my lil cutie

Boy was i surprised when I got dumbos! I had no idea the parents even carried the gene.

Here is a cute lil one I will be keeping as a breeder, his name is Fivel :) Not sure what color he'd be considered.. Anyone know?

How CUTE!! :love:

cute cute cute. his color is called major QT. :D

Almost looks like a Russian Blue. Do you have an overhead picture of him?

He's very cute! :D

The lightness on his nose makes me think he may molt into a siamese, would this be possible based on the parents?

No. Blues don't turn into Siamese. There are Russian Blue Pointed Siamese, but their base color isn't Blue. Looks like he is just lightening, which is normal for American Blues. I would have a better chance of identifying the color with a body shot. :)

I'm guessing he's either Russian Blue or American Blue. Either way, there should have been a thud warning on this post! So Cute!

Im not sure what a thud warning is? lol


As for a body shot, how are these?

Whoa, in the first picture, he looked Blue.

He isn't though, he is a very pretty little mink. His siblings are little dolls too, very nice looking litter.

A Thud warning is like an extreme cuteness warning. You know, so cute you fell off your chair, hit the desk, etc. :D

he looks yummy

He's a Mink Dumbo and really cute. I'm finding my Dumbo eared rats tend to be the nicest natured rats I've ever raised. No idea why but they just tend to be quite calm right from the get go.

I have an adult female Mink Dumbo named Dee who, though done her productive breeding life, now spends her days socializing our future breeding stock. We call it Dee's Finishing School. :D
