Himalayan rats have no agouti genes in them, unless you bred an agouti to them they can't make agouti.Originally Posted by heylookitsjon
Himis are my favorite pointed rats. My first pregnant female was a himi. Mind you she produced 10 healthy agoutis but still.
The rat in your picture is a Siamese, Himalayans are white typically with no body color except the darker points.kdreptiles
Probably wrong, but that looks himalayan to me? I have 3 pink eyed himalayan.
They are white because Himi's are not a pure genetic, they are half albino half Siamese, similar to a super stripe ball python is a yellowbelly and a specter combo.
Both genes land on the same locus, allelic to each other.
Mom is a black rat???Michelle.C
Mother looks Agouti, I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say they are Fawn.
