OK so took a few of Horace.

This is from this right side still the normal pattern


From his left side the white is spreading up


This one you can see how he has lost the classic pattern WW's have on their flanks


THis I just think he looks cute


Sat on my knee you can see how the white is gradually spreading. notice it creeping up his bum


Will take some of the others as they change more.

Good question however WW's won't breed from around October through March.

That's why my pet shop only gets a few litters a year. He has his last litter in now but there won't be any more until April, I guess that is good in my case!!

lol that answers my question thanks. i wonder now why they stop breeding around this time? maybe as the body having enough changes.. and yes your hubby can breathe a sigh of relief on the ww front.. but then again do you still fancy a syrian of your own?lol

I would love a Syrian. But for now I am sticking with my three little dwarfies. I think I have my hands full enough for now.

Oooh thats interesting Rach, not noticed anything with Boris yet. The cahnge I noticed last year was that the 'waves' down the flanks got darker - more flecked with grey - maybe they will lighten slightly, I will have to keep an eye out.

Thanks for sharing though - its really great to see the changes

I just noticed Huxley has patchs that look almost cream above his eyes & a little one on his back. Wouldn't that look gorgeous if he goes cream!!

When i first got Raisin he had a little white patch on his back, and his sides were whiter than usual. i was at a sleepover last night and when i got home in the morning the white patch had got a lot bigger in one night! Really odd
