Do you think the first 3 are torts? Perhaps number 1 and 2 are chocolate torts, number 3 is lilac tort, and number 4 is chocolate? They are 8 days old in this picture. Anyone with input would be GREAT!

This is the first litter for both the doe (FA chocolate tort) and buck (FA REW) and both have blacks, chocolates, smoke pearls, and lilacs in their pedigrees so these could really be anything...
 
First two look chocolate tort to me. Third one is either blue or lilac tort. Is the one on the end a tort or solid color? Looks like it may be black tort to me but I really can't see it well.
 
The last one is a little deceiving in this picture. It looks like an even dark chocolate color over the whole body, ears, belly, and tail. Definitely not black though. Just a more chocolate color than the first two. The first two have a more almond color on their backs and chocolate belly, ears, and tail... which is the definition of a tort right? The third has a lighter fawn like colored back with purpley looking ears, tail, and belly.
 
The other ones are definitely some sort of torts, yes. If the last one is chocolate all over, it's probably just a chocolate.

I would say you are probably correct with your first guesses, but I have never been able to tell lilac and dilute colors apart unless there's one of each beside each other.
