How are the Confetti kitties going for you?

[Eleanor8 Resident]

On July 16th 2015 Callie introduced the Confetti cats to us (and the madness began).

So, Happy Birthday Confettis!

Probably a reasonable time to post an update on my confetti figures.

Up to now 934 boxes produced.

Mainly breeding offspring of my cats rather than new vendor cats (tried that with three new pairs at the time the Valentine cats were released - their results were not good). I have bought a few colours but last purchase was some considerable time ago.

Of the 934 boxes 745 were genesis or normal furs

105 were coloured confettis (34 Appleberry, 12 Blueberry, 9 Cherryberry, 11 Grapeberry, 3 Lemonberry, 12 Orangeberry, 10 Pinkberry, 12 Plumberry and 2 Tealberry) and 84 were cocoberries.

That gives a percentage total confettis born of 20%

The percentage of coloured confettis is 11% but that figure is driven by the number of coloured confetti pairs now (most of them are both colours, a few are a colour with a Cocoberry with one coloured parent mate, and just a few are both cocoberries).

I can't really say that I am seeing a general improvement in number of confetti offspring as I move down the generations. Their results are still very random.

I've been keeping weekly bar chart figures for about the last ten weeks, about 8 weeks ago I had a stunning week - 18 boxes, 10 of which were confettis, and of the 10, 8 were colours. It was such a change in normal figures that I wondered if they had tweaked the possibility of getting the fur to pass. But then it was back to normal the week after, so guess it was just random. This weeks figures are 19 genesis boxes and 4 confettis.

I'm not getting the sizes I was lucky enough to get in the early months - but maybe I just used up my luck early on - and I did get another mega about 3 months ago. But I can hardly complain they have made a mega Orangeberry, Blueberry, two Appleberries and four Cocoberries.

I've opened some more boxes recently so guess I'm continuing with them.
