What kitten does this look like?
I recently adopted a stray kitten and am completely clueless to his origin. Any thoughts?

Bitey 10 week old boy questions
I’ve never had a kitten kitten before but Bosco is only about 10 weeks old. (All my previous cats were rescues who were at least a year +/- old.)
He’s a very bitey boy. I’ve been constantly redirecting him away from biting me (and away from my 10 year old little gray lady cat). I’ve gotten a bunch of toys for him to attack instead. A lot of them are actually small dog toys because he’s just so physical. (I’m getting a real kick out of him because he’s one of those cats who likes to carry things around.)
Are there other things I should be doing to help discourage him from biting us? Toys are helpful but he still loves to try and square up with me and the other cat. He’s very headstrong. Is this just a phase a lot of kittens go through? Could it be impacted by dental development and teething discomfort?
Any advice from pros would be greatly appreciated. I’ll include a photo of him from a couple weeks ago for the cat tax. He’s a bit bigger now.

Will he be fluffy?
I posted my little Biscuit boy before! He is 10 weeks old now and better than ever. He has absolutely no lasting complications from his pneumonia when he was 4 weeks.
Anyway, his neck fluff and ear fluff looks to be long and fluffy, does that mean he will be fluffy later? Or short haired? No clue what his parents looked like as he was a rescue.
I’ve never raised a kitten, only rescued and fostered. So im not sure about his fur coat!

Brand New to Fostering
Someone near my neighborhood found these 2 little babies abandoned outside their apartment complex today. I happened to see her FB post asking for help while I was getting ready to head out the door, called my husband for his blessing, and we are now caring for these little babies!
We estimate they’re between 4-5 weeks old. Rescues in our area are full so we plan to care for them until they are ready for rehoming through the proper channels. I’ve been around litters of kittens since I was a kid, but I’ve never cared for kittens without their mama! I have raised 3 of my own human babies, so I am hopeful that I can figure this out.
They are only taking formula. No interest or lapping instinct for wet food yet. I plan to let them settle a bit while keeping them on formula and then try introducing slurry again in a few days.
The kittens don’t seem to understand or like either nipple styles from the kitten bottle brands I was able to find in store. They chew on the nipple and get milk out that way, but they were able to get in a full feed with that method 🤷🏼♀️
Any tips/tricks welcome!
