What the heck is this?

These kits are out of Fern (Tort) and Shadow (Black). This is only Shadow's second litter, so we are still figuring out his genetics. I got the expected black kits, the expected tort kits, and then I got 2 that are throwing me.

They were pink when they were born. Then their fur started coming in and I thought they were just going to be shaded like others we have gotten. Then the next day, I noticed their fur looked silver. I tried to catch it on camera. Hopefully you can see it. They definitely have darker tails, etc like my others. The body color is what seems silver.

Here is the whole litter

Here's what I thought they were going to look like, but the ones that look like this have a fawn undertone to their fur.

Probably sable point. Maybe himis. My first sable points were basically white until they turned 4-5 weeks old.. even then, they looked like himis with brown eyes.

i dunno, but those red ones are gorgeous!!

I was thinking sable point as well. You'll know when their eyes open if they're himis or not.

Could thet be blue torts? Or are they darker then that?

Blue torts are much darker.. not almost white like that.
