I'm the king of the castle....

[CandyFloss]

Not posted photos for a while and just found these on my camera :

Smartie thinks she's the king (or queen) of the castle

Rolo doesnt fancy going up but Ebonys game for it

Ebony decided to go inside in the end and Truffles went up to be the new king/queen

aww cuties! Love the castle too... thats fab!

 

[Under the weather]

Very snazzy! Did you make it yourself?

 

[CandyFloss]

Thanks - No I didnt make it I'm afraid (wish I could), I got it ages ago (along with 'cup cake cafe' in the background) from a website - had to nail it all together which was fiddly but it all came cut and painted to my specification.

Can try to dig out where I got them from if anyones interested though

How sweet!

I love Smartie's color and markings. Is there a name for this coat pattern?

 

[CandyFloss]

Thanks
I'm not sure what the colour is called - I love it too cos she has a lot of black and a lovely brown stripe and leg - she's a real smartie pants too

 

[PopcornPigs]

I think there is actually a breed emerging called 'belted' which smartie looks like! Read it in a book 8)

 

[CandyFloss]

ooh thanks for that - I'm rubbish at knowing the breeds and names for colours etc - I didnt know there was a belted one ...... you get a type of cattle called a belted galloway (it has a stripe round its belly too) and when I saw her I did wonder.....

 

[PopcornPigs]

Yeaaah, the only pic I can find to show you is on this website http://shopguineapigs.com/breeds.htm

 

[CandyFloss]

Thanks - its interesting to see all the types in that link .... there's also a black and tan on the list which she would fall into too ..... maybe a black and tan belted ....
Her mum is a black self. Dont know her dad because mum was pregnant when I got her but of her 2 sisters - 1 is almost all black with a tiny tan fleck in a couple of places and the other is brown and tan....
