This first kitten. She is a girl. I believe she is a Mink because she was born with this color. She was born a tanish color.

Hmm, from what I can find it says mink Ragdolls have aqua eyes, and hers look pretty blue to me! She also isn't as dark as pictures of mink Ragdolls that I could find.

What color are the parents (what it says on their papers)?

I’ve read that the majority of minks have aqua eyes but there may be one with blue eyes. Her dad is a mink and mom is a Traditional. Her eyes may change as she gets older.

I would say seal point bicolor for all of those kittens. They are adorable!

Wow, it's really hard to find a color chart with mink Ragdolls on it! This is the only one I could find: Pattern Predications – New York Ragdolls

It says a litter between a mink and a pointed will have about 50% mink kittens, so it's definitely possible. Do you have a mentor or a more experienced breeder you could ask?
Thank you! My mentor is going through heart surgery so I can’t ask him about the cats at the moment.

This is the second kitten. All pics are of him. He is the darker of the kittens in the pictures with two. I know he is a Seal but I can’t decide if he is a mink or traditional... he seemed pretty dark as a kitten. What do you think?
