Ellie sheds again

wftright Jun 22, 2008 03:40 PM

My little girl thayeri shed again today. She's growing and looking nice.

I like her little head spots.

I need to go check my little boy. He keeps taking his f/t fuzzies, and I've seen his head poking out of one of his hides, but I haven't checked him thoroughly in a week or so. He may be planning a shed.

Thanks, I'm also hoping that she'll hold the white. If not, I'll have to get a zonata someday. Either way, she's a great little girl. She's a good eater and is growing well. Someday, I'll breed her to Rocket just for the experience, but she'll mostly just be a pet.

Yep, she's gone from nine grams to fourteen grams in two months. If she keeps up this pace, she'll grow out of eating pinkies before she's eaten the whole bag that I bought for her. Maybe I'll start feeding her two at a time.

Bill,

Maybe someday we can have a family reunion and let Ellie get back together with her sisters.

Anna:

Lucy:

Anna is getting creamy colored, with some dirtying up. Lucy is getting whiter with each shed. I have a nice young male that is from a Dan V white line daddy and a Vivid F1 WC mom who is really excited about getting to meet these girls in a few years.

I can't wait to see how that head pattern is going to turn out on that one in the lower pic.

Bill. All of those LE MSPs are going to produce some big suprises in the future. Mark these words.

Thanks, I'm not going to rush her, but I hope to someday produce at least a few clutches. Who were Rocket's parents? If she produces a large number of surprises, then I'll breed her a little more. I'm still just happy to have her as a pet. Last night, she took her largest meal at 4.0 grams.
