Yes, she looks like an agouti, chestnut to be specific.

As you probably know, the cream around her eyes, nose, ears, and on her belly, inner hind feet and undertail is the best indicator of agouti. The golden hues in her surface color tell you it's chestnut. She is beautiful! :)

That wool can make it tricky to identify colors at first - the pigment and banding pattern is s-t-r-e-t-c-h-e-d out along the length of the hairshaft, so it doesn't look the same as on normal fur. Still, if you blow into the shorter fur along her back you should be able to pick up the ring pattern.
