    When do MC's get their adult coat

    I never noticed the changes in Bruces coat but with Merl I suppose because of showing you would find him having more "differences",he would go between dull,greasy to flowing,exactly like a teenager going through the spotty stage,he was four before it settled into its lovely flowing silk & remained like it without any noticable changes,especially with the tail,the super brush he had as a youngster disappeared for a couple of years & seemed to reappear with his 4th birthday & retirement from the show scene.He also is the only one ever I got shocks off of,still can on occasions. I can't say though that I have noticed radical change in the main texture of the coats as they age,they are all lovely & soft but Welly & Merl are extra silky with theirs,Shims & Pansy are just,soft...,Bruce is soft but with a coarser feel to the red colour & little China RIP used to feel more like a velvet cotton wool but most noticable with her being blue was as she aged she lost all her classic pattern.People at shows used to be surprised at the textures of MC's,how soft they are & when they have touched Shims & then Welly they have also commented on the different feel of them both,don't know if it ties into the genetics of the different colours.
