Colorpoint from two domestic shorthairs?

Hi guys.
I take care of outdoor kitties in my neighborhood. Recently one of the outdoor cats that I’ve raised since a kitten had kitties. The mama is a regular domestic American shorthair cat. Her mama is a tuxedo cat and mama had all tuxedo kitties except for her, she is a grey striped half white cat, she was also extra fluffy. She gave birth to 3 kitties, one that looks just like her, one black and white, and one colorpoint!! How is this possible? I am pretty sure this is a lynx colorpoint.
I knew he was different when I first saw him. His little eyes glowed red, unlike the others, and he’s a little crossed eyed- all traits of a colorpoint cat, his hair is also more brittle/harsh and than his brothers and he has started to toast more these past few weeks from where he started. His eyes are also still bright blue and his brothers’ are turning green.
Excuse their cute little dirty faces, they just ate in one picture.
So it’s my understanding that this is a Siamese gene, is that right? Siamese and lynx mixed trait? How do these cats usually come about? Is it typical for them to be one in a litter?

Do lynx points like their stomachs rubbed?

My fur baby is a bit chunky and has been willing letting me rub her belly. Her siblings on the other hand don’t like it.. They’re also different colors (2 tux and 1 tabby).

I’ve never had a cat (feral and indoor) that enjoys belly rubs in my life.

My gf loves to paint and recently Matcha (my lynx point) has been an excellent muse for her. Here's her most recent painting, plus a photo of the model herself.

If any of you have art of your Lynx points I'd love to see them in the comments!

Are lynx point domestic cats welcome here?

I highly doubt she has any Siamese in her since I got her from a pregnant stray mom (mom has been adopted too). What do you guys think her adult coloring will look like?

This is our new baby guy Phil! Rescued him three weeks ago today after saying goodbye to my sweet and handsome lynx point Charlie earlier this summer. Phil has saved us more than we saved him. Looking forward to seeing this guy toast. ♥️

Was told she may be a blue lynx point

She has very faint stripes on flanks, forehead and a darker area across shoulders and down her spine.

She is just under 5 months old here

This is my sweet girl Poppy. She was a stray I took in earlier this year. I had no idea what kind of cat she was. She is such a sweetie.

Does anyone else's baby chew a lot?

My lynx point baby is blind and he bites a lot to figure out what things are, so chomps arent unusual; however, he chews on EVERYTHING. he's 3 so he isnt teething but i have teething chew toys for him. Regardless, he chews on all sorts of things--chomps on the brakes on his stroller; chewed on the couch when i first got it; the tires of my bicycle.... I cant even use tin foil to keep him away from things because he chews on that. Is this a lynx point thing or is he just a weirdo??? (He is definitely weird but this might make him extra weird.)

I know siamese are more inclined to have pica but i dont think he has much siamese in him.
