Pedigree NARR: 11BVR0045/01M Nickname: Adam Color: Russian Silver Ears: Standard Coat: Standard Markings: Self Carries: Possibly mink, possibly RED, possibly satin D.O.B. 06/10/11 Litter Page: Dawnbird: DAZL Mockingbird x BVR Dawn Treader at BVR Breeding Status:Current Breeder - had a litter with BVR Tabit, 12 pups born, but none survived. Show Results: 3rd Non-Agouti Buck Notes: A change in plans of a friend breeder surprisingly made Adam available to us, and has given us the opportunity to help try to get russian silver re-established amongst our group and keep it available for those who are working with it, and hopefully help us in our future plans for russian silver burmese and sables. He is a beautiful russian silver, with stunning color and a lovely build, and we are very excited to get to have him here to enjoy and get to work with this variety. An unexpected but not unwelcome opportunity for us here, one which we had thought was years away! Adam was a bit shy and cautious at first but still seems curious and is friendly, and over time has become more confident and outgoing. He's now often the first one at the cage door to see what is going on, and usually tries to hang onto the door when it opens to be the first one out to be able to check things out. He now tucks whenever we pick him up, and is one of our most 'tuck and dangle' guys! We are definitely looking forward to working with him and seeing him grow to his potential as a spectacular boy! Our first attempt at a litter from Adam unfortunately did not succeed - while he did his part well, and 12 babies were produced, the mother did not seem to be able to produce milk, and all of the babies were lost. We are reworking plans, and hope to give Adam another chance at being a father in the future!
