Labs can have black, yellow and chocolate puppies all in the same litter. They carry the genes to produce colors other than the color they are.

Can two chocolate labs have a yellow lab?

yes my yellow lab has a mom that's a black lab and a dads that's yellow and they had black, yellow and Brown labs so you will get a mix NO. Two chocolate labs will ALWAYS have chocolate labs. Chocolates are double recessive which means they only carry the recessive chocolate Gene.


Can you have a black puppy if two chocolate labs mate?

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.

What color puppies will a yellow labe have?

The puppies would be labs (like the mom and dad) ,but the color or colors would depend entirely on which color genes they received from each parent. The black color is dominant; the possibilities for a black puppy are EEBB, EEBb,EeBB, or EeBb. The possibilities for a yellow puppy are eeBB, eeBb, or eebb. Both EEbb and Eebb would produce a chocolate lab. So, to be yellow, the puppy must receive the 'e' gene from both parents, and to be chocolate, the puppy must have received the 'b' gene from both parents--any other combination will produce a black puppy. It should be noted that the combination of eebb will always produce a dog that is yellow, but that has chocolate pigmentation around its eye rims, and on its nose. This is not currently an 'accepted' color for registration with the AKC. Wait what would the majority of the puppies be? Black, yellow, or chocolate? There is also times where is a greyish color, but its rare. We had two black labs stay with us for several months. The female had 9 puppies, 5 were yellow labs, 4 were black, both parents were black labs.

What colour pups will you get when you breed a chocolate lab and black together?

Contrary to popular belief, any color combination of Lab parents can produce any color offspring (two yellow parents can produce black & chocolate pups, for example), so there's just no way to know. In a large litter, there could be some pups of each color. Chocolate is the least common variation, though, so it's possible for a chocolate parent to produce only black and yellow pups.


What breed is the smallest chocolate labs?

Chocolate labs are the breed itself. If you wanted a smaller dog, you would want a female dog because they tend to be smaller. However, almost all chocolate labs are male. To get a smaller dog I would go with a black lab or a yellow lab.


Can a yellow and a chocolate lab have chocolate puppies?

Um, no. One parent has to be a yellow Lab to do that. Actually, you are wrong. A chocolate and a black lab can have yellow puppies. I have had my chocolate female bred with a black male and they had all 3 colors. In fact, she even had a white male which white labs are rare.


Does the color of a Labrador Retriever make a difference?

It really doesn't make a difference but some people say that the yellow labs are the smartest, then the black labs are the second smartest, and the chocolate labs are the dumbest.
