black and white pups

[kjm623]

Hello I am new to the site. and have a beagle puppy question. We bred are tri color female to a red and white male, half puppies were born tri color and half were born black and white. They are now 3 weeks old. When can we expect the black and white puppies to start showing some color? As of right now 4 of them do not have a spot of brown anywhere.

I guess I am going to have Raggles for sale instead of fullblooded beagle pups.

I've got two-week-old pups and one of them isn't showing any brown yet, but I am 100% positive he will get it. When we got Annie she was 8 weeks and still showing very little brown, she was several months old before the color really came in.

Such simple things to know BEFORE breeding. I can only imagine no health testing ect was done to breed a healthy litter

Beagles appear in a range of colours. ... Tricolour Beagles are almost always born black and white.

As you can see from Cassie's picture she is mainly black and white. She is now 10 1/2 months and recently her head has been getting more reddish-brown. I started seeing the different color in her undercoat about 6 weeks ago so I knew the change was coming. Her back however remains quite black. The breeder did list her as a tri-color even though she was mainly blk and white when we got her at 8 weeks.
