Baby Angora's

This is Flopsy's recent litter. I am so confused about angora colours! When they were born I thought they were all chestnut. Now I am not so sure . . . 2 coppers and a chestnut? The actual colours in the bands are all the same - grey, black and reddish brown. The difference in what you see seems to be more in the amount of each of those colours. The lightest/reddest of the group looks quite different but she actually has the same exact colours as the darkest one just more red/less grey and black. The darkest one has much more grey and black and less reddish brown. Sooo . . . are they chestnut? Copper? or something else entirely! I don't really care myself as they all look wonderful made into yarn but I would like to figure it out so their pedigrees are correct . . .
