I had a litter of standard Rex born about a month ago. And 4 of the 9 kits look like castor/amber. The dam is A Lilac Fawn, and the sire is a Red. I'll atach pix of the amber/castor kits below. Any ideas will be gladly appreciated!

If the dam is lilac fawn
A_bbC_ddee
and the sire is Red
A_B_C_D_ee
the ONLY thing you can get is MORE non-extension
So: Red, Chocolate orange, fawn, Lilac fawn
(possible ermine, otter ermine, or tortoise shell if they carry recessives)
If you have castor, or amber, the the parents cannot be fawn & red

Thank you! What color do you think the kits are?
 
amber is chocolate agouti. and it looks like you have agouti kits. The first three look like regular castors, the last two time will tell, they just might be lighter castors. So perhaps post a pic of the parents.
