Well, if both parents have Cc[h] and the Agouti has Aa, then they could have
Agouti, Black and DTW (dark tailed whites). The dark tailed whites look like
PEW when young, they will get a darker tail when they get to be about 6
months old.
Your agouti could be : AaCchE*G*P*
your black could be: aaCchE*G*P*
you would have to do more figuring than that, because not both of the parents
can have the recessive genes at the same loci (letter) or else you would have
to get different babies. For example, if the agouti has Ee, then the black
would have to have EE, or else youwoudl get some babies with ee, which would
make them a different color.
Hope this helps
