Our Blue otter Kit Forky has went to their new home!

Bonnie our Chocolate otter kit will be staying with us to grow out!

NEXT LITTER UPDATE:

Started Weaning this guy last week ! So far we’re doing great! No tummy issues!

Genders are in!

Blue Otter-Buck

Chocolate Otter- Doe~ she will be retained to grow out!

Working with babies is a struggle trying to get pictures!

UPDATE
Kits are doing good they are 3 weeks now, they’re eating hay and pellets! Cammy has been an amazing momma to these two!

Here’s a little photo dump!

Update
All is going well!
Now I think we may have two does!

I should be able to tell for certain around 3-4 weeks when they are a little older! I’m really wanting to keep the blue otter or I may wait for the next litter we have to retain one!

Had our first kit escape the nest!

Bentley has also decided to name these kits! 🤣

Blue Otter is Forky
Chocolate is Bonnie

UPDATE;
Blue kit is looking like a Blue Otter.
Chocolate kit may be a Chocolate Otter I’m not 100% certain yet!

But look at these cuddle bugs! I’ll try sexing them around 3 weeks!

Litter Update;
Both peanuts have passed away, leaving us with a total of Two Kits.

Litter Update;
We at least have 1 chocolate and 1 blue. I cannot tell if they are otters or not yet.

Since peanuts typically fail to thrive we are not counting them in our final count or color count. They can last anywhere from a couple days to a couple weeks but we are going to enjoy them while they are with us and help them if needed.

Peanuts are kits that have inherited a double dwarf gene, their digestive system typically isn’t fully developed and they usually struggle to keep up with the other kits while feeding and developing. We will keep them comfortable and with their siblings until they pass.

UPDATE
4 total, two look like peanuts so they will most likely fail to thrive.
