Post Still confused of what type of colouring my Syrian is

Hi guys so I just got my new Syrian hamster named Coco, she is brown with a grey ish layer on the top and some areas with a hint of ginger she also has a white/great stripe on her tummy, she also had a faint black line on her back. Does anyone know what colour scheme etc she is?

Have you got a picture at all? It's very hard to say from that description.

Agreed, pictures would be really helpful bc from that description she sounds more like a Russian Dwarf hamster!

Ye my descriptions are questionable, her black line is more of just a shade and she is definitely a Syrian

Here is a picture

It's tricky to say as it's a bit dark but she may be an Umbrous Cinnamon. Can you take one in a brighter light? What colour is her tummy?

Is the fur at the roots a sort of yellowy cream? She could be a Yellow black. She looks less cinnamon in those pics. Still not clear what she is though. Try and get some in good daylight.

I’ll try, they are a little old them pics, she is asleep right now so it might take a couple of days.

I actually just found these pictures on the internet and she look very similar to this.

Yes she could be Umbrous Golden. Have a look at her undercoat and try and see the colour of that.
