What a handsome fellow!

Just so you know, the tabby is probably a princess and the red is a boy.

I wonder if the whites will get marking like dad as they get older?

There could be two dads...

So the white ones have a small spot of color on the top of their head?

They look to be solid white. All princess and one little prince (orange). I believe she is still having contractions so she may not be finished yet!

If they are solid white, they could remain that way or they could have "pointed" markings (siamese markings) as pointed markings are directly related to temperature, while the kitten is warm inside momma's tummy, they are white but after they are born they slowly develop tan/brown coloring on their face, ears and tail and possibly on their paws (depending on whether they carry the "white socked" gene) as well, the coat over the rest of the body typically turns tan.

This is what I mean by pointed pattern:


Or you could get one that looks like this, pointed, but with faint tabby markings as well:


Here is a picture of newborn siamese/pointed kittens, as you can see they are all white when they are born:

They're beautiful!

Keep an eye on the little guy with less hair. He looks smaller than the rest and the hair may mean that he's a bit premature.

So cute!  How is mom doing?

I highly recommend weighing them every day so you're sure they're all getting enough.  With 6 babies you're definitely going to have a runt or two.

They are all doing great and mom is doing a wonderful job...the one the looks like it had less hair was just wet from just being born.
