looks like you have a blue broken fuzzy and a black eyed white/cream fuzzy (or it could also be a really pale broken, you should be able to see soon if it is)

fuzzy is recessive so if you have it in your lines it will pop out from time to time.

to find out more about it you would need to wait until someone who knows genetics better pops along.
all I know is there is more than one type of hairless , and that some of the types of hairless do carry a bit of fuzz.

a few years back I was breeding hairless and getting these







then at one point just ended up with more normal coated as I bred to non carryers of the gene.

a few generations later I started getting these from the normal coated ones







at this point I didnt recall adding new blood to my mice collection so I belive it to be the same genetics as the first ones.
I have always thought that my first mice were fuzzy ( they were never truley bald) but breeding fuzzy to fuzzy did seem to get them less fuzzy.

After generations of no fuzzy breedings, The hets (carryers of this gene) pop out these really fuzzy fuzzys.
so it would be hard to say for sure what you have as I belive some types geneticly are the same but can look totally different.

The ones with just a bit of hair are probably fuzzy. Mine didn't get a full coat until about 8 weeks old. When all his sibs were sleek and pretty, he was still almost naked! He had a coat like peach fuzz until he was weaned.
