these colors usually only apply to labrador retrievers. if the puppy has all black fur, than he is a black lab, if he has all brown fur than he is a chocolate lab.
Then I think you would have a chocolate lab.
As much as I would like to answer this certainly (my best guess is a chocolate or black dog) but all I can tell you is you need to wait and see. As exited as you are, even asking on answers.com it will ruin the true surprise of the puppy color! Let it blow you away and tell us all how they turn out. I know this does not help you much but I think this is the best thing to say.
one metaphor is " the puppy was the color of chocolate "
no
chocolate will kill them
It is difficult to tell you exactly what your chocolate lab puppy should weigh because each puppy is built differently. On average, puppies weigh a single pound at birth and gain 2 pounds per week. Following that formula, your puppy should weigh between 18 and 20 pounds.
Unfortunately there is no such thing as a Black and Mild: Chocolate. You can always go to Johnmiddletonco.com and tell them about it. Who knows, maybe they'll pay you for the Idea.

"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.
No, the puppies will all be brown, unless there is at least one black parent, the genes that go to the puppy will make it brown, almost without fail.Another answer:It's a common misconception that Labradors breed true to the color of the parents. In fact, any color combination of Labrador Retriever parents can produce any color offspring...so yes, two chocolate labs can produce a black (or yellow) puppy.
