She had to wait until the hot part of the day to do it but it appears as if they are all alive and wiggling. I think I counted 8. This is her first litter and she used the nest box and best of all was not aggressive at all when I checked, concerned.
If I have the genetics figured right some of these babies could be magpie or halequinized sallander. I did see alot of "white" in the box but didn't looks close enough to see if I could tell eye color. She could be homozygous for chin but biased on the one kit I checked real quick I think she carries REW.
Anyway excited about this litter and and pleased with her so far. Hope she gets them all fed.
My Hemi doe is due today as well but it looks like she's going to wait for it to cool off. Little Blackie is due tomorrow. She had 13 last time but only 9 made it. These will be my last litters till fall. I bred these so my daughter would have a meat pen to show at the fair which is Sept 8-10.
