pigmentation

diluted coat color ( J:13094 )

• dark sepia in color

• unlike mice wildtype for pink-eye the hairs are pigmented from tip to base and do not have large clumps of pigment, but may have small clumps of pigment

integument

diluted coat color ( J:13094 )

• dark sepia in color

• unlike mice wildtype for pink-eye the hairs are pigmented from tip to base and do not have large clumps of pigment, but may have small clumps of pigment
