    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Been a long time coming.....motley litter!

I've waited a very long time for this. The first time I saw a motley, I had to have one. And after a long wait We finally have a small litter. 3 normal and 8 anything but normal mots. We'll get more pix and post shed pix later. The weather is wreaking havoc with our internet.

Yes, the last picture is our keeper "white lightning" Enjoy!

Woooooooooooooo hoooooooooooooooooooo. Very nice. Congrats on an awesome litter.
 
Wow Laura!! Are those a couple of supers that I see?? They can't be right?? Since you have normals? I just know that I see some AWESOME animals in those pics!! I have a very unique male mot from Greg Bennett, here in/near Atlanta. IF you decide not to keep them all...I sure could use a unique female!! ;) Congrats!!!!!!
 
Thanx gang. Wer'e only keeping one, "white lighting" is the fine dorsal stripped, and it's a girl! matt there are a couple of females in this litter:dgrin: I offered Bry a deal that he couldn't refuse in order to sex the litter hehehe We only sexed 4 of them, one of the normals and 3 mots. Our hold back is female, the other oddball striped is a female, 1 male mot and male normal. Wer'e gonna wait to sex the rest after they shed.
 
I didn't even notice that pin stripe on White Lightning until just now. I thought it was flash wash or something till I looked a bit closer. That's insanely cool. Can't wait to see that one as it grows. (wouldn't mind seeing some others that you have growing also. Hint hint :) )


Sweet litter. About time things start rolling your way. :thumbsup:
 
Super Duper Congrats Laura!! Those are some beautiful motleys, white lightning is just too cool, hadn't seen one like that before. I like the one with lil lightning in the 2nd pic on the top right, great contrast and killer stripe too! Motleys are so variable. Looking forward to the post-shed pics, congrats again!
 
This happened when I was without internet - congrats on a fantastic litter. First thought I had was that you guys were playing stripey games, so I'll just ask. Were you hoping for something like this, or did stripes simply decide to happen?
 
I think you might want to hold onto that one...no matter how much I offer you. :D

That's an insanely cool looking animal. One of the most unique Mots I've seen yet. It would be nice for the pin-striping to get passed along later. :yesnod:
 
H, was wondering where you were. No we were not trying to achieve these results. I actually wanted to sell the sire before they were paired up as I did not think that he made the grade. Guess I was wrong.

Rick, she's a beauty and has a wonderful temperament. I think she should be a pet....my pet :D

We'll have more pix when they've all shed. Thanx again for the compliments.

I completely dislike the crossing of genetic pattern morphs I.E. ... Motley Jungles, Arab Jungles etc. The male I used wasn't because of the albino gene but because of his lack of pattern abnormalities. So in trying to not to create anything but hottie classic Mots we got these instead. I will admit the pin-stripping is way freakin cool.
 
I can't wait to see the other "odd-ball" female after she sheds. These mots are beyond amazing. What a lucky break that you got these instead of just "nice, classic mots"!!
