Isla & Gulliver - 5 Kits
Born on January 18, 2020

Isla and Gulliver have a litter!  Isla has been a very confident and attentive mother to her first-ever babies and we were pleasantly surprised at the size of her litter.  As these are the first magpie and harlequin babies ever born at Hot Cross Buns, we can hardly wait to see how beautiful they are when they get their exquisite fur coats.  

Sweet Tart & Little Boy Blue - 1 Kit
Born on December 20, 2019

Sweet Tart and LBB have a gloriously chubby little black kit.  Being an only baby means he/she doesn't have to share mama milk with anyone, so Sweet Tart has been keeping this little Bun quite well fed.  This is a special baby for us, as it will be her last little one before she is retired and spayed.  She is a wonderful mama. 

1/21/20...Roomba is definitely a doe!  She is quiet, calm, and mellow. 

Goldilocks & Luigi - 3 Kits
Born on December 18, 2019

We are very excited about Goldi & Luigi's wee arrivals.  It looks as though they have a broken chestnut (the darkest baby), a broken cream (the lightest baby), and we're trying to decide if the last baby is a broken black tort or a smutty broken orange.  Whatever colors they may be, we hope that they have each inherited the most important characteristics of all from their parents: a sweet, loving heart.  Goldilocks and Luigi are two of the most lovable buns we have had the joy of knowing.  :) 

12/31/19...We are going with broken chestnut, broken cream, and broken black tort for these little ones.  They are still quite small, but are already finding their way out of the nest box.  The black tort is a little go-getter!

1/6/20...We are revising the broken cream to a broken sable point.  As this little bun grew, it began to look more and more like a sable point, which I had initially discounted because I hadn't looked thoroughly at Luigi and Goldi's pedigrees.  I spent some time with their paperwork today, and they each have at least one sable point great-grandparent, so sable point is now the winner.

1/22/20...The broken chestnut buck has been matched with Family #1 on our waiting list.  

Molly & Albert's Babies - 4 kits
Born on November 10, 2019

Molly kindled mid-morning in a wonderfully fur-lined nest.  She has been very attentive and is feeding them well.  Color-wise I am now guessing a chestnut and a broken chestnut, and possibly an opal and broken opal.  I don't see the tell-tale fawn patch at the backs of their necks yet, so am reserving judgement.  All of the babies appear to be in the agouti family for coloring, so that narrows down the possibilities considerably.  :) 

11/19/19...Molly's babies are growing so quickly!  I'm revising my earlier guess of the babies I thought were chestnut and now believe they are chinchilla and broken chinchilla.  The opal still looks like and opal.  The broken could be a broken squirrel or broken opal, but we'll wait and see a bit longer.  The would have been starring in their first video, but there were a lot of bladder control issues on the set, so everything got a bit soggy and unattractive.  ;)  Maybe next time!

11/27/19...Eyes are open and explorations have begun.  Thus far, only the chinchilla baby has found its way out of the nest box.  All is going beautifully with this litter. 

12/13/19...Molly's litter is very evenly divided.  Two does (the solid opal and broken chin with wonky white ears) and two little bucks (the solid chinchilla and broken squirrel.)  There are some extra thick and fluffy coats in this litter, so we are going to be on "fuzzy watch" for the next week or two.  The chin buck and opal doe are the more outgoing babies, the the broken siblings being slightly more mellow.
