  Just wondering if she’s a tortioseshell or a harlequin, I can’t tell from the pictures/descriptions online. The first picture looks kind of yellow because of the lighting, sorry.

  He looks a lot like my Bunjamin who is a harlequin pattern- not the breed. Does his back from looking above kinda have checker pattern or is it more random?
  Here is Bunjamin from the top:
  
  His isn’t perfect harlequin by breeding standards but he’s perfect to me

  well, which one is supposed to be checkered? Cuz I don’t think she is, it’s more of a brindle type pattern than anything, if I had to compare.
  
  And yes, she’s a lionhead x Netherlands dwarf, approx 11 weeks old.
  
  I can take & post more pics if you tell me what angles to get.

  I think there is a spotted type of harlequin and another one. Like mine is closest to Japanese Harlequin but he’s not that breed. He’s not nearly big enough. But anyways, this is how I figured it out. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=azpWeRqL-yI&lr=1 It’s a really great resource.

  Thank you. I think the thing that was confusing me then, was that the page I was reading stated that harlequins had their markings on opposite sides, whereas Lily has black down the center of her face, and only one black foot. And her black carries over her back on her bum.
  
  And thank you for your kind words about her, I think she’s very adorable, or I wouldn’t have been suckered into taking her home, lol! She’s not usually as alert as she looks in these photos, she was just weirded out by me putting her in a new cage.
