Whats going on with my bunny colors?

[LoriEvans]

Hello Group,
I am new here . I recently jumped into breeding meat mutt bunnies and some flemish .
I do not show and my rabbits are not pedigree.
I have a question and was wondering if anyone could help me .
I have a harlequin mutt Doe when I got her she was pregnant to a unknown buck. She had 8 kits 4 chestnut , 4 poorly marked harlequin.
I then bred her to my light grey flemish buck ( possibly a chinchilla not a FG ?) expecting harlequin, actually magpie.
I ended up with 6 obvious chestnut , 1 I'm not sure what and 1 poorly marked harlequin. ( these kits are only 3 days).
I bred the same buck to my sandy FG and got 5 chestnuts , 5 light grey and 2 ghost chins .
Can someone explain these adults and their genetics to me ?

I don't know anything about bunny coloring, but they sure are cute! Will look forward to seeing someone chime in on the genetics

The chinchilla gene blocks yellow colors from being expressed so that’s why your expected harlequins are magpies. Magpies have the ej gene and Cchd gene. Harlequins only have ej gene.
