As Redemption grows and his hair grows back out, it still looks like it is going to be Texel hair, but it is also developing rosettes. Right now I see one on each side of his behind and one on each side of his back. I don't see one on the top of his head, at least not yet. Does that mean anything as far as type of guinea pig he might be? Everything in his short, sad history points to him being the product of irresponsible breeding, but that being said, might he be a particular kind or have features of a certain kind in his mix? I have read that an Abyssinian will have rosettes like that and more, and a Crested will have one on its head. But I have not read that either of those two will have Texel-type hair.
