    Shes odd coloring. In the light she looks like a curly Siamese so no clue how shes going to finish her color.

    She looks like a hooded Siamese. When shes finished molting she will most likely lose a lot of the color on her face and back.

    Her head color finally finished with the dark nose and then a dark patch on her rear just above the tail. Has all the signs of a siamene, but shes so much more

    She just a marked Siamese. Very cute! I love them, but in the fancy rat "world" looked down on.

    Re: Rat color Change

    Looks like a hooded Siamese to me. They were being called "Triamese" for a while. But the rat community decided they were undesirable because they lose the points on their feet.

    I bred for these guys a while back, I thought they were beautiful. Despite others not agreeing. I tend to find they get darker points, so losing the light points and creamy body color was acceptable to me. Then again, plain old Siamese have their appeal too.

    She looks like a pink eyed hooded Siamese rat.
    There is pink eye, red eye, ruby eye and black eyed Siamese, I make all 4 eye colors.
    My hooded Siamese rats almost always lose the stripe down the back, it's still there but very hard to see.
    In the end it "should" look like a regular Siamese with dark points and a creamy colored body.
