New Holland Lop kits! 5 days old

[volz83]

Hello! I show and breed Holland Lops, specializing in the shaded group such as sable points/torts/REWs/Himi/etc. I recently bred my broken Sable Point doe to my broken black buck (he is out of a solid black doe and a broken sable point buck). My goal is always show quality however I love, love breeding for color! These kits where born on my son's bday: 05/22/2014 so remembering the kits age will be easy LOL I have six cute little ones and mom is doing a great job so far. This will be her third litter and I'm hoping she'll be able to raise them on her own. Her first litter died, second litter was one peanut and one regular kit that I had to foster. Anyways, here are the kits! So far I have two broken dark kits (possible black/seal/or siamese sable) and FOUR pink ones (no hint of any color at all). Will be interesting to see how they turn out!

Day four! Looks like I have four broken sable points however the runt of the litter is slightly darker (though sable points range in degree of smut) and some of them have sliver shinny cast to their fur (could be my camera flash :lol: )? Both parents could be dilute carriers to, 50% chance of it. The two dark broken kits look to be blacks ^_^

Thank you! ^_^ <br /><br /> -- Tue May 27, 2014 2:31 pm -- <br /><br /> Here are the kits pictured at five days old today. Everyone is doing great, the runt is still hanging in their and is getting plenty to eat just still really small. I hope it makes it. I know I do not have any blue points, really hoping for some smoke pearl kits ^_^
