Siamese questions? Good? Bad? DUW

Ok....so I have a female Seal-Point Siamese. When I got her she was 4 months old and looked like a normal Siamese, creamy colored fur with dark points.

BUT over these past two+ months, she's changed quite a bit! Her over-all coat color is more or a creamy-tan and her shading starts in the middle of her back and is very dark at the base of her tail. (unfortunately, the flash kinda killed the pictures...the shading doesn't show up too well and you can't really see how dark she actually is at the main points)

Personally, I think she's gorgeous. I've never seen a Siamese like her before though, so I was curious about her...is she a bad quality Siamese? A good quality? Will it fade back to how it used to be? Will she stay like this? :oops:

AFRMA:
"This pattern is created because the color of this animal’s fur is determined by the temperature. The cooler it is, the darker the fur grows; therefore, the extremities (ears, nose, feet, and tail) are dark, and the rest of the body is light."

Are your rats in a cooler area of the house? or garage?
Mine are kept pretty warm as the room is around 73 degrees at all times.

Yeah, I had read that also...that was actually another reason I was confused with her coloring. She hadn't been in the garage until just last night. I put her in a bin last night so she could have her babies (she had them today). Before that, she had been inside a room in the house. A very warm room actually....it has all of my dragons and snakes (the heat bulbs and heat tape make and keep the room quite warm).

It's called moulting. She'll most likely grow out of it. :P

Aw man :(
I was hoping she'd stay that darker color. Oh well.
I also have another question....Siamese is recessive, correct?
I paired my Siamese dumbo girl (Ellie) with my Black male (whom is het dumbo). I was really just trying to get some nice black dumbos. I was expecting to have to pair up the babies together when they get old enough so that I could finally make some Siamese babies. But now that Ellie's babies are showing color, there are what looks to be 5 self blacks and 5 Siamese!! So did I just luck out and the male happened to also carry the Siamese gene?

Siamese is Dominate so it's possible that you made more or made some beige rats(red eyed black), but you won't know till they have hair :)
*unless you see black eyed pinks, those should be black eye siamese*

A good read...includes some good info on Siamese...

I'm really confused now....some sites I've read it's recessive and some I've read it's dominant?? Of course, now that I'm looking for the sites, I can't find them :rolleyes:
There are definitely five Siamese babies though.

You know I'm completely confused too, lol, stupid sites tell different things and I should know better.
My first Siamese came from a blue to blue breeding making the trait recessive "I thought", then I read more and get confused more and think they might be Dominate but my breedings tell me different.
I can and do breed blue to black and get Siamese too so now what?

Those lil honey colored rats you have are Siamese :)
