I woke up this morning to check in on my pregnant girls and find one of them giving birth to the third in a set of triplets! C1, C2, and C3. We've named them James, Scotty and Sulu. They appear to be a large standard (60 grams) and two decent sized XD ebonies (54 and 49 grams). Pictures coming once they fluff up some. The dam is Tess, a medium ebony and the sire is Pete (Token, got him from Tabitha).
 
Here are the pictures!

As promised here are the pictures of the triplets. First is James, a standard. Next is Scotty, an XD ebony and finally we have Sulu. I originally thought him to be a dark ebony, but as he gets fluffier, his color gets weirder. His muzzle is jet black as are his legs, tail and belly. The rest of him is a silvery brown color. The pictures are pretty close to their actual coloring. What do you guys think?

I would label James a standard ebony carrier as he will carry the ebony gene even if he appears standard. Sulu will probably turn darker with age.
 
Do you think Sulu could be a fading white? I really don't know anything about chins colors, but I was told my chin, Merry, was born with those same colors (and he is a fading white) He's 4 months old now and currently grey.
 
I don't think he is a fading white. This little guy has nothing but ebony and standard in his lines. No TOV or beige, or anything else for that matter. I might just keep him just to see what happens with his color. He has me so intrigued.
