A Little About Me

Please help me identify the color of the darker blue(?) ratties.  The expected colors out of this litter were Russian blue, black, slate blue, and double blue.  The darkest ones look either brown or mink to me instead of the expected Russian blue.

The top two pics are all the rittens in the litter.
 

The pics above and below show the darker rittens to the left and the lighter ones to the right with the suspected double blue in the center.
 

Close up comparison between the two types of blue(?).
 

L to R - slate(?) blue, ? blue, double(?) blue
