Well worth the wait!

We didn't start our X year off until the end of april, but we've had 6 kits in 10 days (which is ALOT for us!)
The first litter was a bit of a surprise, we didn't think the momma was due for another couple weeks.

Carli our 1st place Standard Merritt Female and Blake our 1A White JAGS Male gave us trips on 4/29/09. Two whites and one standard - all males!
Here we've got: Frank (the predominantly white), Dean (the mosaic) and Sammy (the standard).

Next up is the litter we've been waiting for since the end of March.
Baby, a gorgeous standard shoots female and Bob our 1st place standard Hummel male gave us two gorgeous kits last year. Ginger (their daughter), took Reserve Champion Color Section at this years nationals. The pair was already put back together before the show, so when we found out how well Ginger did we were ecstatic to be expecting another litter!

Poor Baby has gained more weight than any other pregnant female we've had. We were pretty much expecting our first quads. She was HUGE! I was just about to post a pregnant picture of her today so everyone could play the guessing game. This AM when we woke up there was nothing, we left the house at noon to do some shopping and got back at 3pm and SURPRISE!!! BABIES!!! Trips again - this time to females (YES!!!) and one male.

All REALLY good weights for trips. I cannot WAIT for next years nationals!

I cannot believe we've had two sets of trips in 10 days. We only have 12 animals in breeding so we increased our 'breeding' herd by 50% in just 10 days!!! CRAZY!

Without further adieu, here are Coco, Giorgio, and Vera! (Good luck telling them apart!)

Thank you!!!

I am pretty much on cloud nine - I have been away at school for 4 months and came home to one litter, and had another litter born the next day! I get to enjoy the babies for 3 more days then I'm out of the country for almost 4 months! They're all gonna be huge when I get back! I SO miss enjoying the babies!

 

[Orlandochins]

wow what beautiful kits!!! The boys are named after the rat pack...Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and Sammy Davis and the girls after designers...Coco Chanel, Giorgio Armani and Vera Wang!!!!!
