Was curious if anyone had an idea on what morph this guy is. I'm thinking charcoal?? While on vacation last week in Nc., I stopped by a local petstore & noticed this guy labeled as a "grey rat"
The pet store owner had assumed it was a great rat and labeled it as such when I had inquired. Someone had brought it in, along with a normal corn because they didn't want them anymore.
For the sake of keeping it at a very cheap price, I decided to let the store owner know I was interested in taking this "grey rat" off his hands. Below are several pics to show. I guess I can pair him with my female butter and have my answer in a couple of years. Thanks in advance. Steve

I'm not sure if it's a charcoal or just an interesting anery.
breeding trials will tell.
Either way it's definitely a nice "grey rat" you have there...lol

Going by it's phenotype alone, a charcoal is exactly what it looks like to me too. Looks EXACTLY like many other adults I have seen. No yellow to speak of on the neck region either, just that little hint on the ocular stripe.

It looks pretty textbook man!.....nice find!

...The very non-contrasting subdued blotches that aren't real distinct from the background also are very indicative of charcoals.

Going by the yellow being practically non existant, I was thinking charcoal, but like Jimmy said, it's not out of the realm of being a regular anery as well. I'll know in a year or so when I either have blizzards or snows. Thank you Jimmy & Doug for your input. Steve
