Comparisons Page
So, I am always looking for a good page that will show me comparisons Between colors, coat types, ear types all that and can never find one so I decided to make one. It will be raw right now but I will keep adding to it. =] There will be rat and mouse comparisons of many things that are alike. =]
**NOTE: Every color has a variety of shades that it comes in so not all colors are EXACTLY what every rat of that color should look like. Also, remember that lighting, cameras, monitors and many other factors can slightly alter colors but I represented these colors as best I could. Thanks for looking!

RATS:
Dumbo and Standard Eared Baby Rats
This is a picture showing the difference between a dumbo and standard eared baby rat. The standard is on the left and the dumbo is on the right. Notice that even at a few days old the standards ears are closer together and pointed slightly upward where the dumbo's are lower set and point slightly out.
Russian blue point siamese & Seal point Siamese
In this picture I will compare a Russian Blue Point siamese to a Seal point siamese. The seal point is on the left, the russian blue point is on the right. These are siblings so their coat is at the same stage. The seal point is a doe, the russian blue point is a buck. -picture taken with flash

Chocolate and Agouti
The chocolate is on the left and the agouti is on the right. The chocolate is a deeper darker brown and the color should be even throughout(this male has too much silvering and uneven coloring). The agouti has a mix of brown/red, tan and black hairs. Agouti should appear more rich and "ticked" looking. -both pictures were taken with flash.
