As you may recall, I was choosing between Baby 04, a colorful little girl, and baby 09, who I am hoping might go dark red as she ages.
The previous voting was overwhelmingly in favor of Baby 09: she gathered 62.5% of the votes (15 of 24) and won all but one forum (a second forum was tied). This was in line with my thinking.
The post-shed picts, however, toss it back into the air for me:

Baby 04 clearly has the better color…but the real kicker is that she might be a better match to lock in the unique dual-orange color scheme of her father Picasso…

…whereas Baby 09 is still a tossup on whether she will go deep red.
Tough call, indeed I have to decide tonight, as a customer wants whichever I pass on!
Thank you, as always, for reading. |

Is always a tough one guessing how they will turn out with aging. For me I always went with the appearance at the time and hoped it turned out well into end lol. Beautiful as usual

Against my original instincts, too. The post-shed photos and an outside/sunlight exam swayed me. |
