My Chocolate X Broken Chocolate litter just turned a week old.
I was expecting chocolates and black. (Not sure what either parent carries)
When the pigment started coming in 5 or the 6 were dark and 1 was real fur, so I thought it was 5 backs and 1 chocolate.
Well I was wrong, theres 5 chocolates and 1 unknown.
It has black eyes. What do you guys think? I'll have more pictures as the fur comes in more

It's probably Lilac (chocolate and blue). You wouldn't have got any blacks if both parents are chocolate, the entire litter would be chocolate based :)

Well I was told the parents look mock chocolate on another forum and probly had black in their pedigrees somewhere in the line, so I wasnt sure on whether or not I would get blacks. I was just expecting chocoltes,but when I seen the color difference I was thrown off.
I was thinking Lilac, but wasnt 100% sure.
