A pastel is a commonly used pet term for a light tan. In Europe the pastel is a charcoal (recessive ebony) crossed with beige. Light Tans are a beige and ebony cross and like an ebony they should have brown on the belly as well as the sides and back.

Buy Sapphire Chinchilla Online

Sapphire is a dilute gene on a standard gray chinchilla. It makes the fur shaft clear so the bluer the chinchilla the bluer the sapphire appears. Sapphire is also a recessive, both parents must carry the genes to have a sapphire baby. Sapphires can be distinguished from Blue Diamonds by the presence of barring in the fur. The barring makes Sapphire appear speckled in poorly barred chins. Over the last decade I have been working tirelessly to create a smooth looking blue sapphire and have come a long way towards that goal. There will be no black anywhere on a sapphire, if yours has a black stripe up the bottom of the tail you likely have a light standard gray.
