I found this page on hedgie colors...it also offers Hedgies for sale but I thought it was quite helpful in determining colors as colors such as apricot and cinnacot vary so slightly...

I have come to decide that Oragami is a chocolate...he's starting to look more brown than black....Togapie is a apricot...she's got the pink nose instead of the brown... Jynx is still definately a snowflake and I can only hope that more white begins to show....my tentative guesses for the babies are Yoda-chocolate, Karma-apricot, Zen-albino...
It's amusing though for Karma to look just like her mama and be the heftiest out of the hoglets and Yoda to look like his daddy and be on the small side just like his daddy...

That's so crazy. I was just trying to decide what color my baby is. I came across origami's pic and was wondering what color you classified, mine looks alot like him.

There is also this Color Guide as posted on Hedgehog Central. I find it a bit easier to follow than the one on Vickies site.

I would recommend using the color guide at hedgehogcentral.com to determine your hedgehogs' colors. These are the colors as they are recognized by the IHA/IHR.

I also have a color site, but it's designed for color breeding, and uses different color names (the common color names that are used in most other mammals), rather than the IHA recognized names.
atlantishedgehogs.com/hedgehogcolors/ (http://www.atlantishedgehogs.com/hedgehogcolors/IHAtoStandard.html) Shows how the common color names relate to the IHA recognized names.
