These are the infamous quints from MCBA Natl's. All 5 are thriving. At 6 months, 4 of the 5 are over 600 grams. The female is the biggest at 735 at 6 months! She's a monster, and I almost couldn't tell her from her mom! I am ridiculously excited to show these guys at natl's, they will be exactly a year old the day of the show!

Here are a few takes of the photo shoot of all 5. Not an easy feat!

Wow, that must be one awesome mother! They look fantastic, and wondering how you got them all to stay still for so long to even get a picture let alone more than one!
 
And here is the gorgeous Miss. Auburn!

And here is Pascal, Pericles, and Phoebe.

Pascal is from my Champion White(PW) Male. He'll be 16 months at natl's, but I think I might show him again.

Pericles is also from my Ch White Male, but a different mom.

And Phoebe is my FIRST beige from show lines! Super excited to see how she turns out! She is from a breedback of Pericles' mom. She tried to rip her little brothers face off shortly after birth, but after being separated for 5 weeks, they seem to be getting along now.

She did fantastic! My mom had to rotate the babies for the first few weeks, but they only received minimal milk supplement. At around 4 weeks they were all in the same cage getting along.

The first picture is brought to you by the magic that is shredded wheat! The others were 1 decent shot in 10 blurs!
 
Figure the odds on that one Mish. :)

Beautimuss bebbies, and other sundry chins.
