::silly:: Both pictures 'look' like beige chinchillas to me.  Are they the same chinchilla or two different chinchillas?

For a chin to be a pink white, it has to have white fur, pink ears and pink pads on it's paws.

They are beauties, I thought we had a homo beige and a tan. :blush2:
Nice animals though. Some times it's hard to tell with pics, some lights really throw off their colors.

  That's what I thought, but then, I know how deceptive photographs can be at times.

Does the top one have a white belly?  Does she/he have what looks like a see-through ring of milk around the iris of her/his eyes?

If the bottom one does not have a white belly, there's a good chance it's a light tan ... what are the colors of the parents and grandparents on both of them?

Below is what the eyes would look like if it is a homo beige.

If the top one has the milky white around the iris, I would think it is a homo beige.  But you would have to have the family history to know for sure.

If the bottom one does NOT have a white belly and his eyes are dark (not pinkor red) I would THINK he is a light tan, but, again, without having the complete background on his family you could not say for sure.

This is why knowing it's background is so important!

I blame it on age, and have to keep pen and paper with me all the time.
Bummer when I forget my note ;D

::silly:: That must be going around this year.  I will leave the computer to go fix myself some coffee, when I get in the kitchen I'm thinking ... "What did I come in here after?"  Go back to the computer ... reach for my coffee cup and then remember why I went to the kitchen, then go back ... only to wonder again ... Why am I in here?
