Looks like Tink's litter is actually the oldest as they have ALL shed out. Started Saturday with a couple, Most on Sunday and acouple of stragglers today. This is my first Holdback X holdback litter and wow, they look really nice!!! REALLY nice!!!

Wilma's litter is 3/4 shed (mostly this morning), also some very nice looking babies. I do love starting the season with stunners!!!!!

I have pics of all of the shed babies but need to find some time to process them, maybe later today. I know - such a tease!!

I really meant to post the pics yesterday but got slammed with work, then my daughter fainted twice - heat exhaustion but we were quite worried since she has a heart defect, and then when I got home cage cleaning comes first and they all seemed to have a poopy party - must be related to being gone on vacation and all fed at the same time on return. I have the pics, mostly processed.

I really like 5, 10 and 13.
The Sac show should have some decent BRB's for a change (I have one maybe I can sneak on your table).
Good work,
Paul

waspinator421 Aug 12, 2008 05:49 PM

Yowza! Quite a variety of shades in that litter. Now what is going on with the dorsal blotches on those? They seem to have some kind of light blushing to them. I've never seen that before... have you?

Thanks Aubrey, I'm pretty excited about this litter.

Their Auntie Amber had a ton of that blushing all over, she is litermate to Phoenix (dad) so yeah I've seen it before and IMO is way cool!!!

Superb litters, congratulations. I think there's something wrong with TI-PH-12, though, feel free to send it to me and I'll find it in my heart to adopt it.

Wow, that one jumped out at me.

Thanks for sharing,
Ed

She's fine, actually had nothing to do with her heart but we had to be sure. Just too much sun, she's in Color Gaurd - flag twirling etc. and they have "camp" all week to practice and learn routines
