I saw this bunny in the store today. Not seen this colour before. Looks to have dark points. Any thoughts? Thank you.

reh, so good to see you are still here. Thank you for that sequence. It looks so basic....I had to stare at it.
Voltz, black tortoiseshell...the very colour never occurred to me. I'm going to post a picture of one of my bunnies which I would say is a classic tortoiseshell and assumed that was that....camera.....
Sidd I thought it a tortoises but decided it was too dark .

OK, this is a tortoiseshell out of my red line. I suppose this comes via B but to me looks different to the one in the store. Are we talking rufous modifiers as well as ee?

Like many colors, the shade, darkness and overall color varies a lot in torts! Yours looks very bright, so I would say that it is higher in rufus.

yours is beautiful high rufus. Most of what I see is closer to the dark one in the first photo.

Here's a great example, no two examples, of how people here can make a difference. I'm so happy, sidd and NeuBunny thank you, I am smiling in my heart.
Reason one sidd you said my bunny looks very bright. I have been trying for years to get bright deep red into my red line and your comment means the world to me after all this effort. And NeuBunny, you said the bunny is beautiful high rufous. About six years ago I wanted a glowing (bright) red and started out with a Thrianta buck (to supply the rufous) and a tiny orange doe. I went through litters with big ears, all manner of shapes and sizes and the red just got duller not to mention hitch cleaning etc. Now I've about five bunnies with the red of this tortoiseshell.

I'm glad that you're pleased! I would be too! I've never seen such a bright tort, so you must be doing a great job.
