Babies

Checked on the babies today.   Lila's babies are doing better.  She finally pulled fur and looks like she has been feeding them, they have nice round bellies.  But unfortunately it looks like we do have a peanut, that one is not growing at all.  You can see the size difference here.



It looks like Lilly has accepted Lila's extra baby and she is doing a good job feeding it, another nice round belly.  I am hoping they will get to be closer to the same size.  There is still quite a difference but you can see the nice little round bellies on them.



Lulu's babies are 2 weeks old now and are getting sooooo cute.  They are starting to get out of the nest box now.



Neko, what a big baby.  Has to lay by my feet under the computer and now has a pillow to lay on too.....must have fallen from the couch because I certainly didn't put it there....lol

Blessed with babies.

We have definitely been blessed with babies lately.     Me luvs the babies.

Our oldest baby Alfie, (Lilly's baby) was 9 weeks old and went to her new home on Friday.  A young man was getting her for his sister for Christmas.  She was super cute and we will miss her but I am sure she will love her new home.



Next we have Lollipop's babies who are 5 1/2 weeks old now.   First is Nesquick who unless her colors really change she will be sold in a couple of weeks.

Still not sure about Peter, will need to wait a few weeks and see how he looks then.



Same with Bart, color looks good and as long as his ears don't grow really long, maybe he will be a keeper.



Next we have Lulu's babies who are now 2 1/2 weeks old.  There eyes are open and they are getting around quite well.  Haven't looked them over too closely yet but did see a couple that don't have the right markings and will need to go to the January show to be sold.





Lola had a litter of 3 but one didn't make it.  They are 5 days old now.  So far it looks like we will have a smoke pearl and a seal (not showable).


Lilly had 1 baby on Friday.  So far looks like it will be a blue otter like Alfie was. Since it was the only one in the litter it might get too large to keep but we will see.


Delilah had 4 babies last night when I got home.  She wasn't a very good mom though and had them on the wire and didn't even pull any hair.  They are all still alive this morning but one looks like a peanut so we may lose that one.  The peanut is the dark one in the center, he's smaller and his back legs look weird.  Since Lilly only had one baby I gave her one of Delilah's to help even it out, we will see how that goes.  I should know tonight if Lilly has accepted it and is feeding it.  I do worry about the size difference however  as you can see in the 2nd picture.
