I am thinking of breeding my two bunnies, but I have no idea what colours to expect. Here is the buck5211432E-EF28-48CC-AFF2-69F1F2E76C48.jpeg
here is the doe, we were told by the breeder that she’s fawn but to me she looks more orange especially in sunlight. 798EFFBD-04BB-4861-9CAB-545687184BF8.jpeg
 
Without pedigree always hard to guess. Their both blacks. But the dominant gene i see the agouti. So more bunnies will be of the agouti variety.
 
Showing on the colors I would say that some will probably be orange or blue with some white spots from the buck. Either way it is really hard to say. (Hehe that rhymed)
 
I can't remember if fawn lops under BRC standards are dilute or not. If it is, the most likely color out of this is Opal. If not, the most likely color out of this is Agouti (called chestnut in the US). You'll have a good chance at other colors like Blues depending on what they carry, and half have a chance to be split or vienna carrier.
 
Hey I was just wondering the exact same thing I want to breed my 2 but unsure on the does colour the previous owner of her thinks she’s broken brown but I don’t think she’s got it right she thinks both parents are pedigree with certificates but lost her contact now so can’t message to ask so was just wondering if you or someone else may have a rough idea? My buck is black otter
