Chocolate and Chocolate Agouti Grown Up




Here are two French Angora newborns.   Left is self chocolate and right chocolate agouti, a bit lighter in color and the most important telltale sign is the pink ears.



A couple of weeks old, the chocolate agouti is on the left and the self chocolate on the right.
Chocolate agouti: A-bbC-D-E-
Chocolate: aabbC-D-E-
The difference is in the "a" series: A- is the agouti and aa is the self.


At 3 months old, chocolate agouti on the left and chocolate on the right, they are easily distinguished.



Just became seniors, the chocolate agouti on the left has the reddish/orangish tints all over but not the self chocolate. 


Left to right: Self chocolate wool vs chocolate agouti wool from the back at 3 months old.


Left to right: Same two French Angora self chocolate wool vs chocolate agouti wool from the back.   



Chocolate Dream on the left telling her brother George: They are talking about us!
