And Now For 1 of next yrs Projects: Lava het Caramel (M) X Butter het Hypo (F).
The Lava male Also Has a Mate Of the Same Genetics. Not sure if she'll be big enough next yr. Which is a shame...Was really looking forward to a few Topaz corns.

Who knows she may surprise you. It is a whole year away now. I love your butter. I am anticipating that is what my little Prudence is going to look like when she is all growed up or at least I hope.
 
Yeah, the butter is at about 140-150 grams. The lava male & female were sold to me as '09s. The female arrived at 30grams. she's at about 50-70 ish havent really bothered her by weighing her. I doubt she'll make the cut. Zena Was border line at 325 grams.
 
well,
i guess i could use the old fishing trick...LOL...stuff her full of small rocks...

Just a story i read or was told years ago...about how a fella won a fishing tourney.
 
:roflmao: That is great. Never heard it before but your disclaimer made me thinking I should have put one on my tube of tooth paste comment.
 
I woke up to my first baby with their nose out of the egg and I am still waiting for him or her to come out and today is only day 52 so hopefully yours will be out soon,Good Luck.The dad is a vanishing pattern poss het anery and the mother is a amelanistic(no known hets).
 
WOW i would love to breed my butter motley with your girl! =] see is beautiful, good find!

have you been giving those eggs a pep talk every now and then.. maybe they need more motivation!?! hehe
 
I don't have any yet, either. Realistically, we're only in the 50's! Probably have a week or three left.
 
Nanci,
Yeah, in all honesty I was expecting pippies around the 22nd or 23rd. But any thing sooner would be Great! :)
