What "red parts" and what >do you mean by "the body" Sorry. By "red parts" I mean "orange haired parts" on a Schimmel. By "the body" I mean "the body." Not sure how that could be misinterpreted or clarified. I should have said "greyish" rather than grey, I suppose... They have dark skin under their lightly peachy greyish tinted fur on their points. They look different from other colors when they're next to them. I just got back from an out of town trip & don't feel up to photos at the moment. Maybe later next week.
