When my rabbits mated, the mother was white and dark brown, while the father was white and lighter brown overall, with a few darker brown patches mixed in. Their litter consisted of:
One pure black
Two pure brown
One exactly like the father (white with dark and light brown)
One all white except for brown ears, nose tip and eye circles
One all white except for black ears, nose tip and eye circles
Two white and black
So from parents where where white/brown with no black, I pretty much got nearly all possible combinations in a single litter.

Rabbit color genetics are difficult to understand. There are more than 45 colors found in rabbits! Each one has a certain genetic code made up of 5 (for solid colors) and 6 (for broken colors) letters/variables. It is hard to say exactly what color your offspring will be. Light brown could mean chocolate, while dark brown could be sable or seal. If I knew the actual names of the colors (which most people wouldn't know anyways) I could tell you for sure, but with such a vague description, it is difficult.

In birds black feathers are dominant over brown feathers Two birds with black feathers were crossed They had an offspring with brown feathers How is this possible?
Both parents were heterozygous (Bb). The offspring would statistically be: BB, Bb, Bb, and bb. All but the bb offspring would be black and the bb would be brown.
A male rabbit has white hair a female has brown hair What do you think the most likey color of their offspring is?
I personally think would be brown, because (a. brown is mostly a dominant trait, and (b. the female's genes are normally more dominant than the male's. But, it could possibly be a mix of brown and white, and that is most likely the correct answer.
If a white rabbit mates with a brown rabbit what is the most likely color of their offsprings?
they would come out with bits of the parents colours They would probably be majority of brown babies possible with white patterns. It depends if either rabbit is of solid colour.

Would young rabbits kill baby rabbits?
no, but the male rabbit will impregnate the female baby offspring when they mature. so young rabbits will not kill the baby rabbit.
Can wild rabbits be different colors?
You do not need to judge a rabbit by its color. I did with my first rabbit and I ended up with a bunny that bit me and used me as a "restroom". Get a rabbit by its temperment. spend some time with the bunnies before you decide. the calmer the bunny, the more relaxed it is, the better.
