We have successfully paired two of our does to two of our bucks! The first pairing is between a black variegated doe (carries Burmese) to a Black-eyed Silver Agouti buck (Agouti based Marten). Truth be told, I am nervous about what this litter will throw! Since Burmese is C-loc, we are expecting a possibility of Burmese Marten (?!) or something of the sort. I am not going to know a darn thing about the pups that will be thrown from this mix!
The second pairing is between our Blue patched hairless doe to an Agouti Silvermane buck (carries Dwarf). We are making way for future hairless dwarves or just hairless in general! However, for this litter, we are expecting Silvermane, Agouti, Blue, and Black, all pups being furred. But each and every one of these pups will be 100% heterozygous for the Hairless gene. I would say only 25% of these pups will carry for the Dwarf gene. So around 2nd gen., we will be seeing the results we are trying to achieve. I hope you guys are super excited for these pairings! We also are watching for sound temperament considering these pairings are test breedings. We hope to have something available for you guys in September! The does should be due in about 2 weeks or maybe less. Keep your eyes peeled for pictures to come. Much love, Madratter Rattery.
