I just noticed a nice surprise on Irina's site: a short tribute to "Mandarin":
http://www.piki-kvik.ru/stati.htm
You can see his photos and read his story there. The text is in Russian, so maybe it helps if I write a few lines here, too... :o)
Mandarin Cocktail at Brentwood Hotel (red-white texel) was born in 2005, and went to Irina Biletskaya (Piki Kvik caviary). He was a very promising baby, and I think we had a good eye for that: he had a great show carreer in Russia. Also, he produced several nice babies, his children and grand-children live in many caviaries.
His line (parents: Berlusconi at Brentwood Hotel - Chrissie von Piccolinos) is what I frequently use in my caviary: Berlusconi has had a great influence, and Mandarin's full sister (from a later litter), Xtra Piccolino at Brentwood Hotel still produces excellent offspring.
One of her youngest sons, Brother Grimm at Brentwood Hotel (father: Berlin vom Hölkenbusch) has just left to Irina to follow the steps of his uncle Mandarin after producing some very interesting litters here.
I am very greatful to Irina for taking such a good care of Mandarin, and promoting him so successfully. I wish her all the best with Grimm!
