not sure MM, all I know is that it has been shown recently in HHP. There is an article on MEssybeast about a generation of male torties, all fertile, I think they are up to the third generation now - they are peds though, can't remember if they have a lot of tortie or not.

I think it's unlikely with these two. I bet the chances of getting 2 male torties in one litter are very rare. I don't know the owner but my neighbour does. Even my neighbour wasn't convinced when I told him  :evillaugh:

Actually, you can get fertile male torties, as there are two ways to get a male tortie, one is normally sterile, one can reproduce. There is one being discussed on the US forum I use at the moment, he is a moggy but is being allowed to mate once to see if he is fertile or not.

Mark she is lovely,   you cant get Tortie boys can you ?,  mind you I must be behind the times cause I didnt think you could get ginger girls until Ruby Ruby Red Drawers arrived !

You can but they are extremely rare and they fire blanks too! (yes another piece of useless info from moi!)  :evillaugh:

Can't remember the numbers but Tortie boys are very rare and usually sterile as they are a hybrid. 1 in 100,000 or summatt! Very beautiful kitty regardless of gender, but don't be suprised if they get very fat and produce kittens before too long. The chances of Tortie brothers is -infint-estim (Oh butter, was try to do the lines through the word thingy!) is Against All Odds, I think I can hear something In The Air Tonight. :rofl:
