I'm going to have to stick with Kat, she knows her hammies... I don't know the genetics, so I can only go with what I see and know...
Yes she is a cutie lol, waiting for her to wake up so she can have her ball run.
She isn't a cream... and the cinnamon she doesn't have the flash cheeks.
But we can only go with what we know- and since I know what she looks like lol and from all the research and what other breeders have told me I am still sticking with Copper, as everything that she has and doesn't have marking wise is identical....
She is a wonderful loving hamster, if I knew where she was then I'd follow up on it... But From what people have seen of her... that's what I am sticking with, since I haven't found anything to tell me different. Gotta go with the information I know. I wish I was the one that purchased her at a young age, then I'd likely know- I doubt she came from a breeder as in Ontario they are like I mentioned - impossible to find....
But she is lovely, trustworthy, and very very lucky to be alive. So really that's just how I see her.
It's hard for anyone else to say from pictures what I see everyday and nite and can get an up close look on what she looks like, markings, fur etc.... so right now they all point in that direction.....
Your right it is hard to say really truthfully, because we don't know who her parents are... but that is what she is, rare, yes... but perhaps I've just been lucky that she came into my life. she'd be snake food otherwise.
