Dam: SH's Prairie WildFire (dark sable)
Sire: SH's Indigo Night (sable)
entire litter: 4 jills; 3 hobs - dark sables and black sables
Prairie is one of my best structured jills with a beautiful head to go with it. The picture at the top of this page
is Prairie (on the right) with her sister Bonnie - the beauty sisters. I paired her with Indigo
Night (from Indigo FireWorks and Night Sky) because he has matured so nicely and has outstanding bone
structure. He took Best In Show at the Spring Nationals competition this past March. His temperament is
very mellow and he has kept all of his muscle mass despite being in season since January.
I expect these babies to have outstanding bone structure and some really nice head structure too. I expect
their temperaments to be somewhat active though very sane and willing to chill out.
I am very pleased with how this litter has turned out so far. They are beautiful and their personalities are
playful and gentle.

Dam: SH's Katydid (sable)
Sire: SH's Night Sky (dark sable)
entire litter: 1 jill; 1 hob - dark sables or black sables
Katy is from one of my super Moms, Lady Bug. She is also one of my close companions because she is so sociable. Katy had some trouble delivering so her two babies are being raised by Prairie. Night Sky is dark in color and holds some nice body mass. His temperament is quite laid back and his kits from last year are too. These babies will have some nice bone density, nice muscle mass and some very nice temperaments.
These babies have all been reserved.

Dam: SH's Fire Dancer (dark sable)
Sire: SH's Night Sky (dark sable)
entire litter: 5 jills; 3 hobs - dark sables and black sable solids
Dancer is Prairie's daughter and she has shown she is just as exceptional with motherhood as Prairie is. Dancer looks a lot like Prairie and is built just like her. She is very people oriented and seeks me out for snuggles and attention. Night Sky is dark in color and holds some nice body mass. His temperament is quite laid back and his kits from last year are too. These babies will have very nice bone structure, nice muscle mass, nice heads and some very nice temperaments. There are 4 jills that are quite black.
These babies have all been reserved.

Dam: SH's Fire in the Moonlight (black mitt)
Sire: JBF's Thunder Road (black roan mitt)
entire litter: 3 jills; 2 hobs - 1 black roan mitt hob, 1 dark sable hob, 2 black roan mitt jills, 1 sable jill
Moonie is Misty Moonlight's daughter from Batty. Her structure is quite impressive; her bone frame is correct in size and shape with nice bone density. She has been carrying a nice amount of muscle mass during the breeding season and is also keeping it during lactation. This is a pretty tough job for a jill. She has a beautiful head with proper depth and width with a nice wide muzzle. Her temperament is active and easy to get along with. She does well with other ferrets and loves to play with people. Thunder Road has done well in the show circuit which shows he has a nicely structure body with proper body mass. I expect nice structure and temperaments from these babies.
These babies have all been reserved.

Dam: SH's Prairie WildFire (black sable)
Sire: SH's Soldier of Fortune (black roan mitt)
entire litter: 2 jills; 4 hobs - dark sables, black roan mitts
prices: $325 pet, $450 breeder
Prairie WildFire is Batty's sister. She is from FireBrand and Kookie Monster. She has a beautiful head and nice body structure. She is bright and energetic. Soldier is a black roan mitt; stocky and muscular with a great temperament. I expect these babies to be pretty active, intelligent, well built, beautiful and sweet. They should all be average to above average in size with plenty of muscle and body mass. Prairie is from my FireBrand/Batman line and they are my top end ferrets. They are consistent and I have repeat clients that seek them out for their outstanding intellect and structure. I expect these babies to be fun companions and good show prospects.

Sire: SH's CrossFire (Batty) (sable)
entire litter: 2 jills; 3 hobs - dark sables, black roan mitts
prices: $325 pet, $450 breeder
Misty is another beauty. She has done well at the shows - her body structure is well made and sturdy. She has great muscle mass. She is a little more quiet than most of my other jills. She gets along well with others. Batty has an outstanding bone structure and he keeps very good muscle mass throughout the year. I am looking forward to seeing how these babies develop. These temperaments should be pretty easy going. They will be good show prospects.

Indy is a major sweetie pie. She is verrrryyyy dark with a pitch black nose. She won a Best Opposite award at the Spring Nationals earlier this year. Night Sky is also very sweet so I think it is safe to say the babies will all be sweeties. Both these ferrets have nice bone structure - Night Sky is a large hob, Indy is an average sized jill. If you are looking for a dark hob that is bound to be a sweetie, this group would be a good bet.

Sire: SH's Night Sky (dark sable)
entire litter: 5 jills; 2 hobs - dark sables, black sables
prices: $300 pet, $400 breeder
Peggy Sue is one of my very special little buddies. She is a great companion and is so much fun. She does a lot of talking, both to herself and to whomever cares to listen and her voice is so high, you can't help but laugh. Peggy Sue is bright, energetic, loves the toys and to climb. She is a short bodied jill and she usually has quite a bit of dense muscle mass. She is a dark sable and so is Night Sky so the babies will be dark to black sables. Night Sky is mellow and silly - a very nice individual to have around. I expect these babies to be sweet little treasures that are bound to bring a lot of smiles and a bit of fun chaos :) I can't wait to pick my baby from this litter.

Sire: SH's Shamen FireLight (dark/black sable)
entire litter: 2 jills; 2 hobs - dark sables, black sables
prices: $300 pet, $400 breeder
Aneka is called Aneka the Angel . . . because she is. This is Night Sky's mom. Aneka is big for a jill - she is quite muscular and has a nice solid bone frame. Shamen is Batty's son and looks a lot like him. He is short bodied and tends to keep a good amount of body mass. His head is broad, wide and short like Batty's with plenty of jowls. These babies are pretty large and growing at a nice rate. Aneka was a little over zealous when cleaning the babies when they were born so one boy has a docked tail and one back foot missing. I know it won't slow him down a bit. The two boys are pretty dark and the two girls look like they will be a little lighter but still fall into the dark/black sable category. These babies should be a good size, probably above average. They should be mellow like Aneka but with enough energy to be fun ferret partners.

Dam: HCF's FireSong of SH (the Princess) (black sable)
Sire: SH's Royal FireBolt (the Prince) (dark sable)
entire litter: 4 jills; 3 hobs - dark sables, black sables
prices: $325 pet, $450 breeder
The Royal Family has arrived! I am very excited about this litter. FireSong is from Bodie who is a very intelligent and athletic jill and Batty. The Prince is out of Lotus FireWorks. Wow, what beautiful ferrets! I'm not sure what to expect for their personalities though I suspect they will be loving, curious, determined and fairly busy. FireSong is taking excellent care of the babies so as they grow, we will see how they develop. These will be nice show propects as well as intelligent companions.

DragonFly is out of Lady Bug. I had been striving for a ferret that looked like Lady Bug and I finally got her with DragonFly. She is beautiful with a cute personality too. The best part is that she keeps a normal amount of weight, unlike her very plump Mom. I have been looking forward to combining the Lady Bug line with the Batty line so this litter is it. I know they will be great temperaments and I know they will be beautiful. What their eventual size will be, I'm not sure though I would expect it to be about average. Their bone structure should be very good and their body mass should be above average. They are light to medium sables and they sure are cute.

Sire: SH's CrossFire aka Batty (sable)
entire litter: 3 jills
prices: $325 pet, $450 breeder
Wow, I can not wait to see how these babies turn out. Batty is my hob with the most muscle mass and Fortune is my jill with the most. Both have gorgeous heads and very well structured bone frames with heavy bone density. What more could one ask for? I expect their dispositions to be like Fortune Kookie's litter from last year; playful, independent and even tempered.
