Jonnie x Duckie Litter are here!

No Super Bowl babies but it came very close!  Jonnie started showing signs of an impending birth right around midnight.  She was such a trooper!  Never made a sound except for some light panting.

Here is their birth order:

    • VIOLET FEMALE - Born at 12:22 am and weighed 8 3/8 ounces.  She is a black and tan phantom with a small white flash on her chest.
    • ROSE FEMALE - Born at 12:29 am and weighed 9 ounces.  She is a chocolate and tan phantom and has a large white flash on her chest.
    • BLUE MALE - Born at 12:55 am and is the heaviest at 9 5/8 ounces.  He was surely a surprise because he will be either a solid apricot (black nose) or caramel (brown nose/hazel eyes).  I won't know for sure until about 3 weeks or so as pigment takes a while to develop on a newborn.  I don't see any white markings on him as yet.
    • COAL MALE - Born at 1:09 am and weighed 7 1/4 ounces.  He is a black and tan phantom.
    • PINK FEMALE - Born at 1:43 am and weighed 6 1/4 ounces.  She is a chocolate and tan phantom with a small white splash on her chest.
    • TEAL FEMALE - Born at 2:25 am and weighed 7 1/4 ounces.  She is a black and tan phantom.
    • GREEN MALE - Born at 3:43 am and weighed 8 5/8 ounces.  He is a chocolate and tan phantom with a white splash on his chest.
Sadly, a gorgeous chocolate and white parti pup was born dead.  She was a beauty but was meant to be an angel rather than a pet.  :+(



IMPORTANT:
I have an appointment on Wednesday for the pups to be checked over, as well as their mom, and once back home will contact all those on my list if they wish to move forward with sending in a $500 deposit for one of these pups.  This will give you some time to consider if this is the litter or the time to bring home a puppy from ADNE.  Go home date is April 5th, a Sunday at 1 pm.  It is a group pick up where all the new owners come at the same time and we have a 'sit down' to discuss your booklet of information and answer questions. The pups will be 8 weeks and 6 days of age.  I expect most of you will have family over on Easter Sunday as will I.  If this date and time is an issue for you, please pass on this litter and I can give you other breeders that may have a better date for you.  I don't keep pups past their pick up day. Plus, I will have another litter here and space is limited.  If you know for sure that you want a pup and the pick up day is fine, you can always let me know right away by emailing me directly.  :+)

I will do individual pics when the pups are a week old.

    1. Jonnie is being an excellent mother. She is attentive and always cleaning and checking them over and over. They are nursing at will and when not, are happy on the heat pad in the center of the pen. So far, all is good. Yes, I love the 'Mother and Child'(ren) pics too. :+)
