This is kitten #1

(also, are the brown spots just feces or could it possibly indicate an infection? we tried cleaning it with a fragrance free baby wipe but it didn’t fully go away, should i be concerned?)

I’m terrible at discerning gender at this young age, but I do think you may have a couple of males in there. W Willowy is excellent at this! I hope she will chime in soon. In the meantime, those spots you tried to wipe off are probably just skin pigmentations that are nothing abnormal.

With six littles ones you’ve got your hands full. Sometimes it can take a few weeks for male scrotums to drop. I thought I had a female black cat for several weeks until his balls dropped and I had to change his name.

I’m sure others will chime in, but a couple more weeks will make a difference. Females usually have a slit very close to the anus, whereas the males have more space, no slit, and a ball sac.
