I decided to split the updates up by mother.  These are Indie's babies.  It looks like she has one girl and three boys.  I think they will all be solid chocolate, but I won't know for sure for a few weeks. This was the unplanned litter.  They are 4 days old now (born Feb. 28).

Here is everyone. 

 

 

Now the boys alone.

And the lone girl.

Wow, Amanda, I'm amazed you can tell what sex they are at this age. Congratulations on 3 boys and a girl! They are growing really fast! They're actually starting to look like hedghogs now! ;-D

So cute!

As I don't have much experience with hedgehogs, I'm curious about the different colors you've mentioned! Color genetics intrigue me.

I love the different colors! Very nice!

Tory, there a many different colors ranging from black to albino. Most are some shade of brown. Then there is Pinto (which is said to be dominant, but I once had a Pinto born from two solids, so I think there is also a recessive Pinto!).

awesome!

Amanda, that's really cool!

I spent a lot of time studying horse color genetics, which are fascinating! So many combinations.

I guess I'll understand the coloring when they get a little older.
