Re:What is your color preference? - 2007/09/01 17:06would someone clarify something I read about two types of hedgies - Agouti and Algerian. Algerian has dark masks and mottling on the underside (and the 'beauty marks' on my pippi's tiny hiney I believe is part of her algerian mottling). Is Agouti used to describe those with pale snouts and light or no masks?

Re:What is your color preference? - 2007/09/02 07:10Do any breeders on here sell algerians?Your best bet is to ask the individual breeder what they have available at the moment. A lot of breeders do have hedgehogs with algerian markings in different colors.
Is Agouti used to describe those with pale snouts and light or no masks? Agouti is a type of gene involved in color inheritance, not a color itself.
for me it's dark colors. the darker the better. i'm not so sure as to what color my Penelope is (and i haven't posted any of her pics yet) but i'm thinking chocolate? grayish brownish whatever color with a dark mask and some dark fur on her feet.
i'd love it if i had a totally dark haired, dark quilled hedgie! like a little ball of.. chocolate?Katherine Y shoe obsessed philophy major who loooooves her birdies! and Penelope the hedgie!

Re:What is your color preference? - 2008/04/20 14:18I love the darker hedgie colors Algerian Blacks are to die for, though I do love pintos. Hmm, maybe it has something to do with my love for my appaloosa mare Dingo's mom -Laura
