It's a bit of a catch 22 because if you mate her with something darker you are likely just to get darker colored (Lilac) rabbits, but if you mate her with something lighter then you could end up with all white rabbits, rabbits with ticking or dilutes of what color she is. You'd probably be most likely to get rabbits of her color (or similar....maybe a bit darker) if you were to breed her to a Lilac, but as she isn't standardised it's difficult to say. She just looks like a dilute to me, so breeding her to a lighter color could obviously bleach her color out even more.

Hope that made sense

evening all....hope all well...

hope someone can refresh my memory...or maybe i might have made it up but does someone off this forum have a skunk and a reccoon that live together like best mates? i really want one! so starting slowly doing some research now. Figure i will get on a waiting list somewhere which will give me till next summer to prepare. if they are suitable to live with a skunk free then my next task is to convince someone to let me buy it. had contatc off one breeder who wont sell to anyone with young kids...funny thing is my kids are 2 and 3 and never bother even looking at the animals now. sometimes the skunk will curl up with my girls watching tv but they ignore her! (too used and bored of animals!).

oh and how many of you have young kids?

My little boy is older than Emm's son, he is 12. He is borderline auctistic, which sometimes he just locks himself into his own shelf and won't come out. He doesn't communicate using speech but just pen and paper (or computer) except with me and my Dad, sometimes with hubby.

He is okay with my skunk and he helps out to clean and feed whenever he wants to. And my house is a zoo, he is surrounding with animals all his life.
