The kittens usually go into the fuzzies between one and four weeks old but should have lost this by the time they are twelve to fourteen weeks old. The best coated kittens will only stay "in-fuzz" for a very short time. With regards to colour - again some kittens are born with full colour (rufinism) and what you see at birth is what you get as an adult. Others seem to develop their colour over a period of time but should be showing a well developed colour by the time they are a few months old - this will then get even better and in my experience this should be seen earlier than six months in clear coated cats. A Bengal's spots tend to improve as the cat attains its full size, as they become larger and more spaced out.

However, Bengals can change quite dramatically in the winter and their coats can darken quite considerably, and then this will change again in the Spring.

If the Bengal has a ticked coat, i.e. ticked with other than the desirable glitter gene, they will never attain the colour that a truly clear pelted coated Bengal should have.
