It's who I am...I have to meddle!

I'm working on hooded and full body blues, champaign, and lilacs...

These colors are recessive rather than color bred. It almost acts like a dilute gene. (cream becomes champain, brown becomes lilac, and black becomes blue) They happened one breeding. I only ever had the cream, brown, and black rats...

Here are a few...



A hooded blue and white...the big rat was once a solid blue, but has grown some caramel coloring where his white would have been...real odd.





full body lilac





Champaign hooded





Here is a cream hooded (with black and blue hoodeds) to compare with the champaign in the pic above
