Can you tell me what color these kits are?? They are 17 day old Mini lop kits.

The parents colors are (from Top to bottom and left to right(/) of the pedigree)
Sire: Chestnut agouti/ Opal, Broken black, /Chestnut agouti, Broken black Chinchilla, Broken Fawn, Gold tipped black steel/ Gold tipped black steel, Broken Chestnut agouti, Black Chinchilla, Chocolate Chinchilla, Orange, Broken Chinchilla, Black Chinchilla, Broken Gold tipped steel
Dam: Broken black/Sable point, Broken black/ Sable, Opal, Chestnut agouti, Silver tipped black steel/Broken Blue, Blue, Black chinchilla, Broken Opal, Gold Tipped Black Steel, Broken Chestnut agouti,Silver tipped black steel, Black

The brokens I think are either broken black chinchilla or broken silver tipped black steel. There is a solid silver tipped black steel in the litter. Both Steels and Chinchillas in the background of both parents.

The solid greyish kit on the other hand I thought might be a silver tipped blue steel, but sometimes it has a tanish tint like an opal, but it doesn't have the markings of the opal (belly/eye circles/ inside of ears etc.) Whatever color it is I have a broken one that is the same color

Not sure on the first one, the brokens look more steel to me.. the back looks really dark on them which makes me think steel instead of chin.
 
Nice to see you here, too. :-D

I'll be looking forward to seeing what that dilute kit looks like in a couple weeks.. tricky looking.
 
I know! I sent the updated picture to the breeder I got the mom from and the one that owns the sire of this litter. I will let you know what they think!
