DNA Results for Ceilidh

Ok.. I called the lab and we will have the DNA results for Ceilidh in about 4 hours (Or later this afternoon). Ok people, get your final guess in now!!

I am going to refrain from guessing as I am the one that spends the most time with this little cutie.

Here are some photos to help you form your own opinion. Remember, these photos contain Pico, a DNA male. (and sorry about the cruddy photos. The kids wanted to play this AM and not pose!)

Ceilidh's and Pico's Head Shot

Ceilidh - 8.5 weeks, 1080g

I would guess...male. I can't wait to hear the DNA results! Either way, Ceilidh is a beautiful baby!

Hey Deb, does your digicam have a macro focus or manual focus mode?

That first pic would have been a great "source pic" if the cam wasn't focused on the cage behind the birds.

((BTW, I'm doing a sketch of that "first perch" pic ya posted the other day. ))

Yes, and it was on Macro and I was in manual focus, but trying to get two wiggly babies to hold still was a task in itself. I took 40 shots and that was the best.

Wow! Drawing baby Ceilidh?! Fantastic!

Any chance of sending it to the proud mama when it's finished? I'll pay, of course :-).
