Decisions, Decisions

As Litter B approaches their first birthday, I am trying to narrow my holdback choice down to one baby.

The final two candidates are both female: Baby 04 and Baby 09. Baby 09 was my original pick, but Baby 04 is giving her a sudden run for her money.

Here are some photos:

Side by side in their drawers (Baby 04 left, Baby 09 right):

Solo Baby 04 again…of course she decided to shed the day *after* I took photos, so I had to take them again:


Baby Pile…Baby 04 on the top/left, and Baby 09 on the bottom/right. The former had just shed, the latter had not:


So why is this even close? Because I am shooting for a *red* holdback, and am not entirely sure that Baby 04, despite her promise, will develop that way. (Of course, I’m not 100% sure about Baby 09 as well…)

So…thoughts?

Thank you for your input,

Oh boy! I really like 09 better but will she be the red you are looking at for holdback. Heck just keep both since they are female!

Thanks Mark! I actually have six other holdbacks, four of them girls, so can afford to cut one. Plus, I need the space! (Not sure on the red part...time will tell!)

I hear ya on space! Goodluck Cliff!

Thank you, Mark!
