Awww bless she's a cutie and a lovely colour. Sorry I can't help on the colour but wanted to say congratulations on the new edition to the family.

Hehe I have the same cage as you I bought mine for my new edition Mya on monday.

Hmmm...I'd have said Sable Roan (look at those mottled ears) except that I can't see any eye rings. Having siad that she's even greyer than Molly, who might be a Silver Sable Roan.

She's lovely, whatever she is - one other thing, though - are you sure she's a girl, she's got quite a lot of hair for a baby LH girl?!! :wink:

Edit - some sort of Dom Spot???

[nooboo]

i think she is a dom spot.... and dom spot what though i wouldnt want to guess!!

with the long hair and the white pattern helping to dull the colour could be a range of things to my eyes :s

[Mollz]

Yep, I'd say a dom spot something or other!

[Bunsey]

i thought roan at first, but the colour is of equal strength all over, so now i think dom spot, but i don't know what. i didn't think you could have grey dom spot

[agatecrystal]

sable roan I think?

[Spuds Mum]

I would say not a sable roan - I see no noticeable eye rings - but dom spots I think usually have a 'blaze' on the nose.

I also wouldn't say silver sable, as they still have the eye rings, which are a silvery colour rather than cream.

So Im not much help really...basically I dont know! :wink:

[agatecrystal]

Yeah I see what you mean. I can't decide what she is either! Looks like a good mix of genes in there!

[Holly]

You'll have to bring her to a show and let Andrew Bryan have a look at her in the flesh :wink:

[cloptonite]

I'm rubbish!!

Just thought I'd say she's extremely pretty, whatever she turns out to be :wink:

[souffle]

Maybe a dove dom spot with possibly band in there too?

[lisa]

OOoh blimey quite a lot of suggestions there lol :) I do hope she is a girl as was hoping to breed from her, what breed male would be best to bring the colour out. I may take Holly's advice and bring her to a show to get someone to look at her in the flesh or rather in the fur lol :D Will he be at the willington show? :?

I was lucky there with the cage as I won 4 of them exactly the same off ebay for £35 :D

I got her out to play last night and she does have very faint rings round her eyes I had to look closely to notice them so it's possible she is sable roan :)

[Spuds Mum]

she could be a sable roan then Lisa! Some of them have quite unusual markings, I noticed from my sable roan litter. She is not what would be termed a 'standard' if you like sable roan, but I had a few that looked similar in my litter - here's a photo to show the differences in the markings.

They were all gorgeous, everyone, just as your little girl is
:D
