I'm talking way into the future but what are the best colours to breed with mink and cinnamon? also IF i breed the girl with a male with another thick hood will the offsprings have thick hoods?

there is no best colour to breed her with as it always come back to what they carry. If you breed her to a fawn and he doesn't carry any dilutes you will get all agouti. As for markings, no you can put 2 perfectly marked wide hoods together and still get their variegations like barebacks, capped and then the mismarked inbetweens.
The boy has a lovely colour to his coat and the girl, she has a perfectly symmetrical marked coat. I think they are a great find too but I also am no good with names sorry

the girl's name is zoey and the boys name might be Bruno these might change
also Bruno has made friends with Theo. Theo normally attacks other rats, and after his brother died he was all alone, but these 2 seem to get alone
