I read with some interest today some comments regarding my previous posting and one comment of it with regards to a person being larger than myself struggling to get in my chin room - its is funny how they see this directed as a personal attack and look for sympathy for it. The entrance to my chin room is a gap no bigger than 18-24 inches wide - a lot of my friends cant enter the room, let alone the biggest gossip (amount of lies spread rather than actual size) - so for her to visit to see the animals would be almost impossible without removing cages for her to enter. That was my comment and still stands - but it is intersting to see again how it has bene taken out of context and used in a manner to try and cause further problems.
I find it so sad that so much time and attenetion is focused on causing problems - my normal view of such things is to live and let live - people will always have disagreemenets and fall outs - but it is one thing to dislike someone another to attempt libel and slander - both of which are legal issues to be followed up.
Thankfullty regardless of their trouble making there have also been many comment of positive support and encouragenmebnt - fomr breeders anbd novices, some ofwhom were friends some of whom werent. I have done nothing wrong and have nothing to hide, and dont feel a need to be drawn into the petty world of illusionarry lies being created.
What matters to me at the end of th eday is the chins, their health and safety - and there is no question of that.
My chins are fine - as testified by the RSPCA, NCS, Environmenetal Health and Housing - the only person with a problem about them hasnt even been here to see them.
As far as i know their chins are fine too - so have no need to comment on them. Just because personalities clash i dont fel a need to attack her personally, though we may sometiems lash out in anger at gossips libellous diatribe so far i have kept myself restrained.
As i have always saidto people - if you have woirriesor concerns about me or my chins - speak to me, not about mye behind my back. I would give you the same courtesy. |

A few days ago i had the very pleasant surprise of finding Liara had had triplets, three full sapphires! The kits were two females and a male. Thgier weights were rather small - two at 39g and a 42g, so i wasnt sure that all would make it - but they have soldeired on and all continue to grow, all be it slowly.
I have been very lucky lately my last three litters have all been sapphire related and produced full sapphires and one royal - considering that two of the pairings were carrier to carrier, and only the triplets were from a sapphire to carrier (as it was the first litter for both parent and wished to try and obtain a sapphire from the pairing to ensure carrying the line on if i should lose either of them - as has happened in the past :( )
My sapphire lines are going from strength to strength - most of the carriers I show now are getting awards, which is a huge step up from the original parent stock that I had been using, which did not acheive awards when shown.
The charcoals and pastels are slowly moving in the same direction too - but with their natural colouration often leading to a tinge the effort and work needed there is greater. REcently two very nice char carriers from Davidson chinchillas have done extremely well at shows - I shall be glad when my own char carriers get to that level. Eben some of the carriers I have bought in from one of the UKs top breeders havent acheived anything upon the show bench because the colour is so far down in colour with regards to show quality. Over time this is likely to change but short term means more work and effort on producing carriers using the top standards that we have to then cros these carrier to carrer. It is a lot of time, effort and space, and for now i have had to cut back on the charcoal lines as the main focus has to be the sapphires, and pure standard lines.Current Mood:  happy |
