The doe I bred him to both those time, was a mix doe half New Zealand and half Silver Fox. So wait, lilac otter or Martin? Cause this buck is the pics from my other recent update LOL but produced the otters with the mix doe. But when I bred him to a REW Rex doe (which is where I got all those...

Oh my gosh, you’re my new best friend. I had been trying to figure this stuff out and asking for help on a couple fb groups and have gotten no where! Lol. Thank you so much. Also the little nuggets they have produced together (in two different litters) are always the same, black, blue...

And then, because I forgot to ask, can a Martin produce otter kits? I have a mix doe that I’ve paired him with twice and they ALWAYS throw otters. Pics are a couple otter kits they’ve produced, and then last pic is of me holding the mix doe.

I think I’m going to have to agree on you with him being a Lilac Martin. Thank you again so much! Sorry if the pics are the best, he was being grumpy, probably cause it’s already so hot today and I interrupted his nap because I finally remembered to go check him for rings and get a pic of him...

Oh thank you! I will have to check him for color rings in the fur this evening after work if I remember. I completely forgot to check last night.

You can add a photo to the thread. hopefully the lip keeps them in, but at less than a week old I’m curious as to how they were getting out too as the sides on my nestboxes are high enough (unless there’s too much hay packed in there) that they can’t get out.

Oh that’s good to know! Honestly about color genetics are so confusing to me

I’ve only had one doe so far that wasn’t a good first time mom (overcleaned and then would not feed) but her second round when off without a hitch, another was a little sketchy at first but ended up being completely fine. Other than that, the rest have done wonderfully without any issues (no...

Also, here’s another picture of the buck I have that the lady said was Sallander but you suspect is a lilac otter. The flash is on though. I didn’t grab him out as I had an escapee puppy in the other arm 😅😂

A Lilac otter oh! Well, I mean, he does have any of the tan on him that would be an otter characteristic right? The two Rex does I bred him with this round (the REW and a broke castor) didn’t produce any otters. The broken castor doe paired with him produced mainly REW kits a solid castor and...

oh no! I’m sorry to hear about your week, hopefully it’ll turn around here shortly! I’ve had bad luck in my goats area of the homestead 😵‍💫 luckily the rabbits are still on the up and up. I’ll have to see if I can get the tri again at a better angle in better natural light. The weird one has a...

Hello I’m back with a couple updated pictures 😅😂 the “blue” is looking lighter so I thought I’d check back for your insight, if available? The lighting beforehand wasn’t the most ideal so I tried to get them in some good natural light this round. And then the last one (last two pics), it’s white...

How do you grow them to be sunflower micro greens? Do you grow them in a certain medium, or just in a tray like you would with (wheat/barley/etc) fodder?

I’m new to tri’s and harlequins…but in my Last round of breedings I bred a solid chocolate doe to a black/orange tri and I got a chocolate/orange tri. Disclaimer, this could be wrong, but I’ve read that tris are just the broken version of a harlequin. So I’d say to up your chance of getting...

Lol yes, this is just the cage I use while I’m sexing everyone and taking pics. All the boys go in here while I go through each littler and the girls stay with mom until I get everyone pictured and sexed, then I have multiple large grow out cages that I divide them up into, still keeping bucks...
