: : Could resist. I don't know the term "rusty", however sometimes different people but their own names to the same mutation. To confirm whether this is something new, or just a new name for a known mutation I would need to see a picture. Rusty could discribe a red brindle or maybe a hypo, but without a photo I can only guess.

: Adam,
: Here is a pic of a yearling "rusty" black rat. I will try to post some other pics or at least a link to more pics very soon.

Looks to me like a juv lavender. I didn't coin the term lavender, I personally don't think the lavenders are perticularly lavender, they do have lavenderish coloration in places, but I wouldn't call them lavender. However, dispite that that is what they are called. If in fact your 'rusty', is a lavender (which I think it is) it's rusty blotches will darken as will the lateral portion of the animal. Eventually, it will get that lavender like color.
