My Kits - One Different Colour...

[Gaz_1989 9,539]

These are my kits, 4 weeks old yesterday.

 

There are 12 from 2 litters, one polecat Jill and one Albino Jill but the polecat Jill died when the kits were 2 weeks old so the Albino has reared all 12 with a little help...

 

 

They are all albino or polecat except this little one. Any ideas what colour this will be?

sandy

I'd say its going to be a sandy

[Gaz_1989 9,539]

Thanks.

 

The hob put over both was a polecat so is that likely to be from the albino Jill or Poley Jill or could it be either?

 

Could the albino Jill produce poleys?

[patterdalejoel 669]

f**k knows... ive seen a white over a polecat produce silvers polecats and everything inbetween.... who knows or cares.......

[lurchers4life 103]

I've had black eyed whites over polecats and had sandys poles and bew I've just put a light polecat over a dark one an I've got black eyed whites sandys and poles mate

[Gaz_1989 9,539]

Haha ok cheers lads.

 

The reason I was asking is because the polecat Jill I lost was an exceptional worker and I would love to know I'm keeping a Jill on from her.

[Gaz_1989 9,539]

Just sexed them and I've got...

 

2 Poley Hobs

2 White Hobs

4 Poley Jill's

3 White Jill's

1 Sandy Jill

 

Don't know if the whites are albino or bew yet.

 

I'm keeping the Sandy and a Poley Jill

I do like a sandy. I have two sandy hobs here.

 

As for getting stuck with the hobs. . . . Joel may be right.

 

However, these days, with the rise in popularity of vac hobs, the number of hobs being bought / taken / kept has gone up.

 

Also, it always worries me how many people breed litters, and how few work hobs.

 

Nice litter by the way mate, well done, I hope they do you proud

Cheers pal. I've got a lovely natured poley hob here, one of the softest I've had. My 3 year old plays with him so gonna get him vasectomised this year and keep him for bringing my Jill's out.

 

I'm keeping the sandy Jill, a Dark Poley Jill and I'm having a Jill off my mate just to mix things up.

 

So hopefully next season I will have a good team.
