Spotted light (ch or cb) DEH does start out white, but
at about two weeks starts turning pale orange and
white (beautiful).
Silver nutmeg start out almost white, then are a light
apricot.
Spotted colorpoint nutmeg start out white and molt at
about 8 weeks into a faint silver/brown.
I get pups that are none of the above. They are light
colorpoint nutmeg/DEH or polar fox. They are white
and by the time I place them (6 weeks) have not
molted. I am thinking that the ones that start out
with dark tipped pigment are the PF (spotted) and the
ones that start out with pink nose and tails are the
LCP ones.

<P>But you can have spotted DEH? All white with
tan tickling instead of white spots tan spots on white
body? And polar fox does have black eyes and
looks all white when it is young?

<DIV></DIV>>A CP nutmeg will develop dark dusty
points in a siamese pattern when it's
<DIV></DIV>>older. I'm not sure what CP DEH's do
tho. Polar Fox would probably become
<DIV></DIV>>obvious as it ages since they have a
light grey ticking all over their body
<DIV></DIV>>(except the white belly), but I've
never seen a CP DEH so I don't know if
<DIV></DIV>>they do too =) However I would think
the polar fox would have greyish
<DIV></DIV>>ticking and a DEH, if any at all would
have yellowish. (it may just be
<DIV></DIV>>white, however.)
