Can two solid black rats have agouti offspring?
It is quite possible. Let us say that both of these solid black mice breed together, and have a few pale babies. This would give reason to believe that they are what is called 'heterozygous' for agouti. If a male and female mice were pure bred black, then the gene would be represented as such: Male: BB Female: BB BB, Bb= Black bb= agouti Now, if your rats are heterozygous for the agouti gene (Bb) it means that they look black, but have the agouti gene in them. The black colour being the dominant trait, and the agouti being recessive. If you cross two Bb rats, the offspring will come out like so: BbxBb= 25% Pure black rats (BB), this is called homozygous 50% heterozygous rats (Bb) and 25% homozygous recessive (bb) So, to say it simply, yes. Two black mice can have light agouti babies. Search up punnet square, monohybrid and dihybrid crosses to learn more.
If your coloured female mouse mated with a wild brown house mouse and all 10 babies are brown at 12 days old will they change color?
That "brown" mouse is actually called Agouti, and your babies will all stay that colour. It is a dominant colour trait, and is honestly a beautiful colour if you are aware of what it is. Agouti isn't actually a colour in and of itself, but rather a pattern. It means that the colour on each individual hair shaft is striped. Typically it's a brown fawn stripe, but it can be a number of different colours. Most any coated animal can come in an agouti pattern. Even one of my dogs (a Havanese) is Agouti. Each of her long hairs is striped blonde and white... which gives her a golden creamy appearance over-all. Many wild animals retain their agouti colour pattern, but the further and further generations that are bred as pets, the closer we come to losing the pattern forever.
