance of black no matter what the other parent carries). Chocolate dog = bb + Ee, or bb + EE (no black in the chocolate dog's genes, if there was it would be a black dog) Yellow dog= BB + ee, bb + ee (will have liver-colored nose), or Bb + ee (the last is yellow and another carrier of all colors)
