Umbrous Combinations

Umbrous isn't a color itself; it's a gene that puts a grey or brown wash over the background color of a hamster. The exception is umbrous + cream, which results in sable and other colors. Often umbrous creates a paler "heart" shape on the face. I will be adding more pics as I get them. The genetic code for umbrous is Uu or UU. I will put only the color code below, ignoring the other genes in parantheses as not to confuse.
