Any recognised crested cavy can be satinised, as
long as it conforms to the Australian Standard for that breed.

Although any cavy breed can be satinised, some breeds show the satinisation better than others - for this reason, many of the darker breeds are not being bred to be satin - such as the crested black.

above is a satin crested saffron cavy, a not so commonly seen breed. "Anmor Edwin" Owned by Michael from Atta-Singh Stud, QLD |

The satin self must still conform to the regular crested standard for the appropriate breed, however the satin gene does seem to darken the coat slightly, but only a shade.

Sometimes when looking at a satin self, the coat appears to be different shades, more time then none this is not the case - it is just the light reflecting off the coat at different angles and showing the satinisation at different intensities.

The most commonly seen crested breed that is satinised is the crested PE whites, and also some crested ticked and crested himalayans. Of course there are other breeds, but not so common.
