I'm having trouble determining whether this girl is blue point or tortie/seal point. One of her siblings is a dilute calico (dad carries dilute gene) so I'm unsure here. She's 4 weeks old.

Wilbur is next to the red boy. Marshall is at the bottom of pic. (Sorry about the quality of the pics. They are hard to keep still).

I'm also having trouble identifying her brothers color (pictured above). I have two boys that are either cream points or flame points. I thought their color points would be showing more now at 4 weeks old if they were flames. Can anyone enlighten me?

I'd say tortie seal point, because in that one picture you can see the variation of color around her right back paw. She's a cutie!

I think those are cream points- their coloring seems lighter than a flame.

I'm so glad I asked! I've had them listed as flames! I think you're correct too. I wondered why it was taking so long for them to show much color. This explains it. I'suppose I'll have to break it to their new owners that I goofed on that one. Of course they won't be going to their new homes for another 6 weeks at least. Thanks so much for the help!
So cute! What color are the parents?

Mom is tortie seal point and dad is silver tabby who is CPC & dilute carrier
Aw, since the mom is tortie we can't tell that way. If she were red or cream and the dad dark then the baby would have to be tortie, but since she could have gotten either color from mom that's not a clue.
My guess is that she is tortie because of her back toes. I don't think they'd be patchy like that if she were solid point.
