A New BLUE Litter!!!

[BlueGiants]

I was pleasantly surprised this afternoon to see Tina (Blue Flemish Giant) working on a nest. She was due yesterday, but better late than never! She had a litter of 5, 1 was DOA. But the other 4 are looking very good! (Makes me feel a little better after the loss yesterday.)

I'd like to introduce the Dam... Tina... 30 minutes after kindling...

This is the proud Sire... Centaur... (Not much on pictures. Mostly the quiet, handsome type.)

The babies in their nest:

I put a ruler next to them so you can compare their size. They are about 2 hours old here... can you tell, momma has already fed them?

Squirmy babies...

On the move...

Minimum ear length for a Senior Flemish is 6"... Tina's are 7.25".

Cathy, I'm sure I read that flemmies have a bit of fuzz when born... correct? So they aren't just gray skinned, that's blue fuzz on them

Oh, and CONGRATS! They are adorable :hearts:

 

[BlueGiants]

Actually, their skin ispinkish gray. But theyare born with avelveteen like fur over them.

:shock:... ummm ... no?

We want to get flemmies in white, fawn, blue, black and steel. (Any other colors?) Than we want to raise them from babies and create a herd of bonded free range flemmies who are leash trained. Ok so atleast 3. You have white,blue and black right?

LOL! I have no problem being an enabler in your ultimate goal! (Yeah, I have blue, black and white... but I can find you a lovely fawn, or any other colortoo!) Flemish come in 7 colors... Black, Blue, Fawn, Light Gray, Sandy, Steel and White.

Actually, most of my Flemish don't mind the leash. Don't need to be trained to it... they just accept it. And it probably wouldn't be a major task to bond them once they are speutered. They are (for the most part) pretty laid back and accepting.

YES! Ok so this is a ways away....

Right now I may be getting a possible Pal/Flemmie mix!

 

[BlueGiants]

Lucky You!

Hey I want a flemmie but Sam sends me other bunnies instead.

What is this bunny?

 

[polly]

Cathy they look lovely :biggrin2:she done well! you will need to do some updates I would be really interested in how their ears grow in comparison to the rest of them

 

[jcl_24]

Baby blues in a good way lol!!

OMG I can't believe how cute they are.... I just love them! And their ears look so big already!! :shock:

 

[whaleyk98]

I just wanted to say that they are GORGEOUS and out of all the Flemmie colors I think the blues are the best. Mommy and Daddy are beautiful. Congrats on the babies (so jealous!) :inlove:



Im sorry to hear about the other litter too by the way. So sad.:tears2:
