this is what a piebald gene carrier belly looks like

Abbie doesn't have that, and I don't know about the father. But, would there be anything we need to worry about if they do have it?

OH GOSH NO it just might explain the white marking on the back (which Ive never seen before) you may want to ask the stud owner to check the daddys belly. If these kids have the speckles on their belly they carry the piebald gene. A Particolor yorkie is a piebald gene and they can produce mostly white and tan yorkies not the traditional black and tan, A pie bald gene carrier can mark a litter or has a very slight chance if bred to another piebald gene to produce a particolor. BUt breeding a true parti to a standard yorkie can produce a particolor and black and tan litter mix.

Abbie isn't full black and tan... but she doesn't have that belly stuff. I will ask about the daddy. We took them (mommy and babies) to the vet to make sure she was okay. After that we went by the ups store and weighed them. The scale is suppose to be accurate, but i dunno. They were a week early too. So that may be a reason also. They are so sweet. It is amazing how the mother comes out in my baby. I was so shocked.... I am having problems figuring out how much to sell them for and how to go about doing it. Where to run the ads... and such. I want to make sure they go to good homes. I know one is but the other two ... I just want to know they will be taken care of... ya know. Any Ideas? And How much do you guys think they should run?

I'm not sure about the prices but I'm sure some of the breeders on here could help you out with that. I know some factors are pedigree and I believe also your location but they would know better than I. As for where to advertise them at, I may be biased but there is no better place then right here on YT. Here you know we are ALL Yorkie lovers plus a YT member knows where to come with questions and advice on raising a new pup so there is no better place than here. We all support each other in the raising and taking care of our little ones. We also LOVE to share pics so you'd still get to see your babies grow and hear all about their adventures. Just my opinion

Good luck in placing them in their forever homes eventually, but in the meantime enjoy those little sweeties. Congrats again!!
