I'll be honest, when I first started looking at Hollands I actually fell in love with the looks of a smoke Pearl, or an Opal, Or even a Lilac based Frosty! I would look at a tort and think, ewww how ordinary. However it didn't take long putting our hands on a cute little tort before we realized there was more to it than ordinary. So while learning so much with our tort program I kind of fell out of love with any other color. I honestly even now feel like sable is almost becoming more of a boring trend than anything with substance. People seem to want one just to have one, more so than because it would be of any benefit to their breeding program. They are blinded by the color in a way. So this huge desire to have them, has made me annoyed by them. So when our cute little tort had a little sable baby, I wasn't nearly as excited as my daughter. In fact, I kind of ignored her. I loved her sweetness but that was about it. Well today I got them all out to check them over... and I think I can't ignore her any longer. She is actually looking quite pretty. She's still a tiny little thing with much maturing to do but so far she looks to be going in the right direction.
