What color are kittens when they are born?

Answer 1

orange or ginger is on the X chromosome, women are XX and men are XY, orange in dominant to other colors.The mother gives all of her offspring Xs and the father gives either an X or a Y, if he gives an X it will be a girl, if he gives a Y it will be a boy. If the mother is black and white the male kittens will be some variation of black and white or whatever color she has in her genes,because they wont receive an X with the orange trait on it, the female kittens will be either orange or mixed like calico or tortise shell, because one of their Xs is from the orange male, it will have the orange gene which is either dominant to other colors or blends with them.

Answer 2

Kittens can be all different colors. It mostly depends on how and what the opposite sex is and the color. The main color's are: black, brown, white, spotted, gray, orange, navy blue, and many more.

Answer 3

statistically, you should have a litter with predominantly black and ginger kittens. Most likely a ginger base, with black spots, stripes intermixed and a lesser amount of white (the less dominant color) probably around the paws and chest or facial areas.

Answer 4

I would suppose that they are a very pale orange color at first. Their coat darkens after the first week or so of birth.

They'd be gray.. But some gray kitten do actually change colours when they get older.
