Re: Babies being born
Thanks for an explanation. I'm really ignorant when it comes to breeder as I honestly have no desire to breed. But I love seeing little babies 
Do you see any possible holdbacks out of this litter?

Yes, rainbows color up as they mature, the more dark pigment they start with the more they will have as an adult (on average).
Check out my latest litter for sale, there are some previous year baby/adult examples shown in it.......

Of course now that I've told you the secret, I'll have to kill you

Oh yeah!!! And even if they weren't stunning I'd be keeping some as they are Double Het Ghost.

Re: Babies being born
Hrm now I'm really curious about the pair I picked as from the pictures I have they could possibly be very light babies but at the same time the pictures could be edited and could be off by a lot

Taking pictures of BRB's is hard. The colors are so hard to capture. My pics never look as good as the actual animal. Is there other stuff in the background that you can get a feel for how close the colors are? I've seen pics of someone holding an amazing looking BRB in their hand. Problem was their hand was so saturated with color it was clear the colors were amplified way beyond reality.

Thats a really good tip to know, I was previously interested in BRBs and every time I see a litter my interest renews

Nope nothing I can go by just a basic while background. Two different
eople took each photograph, one is a lighter brb which I think wasn't edited so it might be closer to actual color

No Ghosts produced by me - yet!
AFAIK, nobody has produced a Sharp line Ghost yet but there are DH's out there so only a matter of time before some are mature enough to reproduce.

Re: Babies being born
Is around 15 or so an average size litter? I've wanted one of these since I first saw a picture years ago. We got to hold a beautiful yearling male at an expo this spring and my husband fell in love too. He would have come home with us if we hadn't already spent all our money.
Those are some awesome pictures! Thanks for sharing!
