Baby Calicos

I've been eagerly waiting for these to hatch. They are from my calico male bred to one of my favorite normal females, a CH reduced pattern blackback that eats like a pig. I'm really happy with how a couple of these turned out, but they are both males. Oh well. It will be fun to see how they color up and watch the white come in.

1.1 normals, 2.1 calicos.

Nice! That last one is going to be a hottie:gj: Congrats!
A nice calico is on my top five 'gotta have' list!

They are all nice, but my favorite is the last pictured. He is beautiful! Keep us posted.:D

Thanks! My favorite is the first one, though the last one comes in a close second. The first one has more of the look that I was going for throughout the body.

I'm trying to reserve judgment until their colors develop, but obviously I'm already playing favorites.

Very nice.... They look awesome.....:D

Love those calicos :gj:

dammm that last calico is great :gj:

Beautiful !! Love that melty pattern and gorgeous color !

Congrats! They are beautiful! :gj:

I love calicos, have to be one of my all time favs, just wish my boy was a higher white.

Beautiful calicos Maki! Congrats!

Send this to me or else :devilish:

I prefer the first one overall too. They all look like they will have a good amount of white. What line are they?

They are Flora and Fauna line calicos. I got my original animals because of their color and reduced pattern. Now I'm trying to add in more blackback while maintaining or enhancing that color.

Are those sugar or are they flora fuana? I like the last one as well. Ive got some pastel x calico (flora fuana) eggs baking right now. Ive got my fingers crossed.
