Looks like it could be a blue tort or a lilac tort-- what color are parents, grandparents?

I think blue tort -- lilac tort's usually have more of a 'glow' to the orange portion of the coat (though that could be lighting) and you don't have chocolate on the sire's side of the pedigree to make lilac tort likely.

Still confused by this kit. I was thinking blue fox because of the markings. I think Mom may be a Chocolate Chin rather than a Sable Chin & there was both her parents are listed as Lilac, one Sable, one Chin.

I see rings:

I can't really say for sure since I can't see her face/ears, but recently I saw some blue torts with undercolor so light it seemed to be almost white. I'm sure that can be mistaken as ring color. How old is this one now? Whenever my tort babies are around the age to molt their baby coat, I see a darker color around the bottom of the hair shaft, then a lighter middle and a normal tort color on top. Just a thought. :)

I don't know why, but I'm thinking fawn....

Id looks more like the fawn I have, and I have a blue tort in my avatar, and your bun looks nothing like him. I have limited experience with both colors though.

Here she is in a pic with a Cream. Is Cream the same as Fawn? We have wondered if it could be the same color.

Does she have actual otter/agouti markings? Doesn't look like it in the baby photos and I can't tell for sure in the newer ones. Why is she bald? :P

Fawn varies according to breed.. I believe that in most breeds it is the dilute of orange (someone correct me if I'm wrong) but in HLs fawn would be a poor/smutty orange and cream is the dilute of orange.

Yes, those are agouti / otter markings. One reason I have been so confused. She is bald because I thought it might help figure out her color since her sister's color is so close to hers. Sister may be just a little lighter. The bottom pic with her is not her sister. Her sister is in the post with other pics of her.

Weird.. she doesn't look like that at all in the baby pictures. Is dilute orange possible out of this pairing? No otter in the ped?
