  • I love the curly mutation! The "Ebony Curl" could be the name of the mutation. I think you could treat it as the velvet and call any mutations with the curly gene a TOC or Touch of Curl. This chinchilla is beautiful and I can''t wait until they are available to small hobbyists and breeders. I would love to see what the Angora/Curl develops as.

  • The ebony-linked curly chinchillas should be called rex. This would make sense since rex is what curly furred mice and rats are called. If the angora/curly babies work out, they should be called texel because that''s what angora rex mice are called. Using the same name for the same phenotype would be very convenient because then people who know about rats and mice will understand a bit about chinchillas, too.
