Here is a nice picture of an Australian Self Bengalese. This is a Chestnut with quite Red Brown/Ginger colourings and good underbelly markings. The reason that this is called a Chestnut is because the top mandible is a dark grey and not a light bone colour like a true Ginger or Red Brown (Fawn) should be.

This is my favorite picture of an Australian Self so far

Beautiful Bengo, one of the nicest I have seen colour/markings wise.

Jewel,

Thanks for the nice feedback, I think they are nice too :thumbup: . Its called a Chocolate Self, you could say that it is the natural colour of the Bengalese.
If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

Cheers

Paul
