Coat Variations

Just some custom pictures of what the different types of hamsters I have are:

Priss (F):  Syrian Hamster
(The white undercoat makes this hamster an agouti, as all Syrians possess this trait.  Because she is Aa and Bub is aa, the majority of her children came out as Syrian and the minority as Champagne)
Bub (M):  Black Eyed White Self Hamster
(Self is the opposite of Agouti.  Bub is all one color besides the tan colored sheen to his coat) 
Spinal (F):  Black Syrian Hamster
(Black is a recessive trait in Syrians, and has no ticking on the coat.  Since the most recent parent was an Aa   Syrian Male, she only had <25% Diluted Black Syrian pups.  When she mated with Bub who is aa, the majority of the babies were Diluted Black or White due to the majority of traits being recessive.)
