TATE WHELPED IN THE WEE MORNING HOURS.

Although I am still blurry eyed, Tate did great and produced a rainbow litter as I had hoped. There are six total of which two are females and four are males.

Here is how they presented themselves:

• 2:20 am - Male, Yellow Collar. He was 8 1/8 ounces and is either apricot or caramel.
• 3:13 am - Male, Green Collar. Weighed 8 1/4 ounces and is a caramel.
• 3:38 am - Male, Orange Collar and he was a chunky one at 9 5/8 ounces and is a caramel.
• 3:47 am - Female, Rose Collar. She is chocolate but could turn to cafe' at maturity. She weighed 9 1/4 ounces.
• 4:19 am - Female, Black Collar. A tiny thing at 6 5/8 ounces and black as night.
• 4:48 am - Male, Brown Collar (has a blue collar in the pics). Another chocolate that could dilute to cafe'. Weighed 8 7/8 oz.

Remember that in many doodles, chocolates may dilute to lighter shades. All are doing well and Tate is attentive. Happily, she ate this morning and seems very content.
