New Rats...colors?

[Jay_Bunny]

I'm going to try my hand at breeding. Again and got a few rats I'm raising up to be breeders. If you know what color/pattern they are, let me know as Id like to breed for different genes.

Chu - female


Mordichai - male


Serenity - female


Firefly - female


Rigby - male

Weird. I'm able to see them. I had to post them using my cell phone but I am able to see them on my laptop.

Pics working fine for me.

Thanks. I used to breed for colors a long time ago and I've forgotten most of the genes. I think the two darker ones are Berkshires but please someone correct me if I'm wrong. Chu is an PEW dumbo, but I'm not sure about Mordichai. (I'm sure I'm spelling his name wrong....my boyfriend named him). Serenity looks like an agouti and her belly is white so maybe she's Berkshire too? I have no idea.

Looks like an albino, mink, agouti and blacks. Can't be 100% sure without peds tho, but they're fairly close guesses.

Thanks bettagurl. What kind of genetics are behind a mink? And any ideas on the wavy fur?

[Rhasputin]

The wavy fur is rex.
Albino, mink, agouti, black, black. That's your colors. The mink could be beige. It's hard to tell in the lighting.

Thank you. I will look up Mink and find out more about the genetics.
