Dust Baths
« on: August 27, 2010, 04:41:56 AM »

I find that my pink white always looks *dirtier* than my other chin colors, even when they get dust baths at the same time, wondering if others find that as well.  Just out of curiosity.

I do not have a pink white but I do have a mosaic and she always before, after and during a dust bath looks whiter than ever...Her tail has a touch of gray and she looks like she has a goatee (SP?) that is gray but that is her color. Hmmm..will be ineteresting to see what others say! ::silly:: ::shrug::

That is what I mean by "dirty" is greasy looking.  I have 2 mosiacs and I don't think they get that way that fast, maybe some chins like people are oilier???  I just wondered what other thought.  Thanks!!
