Is this just an ugly br velvet folks?

Debbie · 06-11-2006, 11:37 AM

Or should I be calling her something else?
Born in Dec.05 from a br.velvet dame and a hetero sire.
She has a mask, but a poor hood.
Awesome size and a wooshy cuddler. She would rather be in my arms or in her cage than out on the floor.
She is so much lighter than the others I have here, I'm just wondering if I should put something else on her pedigree that would fit better.
Any thoughts?

I think she is just a poorly veiled Brown Velvet Debbie, otherwise she looks nice though. You could fix that by breeding to a very well veiled darker Standard.

Thanks Carleen,
Yes does go to show the importance of the grey gene in the colors eh!

I don't think she's ugly at all !! I know what you mean, though

aww - she isn't ugly at all - beautiful. Does show the importance of good colours to breed from though - Hope you enjoy having her with you

We have an adorable little girl who has similar traits but is a black, nice dark mask but lacking in the veiling along the back. I think it adds character plus you couldn't ask for a more friendly or affectionate chin though. She will be available for sale in about 2 to 3 weeks.

Will email pictures on request.

Thanks all,
I know , I don't think she is ugly

ugly, she is just br.velvet ugly/ not good.
She has a nice size and shape though, and is such a cuddly little darling.
I try to be as honest as I possibly can with customers, and I would be reluctant to suggest she be used in breeding,except as Carleen said, with a good quality standard.
The other has beautiful coloring but a little smaller, and showing them both as br. velvets sure brings up questions from potential buyers.
Chatting about such things with you guys gives me betters ways to explain things.
It's just her veiling that's poor
Thanks a bunch

With her having such a lovely temperment, if she is wanted as a breeder I hope she gets paired up with a lovely natured male - the kits would be nice

But she'd make a lovely pet with her nature too

LOL @ br. velvet ugly. I think she's cute too.

I also agree with NZ.
