I picked up two new girls on Saturday and I was just wondering if anyone could help me with the colors (I know it's always hard to see in pics). They are two lovely dumbo girls - supposedly 1 1/2 years old but honestly, they look more like 6 months old!
Snowflake looks more creamy (or off-white) than a PEW and has red eyes. The other girl (no name yet) looks like an agouti but has more gray in it mixed with rusty/brown - kinda like salt and pepper and paprika. Would Snowflake be a champagne and the other one cinnamon or something? It doesn't really matter what they look like but I was just wondering. I never had rats with these colors before. Also, the "agouti" one has one eye that is quite a bit smaller (you can sort of see it in the picture). I wonder if she might be blind in that eye. Bot have a tiny white spot on their forehead. So cute!

Champagne and agouti! Agouti varies a lot. Congrats on the new rats, they're very pretty!

It even varies in the same rat! My blue agouti was a lighter color with less brown when I got him... But then he molted >>
