Rory, that's fantastic :) Tell me, is it normal for males to be more speckly than females? Your females look great, but are clearly outclassed by the boys. What I wouldn't give for that second (same as the third?) male. Just wow. Speckles are the way to my heart.

Only a couple are on second sheds now,well unless the late first shedders shed with out me knowing,there all living together so possible to miss them shedding

A few in this litter have really peachy face under belly coloring,this litter is really mellow,none have huffed or displayed at me,one nipped my finger thinking it was food though,was leaning on door when i opened it so used finger to stop it falling out

These guys are are 27 days old in these pictures I took back on the 21st of January. They are in the same sized tub as previous pictures earlier in this thread, geez they have grown quick. Some look as they are coming up to their 3rd slough as I type this.

Haha,no probs

There lightening up quick rory,putting on size quick to,onky a few of my first litter have lightened up,they certainly can eat,i need to feed mine mire i think

There change from baby coloring is quite amazing,some get soeckles fast,others take a while,2 of last seasons holdbacks have only recently shown head speckles,which is quite late as they are coming up to 12 months of age,they did brumate though,but so did others whom showed speckling quite early

There looking great rory
