Default Satin hamster thinner fur

My white satin hybrid Stephano has thinner fur than my normal coat hybrid Francisco (I think he's natural colour? His fur looks a bit lighter though??). I bought them together so I think they're from the same litter. Is it normal with satin coat hamsters to have thinner fur?

yes satin makes each individual hair much thinner and finer so the coat will appear thinner. His coat his not the Normal wild type colour either and he looks like an albino.

That's good! I was a little worried about him (I worry about them too much tbh). Stephano's albino but his eyes have gotten darker since I got him (they've now dark red, almost brown).
Did you mean Francisco's not the natural wild colour either? I didn't understand your message well, sorry.

sorry I have flu and mis- read! He is a little pale for a normal but he likely still is a normal. They are very cute.

It's fine ^.^

I think he's just a paler version of the normal colour? I have a more accurate picture of his coat colour (sorry it's an an angle though )
