Pesonally I just cant see it being overgrooming. The mother must be something special to keep them all the same
far more likely IMHO is the father was not all MC or was an MC but had small (or very small) ears and thats why they are as in the pic.

Welcome Kaasutii!
Thanks for posting the snaps. Your kittens are gorgeous, they look like big healthy lads.
If they come with paperwork then yes they should be full Maine Coons and apart from the ears they look 100% Maine Coon to me.
The breeder should give you/your mum a transfer of ownership slip when you pick them up.
Will look forward to seeing more pictures as they get older. Enjoy your new babies :rofl:
Without boring everyone who has heard this particular rant from me before - just because they've got a "pedigree certificate" doesn't make them "pedigree". Anyone can produce a pedigree. Go on to Pawpeds and pick some random MC names, put them into Breeder Assist and Hey-Presto! You've got a pedigree! The original ad does not say these kittens are registered? If they are not registered with the GCCF, Felis Britannica (FIFe) or TICA then they are not pedigree. To be able to register the kittens both parents must be on the "Active Register" - meaning their original breeder sold them with permission to breed from them, i.e. not as Pets. As long as you get the transfer slip (the legal piece of registration paperwork that allows you to legally change the kitten from being owned by the breeder to being owned by yourself) then everything is above board. If not you just bought an expensive moggie :sad2:
The link took me to this ad:
Pedigree maine coon kittens for sale. We have a litter of 5 Pedigree Maine Coon kittens available to go to their new homes soon. The litter comprises a Brown Classic Tabby male, a Brown and White Classic Tabby male, a Brown and White Mackerel Tabby male, a Brown Tortie female, and a Brown and White Tortie female. They have been raised in our family home and are very friendly and sociable. Please note that the selling price of £200 reflects that their mother has been over attentive in grooming/preening them resulting in stunted ear tip growth. They can be viewed at any time, along with both parents. They are litter trained, and have been treated with flea spray, and wormed. They will be vet checked and vaccinated before leaving, and will go with a full 5 generation Pedigree Certificate, vet record card, and 4 weeks free insurance. Photos available on request.
I can't see any mention of TICA?
Thats because if you read my reply the link the person put up was not from the website i saw the advert on :) im not mentioning website but it does state age of kittens age when ready to leave mother n father can be seen registered TICA health checks yes and so forth :)
