Finally posted pictures that I promised I'd post....LOL

Here's X1 and X2- Light/Medium Ebony and Extra Dark Ebony males... Was hoping for a TOV Eb female out of this pairring...but didn't get that, LOL. Mom is a Dark Ebony, Dad a black velvet.

Both babies: and you can see dad being a good daddy, and watching over his babies.

hehe, nope...and they'll both be staying here for the time being anyway ;). Whoever turns out the nicest will be staying here.
 
Adorable babies- how did you get such a dark kit with a lighter mom? Is the kit darker than the mom? I did not know that was possible...ebony is so confusing!
 
Megan these are SUPER cute babies! I wish I could kiss and cuddle them all day long!
 
Yep, one kit is much darker then mom. I've found my best pairrings for ebony have been dark/extra dark ebony x dark standard. Seems to give me pretty dark offspring. I'm assuming the factor that played in here, is using the black velvet--and that he is a darker animal. It will be interesting to see how he turns out--if he stays that dark or lightens up.

I had a litter of quads last year mom was an extra dark ebony(slightly darker then this female) and dad was a dark standard. I had a kit that appeared to be extra-dark, a dark and two mediums in the litter :). Gotta love ebony!
