(Trying to post again without the computer eating everything)
Florin dropped her litter on Friday, in the middle of the day. Typical Florin to go against everything we've read. ^_^
She had 14, but sadly one died in the night. She's doing just amazingly as a first time Mum with such a big litter. I don't think she's ever been happier or more proud of herself. She keeps coming over to me and bruxing like: "Look what I did!"
They're squeeking right now, probably fighting over poor Mum who doesn't have quite enough nipples. *peers* ... ^_^ I can just see some little legs trying to kick a brother out of the way ^_^
Most of them seem to be dumbo and taking after Mum in markings, although they're mostly variegated, there are a couple of lighter/darker ones that have me a bit confused. Their fur will come through in the next few days and then I can do some reverse genetics on Mum. I thought I'd got it all figured out from looking at her sisters, but that's the fun of genetics isn't it. (Geek alert)
Anyway! Here's a video of them all (it's a bit poor but there's a good shot of them all in there) and a picture of Mum helping herself to a snack ^_^.
I'll update again in a few days when the sausages have turned into fuzlets. ^_^
