Actually, my long term goal is for BEW's...my absolute favorites. I want to breed them on my own though, through breeding minimally marked dalis and that sort of thing- which is why I haven't gone out directly looking for BEW's. |
It's funny you should say that, as that is one of the main reasons I chose to keep Noel.
Since she is a recessively Blazed rat, she's completely safe to work with. I am planning to breed her to her brother, Dexter. He was adopted by John and Jane, a couple who live a mere 4 minutes from me - and they will be allowing me to borrow him for a breeding in June/July. I am hoping to bring out more recessive Blazing in that litter, as well as produce some more American Blues and possibly get a couple of minimally marked rats to work on building a BEW line with.
I am also looking to better the ears of my rats, and they should be an improvement there. Noel has some nice, round Dumbo ears and Dex is a Standard, so we should get 50% Dumbos - hopefully all with Noel's lovely ear shape.

Yup, that's why I was interested in some of her babies- I saw her markings and new she would be perfect for exactly that.
Mine need better ears too- they're nicely shaped, but they're too small, both my standard ears and dumbos, so those ears could help mine as well.
