Unless something happens to change my mind in the next week, I'd like to introduce you to
Ubuntu Hope, (Ooh-boon-too Hope), my new little girl, who will be coming home with me toward the end of July. She is a seal mink-meaning she is seal colored with a pointed pattern (like a Siamese) but she's not a seal point, because point means "blue eyed. She is mink, which means she has aqua eyes.

The bottom two are more recent. I think she has a lovely head and muzzle. She is also about twice as big as her siblings, so she's a heathy, big girl! I am already in love! I think she's a keeper!

I am thinking about getting a second baby as well....two other litters to choose from any day now....and might make more sense to get two--from two different lines.

Omg so cute!! I'm curious as to how one tells she is mink rather than pointed at this age- is it because of her parentage or is there another way to tell? She is so gorgeous and I am excited that you will be able to restart your breeding program when she is ready! I also think the prospect of getting two is sooo exciting ^_^

By her parentage and also, a true blue eye flashes red in a picture...Aqua does not. Posting another pic with a blue eyed kit so you can see what I mean:

This is a point. See the red flash from the blue eyes?

WAAAAAY too cuuuuuute, Susi!!! I am so glad for you! She is a beautiful girl and should give you some beyoutifool babies too!!!
Thanks, Julie! I think I'd like to show her too, if she turns out as nice as I think she will....and she and Boo should make nice kits! I am lousy at genetics as far as color, but my breeder said, with her being seal mink, and Boo being red or cream mink, I could get most any color kits. Am really hoping to get some more colors into my program. Will be looking at pics of two chocolate girls from a different line...and two more litters are due any day now!

She is stunning Susi!! I don't know what could possibly change your mind, she's a keeper :happy:
Love the name too, cute but formal at the same time. Looking forward to narrated new baby videos already (it's going to be a long wait...)
Oh, LOL...there will definitely be videos! I have made up my mind. She is mine!

Does everybody remember why I chose Ubuntu? If not, here is a lovely explanation of what Ubuntu is:

And my program IS because WE will be.
