Congratulations...it's always very exciting getting new kittens...

to answer your questions...all kittens (all breeds) are born with blue eyes then they change into their correct colors...not all minks will have the striking aqua eyes...the minks eyes range between a green aqua to the blue aqua...my parents have two champagne minks with greener aqua eyes compared to my Fin who has the bright blue aqua...then there is my Alastair who is a mink but has the green/gold color of a solid...it happens.

I wouldn't worry too much about the shy kitten...he will warm up, once you get him home just keep picking him up and cuddling him for short periods of time and he will come around...just let him know you are there to love him and it will all work out...if he starts being really aggressive then there's a problem...but sometimes they need a little time to warm up...

Can't wait to see pics of them...they sound beautiful!!!
