Just wanted to share a couple of my "C" kits who will be staying here for show in 2014.

The first is a TOV violet/ebc male, born September 22, 2013. He is not very photogenic but his color is superb.

The second is my baby, a violet female born October 24, 2013. She looks just like a mini version of her mom, but lighter in color (which I prefer on a violet).

Ok being a newbie as far as showing, I have a quick question. Does "c" mean the gene locus? Being violet genetics?
 
OK Thanks. Does each ranch have its own letter it starts with each year? Or is there a reason its "D" this year?
 
These were my kits born in 2013 - so they are "C" kits according to the letter year assigned by the national organization.

My kits born since January 1 have been "D" kits.

The system is alphabetical, with each year being a different letter (skipping some letters as determined by the national organization) and restarting after "Z" back to "A".

Hope that helps! :)
 
Updated photos of (in order):

MHAC C2 "Anael" (Anna) born 10/24/13

MHAC C5 "Cassiel" born 11/27/13

MHAC C1 "Gabriel" born 9/22/13

I absolutely love how Anna and Cas are turning out; Gabriel lacks size and neck but his color is phenomenal. We will see how he turns out.

Thanks - I don't think I'm showing these guys at Nationals, but definitely at the PA show in May... they're prepped so they could go to Nationals but idk if I want to show them so young at the National level.
