~ April is here and Spring has begun ~

I haven't blogged in a while. I think I'll start with the Conyers show. Remember I got Rose and Liberty? Well about two days before the show, I got Rose's son Liberty's Brother. He is a Siamese Sable and had won BOG in Spartanburg. So I entered this little buck in the show and in show A he won BOB in the Youth show. He then went on to win BIS!!! Irene won BOB.


All the babies are doing great! Splash had babies on the 28th. Looks like a Broken Choc. and a Broken Black with not much pattern. Peanut Butter's baby, is a Blue Otter doe! We are keeping her. Here are some pics.




New Chocolate Otter Holland Lop doe. We are excited to work with this color!

Picked up this Siamese Smoke Pearl buck at Conyers.


Chanelle's Chocolate doe.





Tort Holland Lop buck out of Willow. Keeping


Peanut Butter's Blue Otter doe. Keeping




They took pictures for the show A at Conyers. Here are some pics.

And here is the pic they took with S, Nathan, and the judge, Josh Humphries after BIS. Thank You, Josh!!



Did I mention I think Myrtle has 3 BUCKS? How disapointing.... Though I'm not certain. We're going to evaluate them.

~ 3/16/12 ~

We have babies! Rose had 5 babies Saturday which two of were peanuts. That was quite a suprise as I thought she was a BUD. Oh well, I guess not. She has two Siamese Sables and a Himmie. Mask had four babies Monday which two were dead and one was a peanut so she has one himmie left. I gave her Peanut Butter's baby and placed Peanut Butter.

J2 also had one peanut and another stuck kit. She is now On Hold. She's a really nice doe but I'm keeping some does out of my litters and so I decided to sell her. She's also really tiny.

CE3 had a litter of four that didn't live long after birth. Three may have been peanuts. Not certain though. One was a Max Factor...... My first. And it was alive at first but died shortly after birth.

Myrtle had 9 babies Wednesday night!!! Even though three were dead, and two peanuts (Maybe three??) we are extremly excited about it as JAG is the sire! And I was suprised Myrtle was able to carry so many as she is really small!

The weather is warming up! It was around 85 yesterday until the rain hit and it cooled down a bit for the evening. And then it rained last night. Today is suppose to be 80 and a chance of rain this afternoon.

I just started a Facebook page for our Rabbitry. Click here to come "Like" us!

We also have another litter. Peanut Butter had three babies but only one lived :(. The one that lived is a Blue Otter so thats exciting! She is in a climate controled area and is taking great care of the baby so I think it will be fine! We have four does coming due soon. Mask, Rose, J2, and CE3. We are hoping for some nice babies out of these Does!

Its suppose to be nice the next couple of days! Sunny and in the sixty's.

~ 3-6-12 ~

Everyone at the rabbitry right now are doing great! Here is an update on litters.

Jenelle "aka Jenny" has two Black bucks and a Black Otter doe. We are keeping the Black Otter doe and one of the Black bucks. The other black buck is available.

Emma has a Siamese Sable doe and two Himmie does. I am keeping the Siamese Sable doe. The Himmies are available. One is a BUD and the other is tiny.

Our Holland litter we are keeping for now. One of the Broken torts and the tort are does. The other broken is a buck.

Vixen's babies are too little to tell if their boys or girls but some have very cute heads :). Liberty and Chanelle's babies are great. One of Liberty's "himmies" is a Siamese Sable now.... Chanelle's blue passed away. I'm not sure what happened. I think it got away from the other babies and then got cold :(.

We also listed Edward and Emma to the For Sale page. You can see pictures of all the For Sale bunnies on my website. E-mail me if interested in any!

Thanks for reading!

~ Litters! ~

Well... we've had litters, good and bad. I'll start with the good litters.

Jacob X Liberty - 3/4/12 ~ 6 kits: Wow! I was surprised that with her being a first time mom to have six healthy kits. She has six himmies which was a shock since she was bred to Jacob our siamese sable buck and she is out of him.

Butterball X Chanelle - 3/4/12 ~ 4 Kits: She has a Broken Black and three Chocolates?? I'm really excited about this litter!

The bad litters.

Daphne and Tracy were both first time moms and had DOA's I think. They were all otter/martens :(. At least I know Frank is still producing :).

Mya had one kit that was stuck. We are going to try again. She is really small.

Irene still hasn't had babies. We can't tell if she's bred or not....
Well, I've got to go....
