Im very excited about this litter. They were born couple days ago to my favorite tailess female "Bobbie" a white mosaic female bred by Bill Fallis, shes one of my old gals. The father is a **** Ebony male bred by the Craners. One dark ebony female, one female white ebony and a very darkly marked white ebony male. I almost gave up on this male and Im happy he pulled through. Iv always been drawn to the extreme markings that white ebonies have and im super excited to watch them grow. Im helping the white eb female because she was smallest and got bullied by the other siblings but she seems to be doing well with me hand feeding her. Cross your fingers for her.
Funny Bobbie hates bathes but none of her kits ever grew up like that.

I've never seen one keep THAT dark as an adult, but I wonder (all qualities aside) how funny it'd look with them on the show table next to all the "whites". Very cute kits, hoping for some of my own like that later this year ;) I'm never lucky like that though. LOL
 
Ya you really dip in quality with this combo but both parents compliment each other so my fingers crossed. Iv seen dark white ebs but nothing this dark as adults they always fade. So far the little girl is doing good Im still feeding her but shes in with a different mom since the other siblings bully her. I rarely see her even try to nurse off the other momma chin and so hungry when I feed her. But momma chin keeps her all cleaned up and warm.
 
The whole family is beautiful! Congrats to momma for birthing three healthy kits. No doubt in my mind the little girl plans on making it and will do just fine. Foster mothers are amazing. Best of luck with the little one.

Do post updated photos. We all look forward to seeing changes. My work thus far is just standard. So I really love reading posts and threads from those of you working with mutes.
 
I was lucky enough to find another mom that would take her in but first few days she didnt want to nurse off the other mom but now she is. She is still very small compared to the other two but I am thankful shes nursing and getting the good chinnie stuff. Howeer her ear was badly torn and she is blind in the eye she was attacked from.

I was able to take a few new ones of the other two that are still with original mom I didnt want to pester the other lil one just yet. I was trying to not get the flash in there I need to use a better camera and better light next time but It gives you and idea on how they are looking. Lighting up a tad but not to much yet.
