Well Elroy and Astro are VERY socialized. They don't
want to leave papa, just sit on me. Judging by this page:

http://www.ratspacnw.org/non-agouti.htm

Elroy is a beige (depending on light the hood and line are
either light gray or tan)

and

Astro? Astro is something else...something special imo.

Astro is a "Russian Silver" no white, no ticing...smooth.
Looks to be a bit of barbering on the right rib cage...we'll
see how it grows in.

No pictures yet...

I'm working on it! They are so camera shy...that and a
talent for moving and running up TO the camera at the wrong
time! Oh and after checking out how many the 695 can safely
hold and getting a response from a breeder/rescue home in
Missoula I "MIGHT" be getting a Dumbo/Rex or Double
Dumbo/Double Rex! Damn...then I might have to show. Now to
convince SWMBO that I ought to have one.

UPDATE!
**************
Astro appears to not be solid but rather a VERY VERY subtle
hood. The hair across his head and shoulders appears
slightly darker than the rest. He's definitely somewhere
between the blue like I said and or Dove Gray.

Elroy's head and spot appear to be either a Cafe' Au laite'
or ultra light tan...the colouring is very pastel in shade.
It's not a line down his back but rather a spot exactly
equidistant between his neck and hips. Very attractive...

GGMRS has struck yet another innocent rat owner. Well okay
"Mostly innocent" ;^)
