Possible chocolate agouti?

[RR MiniSatins]

I have a kit that I thought when born was a copper, but it wasn't nearly as dark when born as my other coppers. She's four weeks old now and kinda looks like a weird copper, much lighter tips than they should be. Then today I was reading about chocolate agouti and I'm thinking that might fit. I know the sire, red, carries chocolate but I've never seen a chocolate agouti before. The kit definitely has rings though. Mom is a chin and gave me this rainbow litter. Brown in the middle is the kit I'm talking about. Any input? Thanks

The picture really isn't clear enough.

If it is chocolate based then there won't be black ANYWHERE on the kit so whiskers, toe nails ear tips will all be chocolate instead.

With a red father this kit may have gotten a few extra Rufus factors making it "brighter" or perhaps the doe carries wideband :shock: and this is a wideband chestnut with more midband colour and less on the tips.

That makes sense, I'll check the whiskers and such. The tips almost look dark gold, but she's still pretty young Thanks Dood.
