Kitty's Babies, Day 10 (Monday 4th August, 2008)

Morning: Colours

I still don't know! Here are two photos of the babies, the first by daylight plus flash, the second in strong sunlight. I've had two suggestions of blue agouti for the light pair, but maybe they're cinnamon?

The babies weigh 305 grams this morning, which makes them 26 grams each - twice as much as last time I weighed them on day 5.

Evening: Sexing

I got it right! The girls have nipples showing this evening, and I got the sexes right. Not so good on the markings, I really can't count. I have, as I initially thought, got six Essex and six unmarked agoutis.

We came to get Kitty out and she was busy feeding babies. She soon finished up and came out for a wander. Here are the evening's photos.
