I just had my 4th litter from a Lilac (aabbCddEe) doe and a Lutino chestnut buck (AaBbCDdE_). The chestnut carries self, chocolate, dilute, but I wasnt sure what he carried on the E locus. I first assumed tort but now in the 4th litter I have 2 visible harlequins. One peanut who died and this faint colored one. I assume its Lilac harlequin. But now comes my question. What is the color of this kit from their 3rd litter? I assumed Lynx but was told Lilac Cream by other people but that is not possible now that the sire proved to be a harli carrier. So she must be Lynx right? I'm adding some pictures.

What do u guys think?

The current and 4th litter with the faint harlequin.

She was born with a gray color similar to the gray kit in the new litter. I'm assumg they are going to be the same color.

She turned creamish after that. As you can see, no harlequin markings at all.

How do you know the doe is Ee?
The older kit doesnt look lynx to me. Maybe it's a harlequin with with little markings, if you are sure the buck has to be Eej

I bred the doe out of a Lilac and Blue tort so she is Ee but the buck I wasn't sure about. He is out of a chestnut and opal. In his litter were black, chocolate, and cinnamon.

Is it possible that she is a altered version of Lynx? She does have the gray hairs spread throughout her body but its not dense and you can hardly see it on the pictures but it's there. If you blow in her coat you see a gray undercoat. She has no markings at all.
 
If she has a gray undercoat, then I would change my guess to lynx actually. If you had pictures or remember what she was as a newborn it could be a way to tell for certain, as well - lynx are born lilac with a pink belly and creams are born pink

This is her as a baby. With a pink belly indeed.

And this is her a few days later on the top right.
