I haven't updated about the Checkered Giant babies in a while, and I've had more born- so I thought I'd share!!
The first litter is now almost 6 weeks old and doing great. Their momdied at 2 weeks old, and I handfed all of them until about 4.5 weekswhen they transitioned themselves over to pellets all the way. Theyweren't growing as fast as they should have due to being supplemented-but are really starting to pick up the pace now. They are SOOOOO sweet,and all love to give kisses.
I had a second litter born, they will be two weeks old this Saturday.There were 12 born, with seven alive now. There are five blues in thelitter and two blacks. Mom is doing a spectacular job with all thosebabies and they are fat as can be. They are already MUCH larger thanthe other litter was at this age. Little porkers
I had my first fuzzy lop litter born in 5 years, but one was too bigand died during birth- the other is a peanut. I rebred her right awayand I am pretty sure she's pregnant again. She's due the first ofMarch. I can't wait!
Without further ado... here are the pictures!
The oldest litter, the ones I hand fed:
The younger litter:
This picture shows the difference between the black and blue ones. Pictures taken last week.
