This rabbit isn't actually the best example, the black silvered area can begin right at the shoulders or base of the neck, with the whole body being mottled.
Again, I don't use these rabbits in my breeding program.
piebald is defined as:
piebald [pī′bôld]
Etymology: L, pica, magpie; ME, balled, smooth
1 having patches of white hair or skin caused by an absence of melanocytes in those nonpigmented areas. It is a hereditary condition. Compare albinism, vitiligo.
2 having two colors: black and white or brown and white; mottled. piebaldism, n.
piebald
a horse coat color of large, distinct patches of black and white. The patches are irregular in shape.
Sucess for crossing your breed rabbit.
