Most of this litter are black torts. These guys are 11 days old and I think I'm looking at three different colors here, but I really need second, third, fourth opinions! Thanks in advance!

And for reference, the single chocolate tort next to a regular black tort sibling:

The mom is black tort carrying chocolate, the dad is Siamese (Sallander) carrying chocolate. Their parents were black tort and chocolate and I don't know if there is dilute in either gene-pool.
 
I think the one is a chocolate sallander but the other 3 look like black sallanders, even if 2 are rather light

I get a lot of variation in my black sable points - some very light some very dark - and I do get blue sable points (and blue harli and blue magpies) once in a while and they are a definite smokey blue colour and not black which is especially noticeable on their tails
 
Thanks, Dood. It's what I suspected, but that bums me out. I am so disappointed that I only got two chocolates out of 11 kits. And that chocolate Sallander/Siamese is the runty of the litter, so I can't possibly use that for breeding stock. :( I'll cross my fingers that the chocolate tort grows out nicely.
