My phone was being a butt. Wouldn't keep recording for more pics.
They're shedding so much! Turns out I kept the baby in the pic.

Finally made some graphs!
I need to mark wean dates & temperature changes, as I'm pretty sure the sudden cold was a problem. The scale swapping/troubles also shows up. I don't think weaning, at 7+ weeks, affected anything.

I didn't start them on their first weigh day, whoopsies.

Fostered castor buck is clearly above everyone else. Can't keep him nor compare him to the others because of that.

I could physically see these not growing and plateauing, but they bounced back nicely.

This one, since I can't tell them apart, I did clusters for the litter instead of individual lines. Not many because there's multiples of the same weight.

Well, all steadily gaining, lol.

Love the graphs! You can see so much just glancing at them.

I was taking apart 11's nest, because the cardboard bottom is soggy, when I discovered 5 live kits!
So, she had 1 extra after the original 6, with 2 dead. So, 7 born.
It also turned out that the nest bottom is dry, so I put it back together and left the wet cardboard.

Before I took top half off, fully hidden-

Half removed. Surprise! 5 kits!

Then, Grumpy's mystery kit is chocolate!! And the cute tort looking golden. Rest are black.

Dec 12th-
Decided to list/butcher broken black from Grumpy.
Opal from Lynx jumped up in weight.
Have a few cull marked from the other litters & a few marked to watch/potentially keep back. Just need to get pics for listing them.


New SF buck-

She used to not like me, now the broken blue is always at the door, even licks me. Looks like she's the biggest of the bunch, besides the castor that was fostered.

Repainted the SF black kits. Almost couldn't see the color, guess 10 days is the repainting cycle on those markers.



Yesterday-
Oct 21st, 15 bags. Lasted 9 weeks, as I'm still using the last bag. Almost 12 pounds fed out a day. That's nuts...lol.

More feed! 14 left in stock.

Weighed buns today.

Been keeping track of all purchases of trays, feed & original caging and then the sales of buns.
I'm currently in the red $494.


One of Mutty's black does has out preformed every other litter, except the litter of two!
So, I've decided to keep that doe to replace her mom. Everyone else in the litter & dad will go.

I've also decided to let the 1st Grumpy tort doe go, she's just lagging behind.

Minus the chocolate SF doe, the 9 blacks. A couple are already getting in their silvering! The choc is the biggest, so most likely, I won't keep any others.

And here are the weight charts with who I'm watching✔️, who is a cull❌️ & who might be okay❓️.
