General Chat / Whats a Pink White?
« on: January 05, 2010, 08:31:27 PM »
O.k. so I know I was born a blonde, but help me out here....I have 2 chins....1 has no markings what-so-ever, white w/pink freckled ears (he was listed as a pink white on his pedigree) & 1 is mostly white w/alittle tan on his tail, 1 tan spot on his head, and speckles on his pink ears (he was listed as a pink white on his pedigree)....so are they both a pink white? or is the second a tan mosaic? or is there even a difference between a pink white and a tan mosaic?

General Breeder Chat / Miscarriage?
« on: November 24, 2009, 06:15:05 PM »
Hi Guys.....I have a riddle for u 
I purchased 2 Homo Beige girls in July of this year from a small breeder near me. Their B-Day is 5/1/09. 10 days later dad was put back in to be w/mom again. The breeder and I kept in touch, and when she decided to sell mom & dad I bought them. The breeder said she was due any day again, which would have added up w/the dates. I monitored her weight and it stayed the same until about a week later when she dropped 20grams. She put it back on within a week. I thought it might have been from me not feeding as many treats as their previous owner had (they were getting waaaay to much). So fast forward until last week.....still no babies (her belly is hard, but no movement can be felt) so we make a trip to the vet. She is carrying 2 kits, and has a few more weeks to go. They are healthy and fine.
So my question is:
Did she have a miscarriage when she lost the 20grams, and reabsorb the kit?

General Breeder Chat / Y is she peeing on him?
« on: August 18, 2009, 07:48:31 PM »
Hi I Had a breeding pair come thru the rescue, and they had several stillborns upon their arrival. We determined they both carried the TOV gene. For their health we split them apart. The male did fine, but the female didn't. I put a neutered male in w/her to perk her up, and it worked. She started eating again. I never c them fight, infact they are always snuggled up together. My question is.....Y does she pee on him? He is a mosaic, so I can c all the yellow pee on him. Ne ideas? Also how do I get the pee off w/out giving him a bath? Thanx

General Breeder Chat / Are they Pregnant?
« on: August 13, 2009, 06:32:30 PM »
Okay here we go.....I had 2 chins come into the rescue about 2 months ago. I was told they were 2yrs. old and 1 was a boy and 1 was a girl, but had not had babies yet. They have only been caged w/each other since they were babies. After I got them home I looked, and they were both girls. I emailed the previous owner, and told her, and she laughed and said "no wonder we never had any babies". Ok now that u have the history, here's the question. After being told they were a "breeding pair" I checked their nipples as I checked their sex. They both had slightly longer nipples than I have seen on a non-pregnant chin before. I have been watching them now for 2mths. and they have remained the same (their nipples). I was under the assumption that you could only barely see them (the nipples) if they are NOT pregnant. Are some chins different? Is it a chin by chin kinda thing, or in a month or so am I gonna have babies?
I have so many people that want to give them a great home, but I am holding them untill I know for sure......Thanx a bunch
