As far as I have found in breeding rabbit colours over 25 years, none are sex-linked.
Yes, a rabbit's fur color is a multiallelic triat. However, the color is also influenced by environmental conditions, especially the cold.
My rabbit's fur changes color when she sheds so I'm guessing it's normal
The number of phenotypes produced for a given trait depend on how many genes control the trait. Single-gene trait: has two alleles. Fur has 1
all rabbits are mammals so their warm blooded. Their fur color has nothing to do with the warmth of a rabbit.The fur color doesn't affect the warmth of a rabbit. Its blood does.
Wild rabbits fur color is designed for camo. A wild hare will have a color that is called Aguti in domesticated rabbits. And again a snow hare will have a white coat to blend in with the snow. Domesticated rabbits on the other hand, their fur color comes from genetics. For example you breed a black rabbit to a black rabbit you are going to get 3/4 black and 1/4 what is in their pedigree.
The wild rabbit agoutti coat is dominant.

While there is tremendous color variation in both domestic rabbits and domestic mink Rabbit fur and mink fur are nothing alike. Rabbit fur is finer, softer and the undercoat is a lighter version of the hair coat. The color of a wild rabbit is usually yellowish to tan-brown with agouti banding. Mink fur has a much thicker hair shaft and the color appears to be consistent along the length of the shaft. The color of a wild mink is reddish to chocolate. The mink hair coat is designed for water resistance as well and has an "oilier" feel to it because mink spend time near and in water.
Rabbit fur can also be termed "cony"
The rabbit is a Forrest rabbit. These change to winter fur that is white. The color is for camouflage against larger predators and there for white for the winter snow
There fur changes white so that it will blend in with the snow so that it will be easy for it to hide from its predators.
