colour confusion - Ponder and Stibbons

[nooboo]

well I got some pictures of Ponder today. You may notice she now has a black patch on the top of her head. She never had it before and we are not sure if it's something that's developed or if it's something she managed to pick up (though who knows where) she has been hiding with her treat stick since we got back, she hates it when we don't take her







that shows off the difference in colour between her head and bottom







she is very wiggly







you can see the blackness is only on the tips







here you can see the different colours in her bottom

She is an unusual shade isn't she. She definitly has the umbrous gene as shown by the black ticking which will be where her babies got it from! I think she is an Umbrous Golden but she does have a different shade at the back as you say. Let's see what the others thnk!

here are a few pictures of Stibbons, whom is taking after her mum a lot





here you can see she has the darker head lighter bum syndrome as well





you can see she hasn't got quite as nice a band though





she is so tiny compared to Hex (we are calling her she for the minute, although we think she might be male, because we keep on changing our minds and she seems more appropriate due to the resemblance to mummy) she is still a lot paler than Ponder though I think Ponder was paler when she was little.
