The possible fur colors of the rabbits are light brown and albino.

In genetics, a Punnett square is a graphical representation that is used to forecast the genotype distribution of an offspring and the possible results of a genetic cross between two individuals. Reginald Punnett, a British geneticist, created it.

When it comes to forecasting the inheritance of traits governed by basic Mendelian genetics—in which alleles obey the laws of dominance, recessiveness, and segregation—the Punnett square is especially helpful. The patterns that emerge in the squares offer information about the likelihood that the offspring will have distinct genotypes.
