PERSONALITIES, LIFE EXPECTANCY, COLORS, & MARKINGS

Personality, life expectancy, color and markings cannot be predicted and are not guaranteed. Photos are taken at early ages and updated periodically. Colorations and markings often change during the quilling process. Personalities and attitudes can develop and change based on environment, temperature, and handling habits. Life expectancy is at best an educated guess derived from various statistics provided by veterinarians, owners, breeders, and rescues.
