Upcoming Shows

April 29, 2010
I am getting ready to show rabbits for the first time in over ten years! This weekend I have a show in Monroe, then next weekend there is a big Netherland Dwarf specialty in Moses Lake. I am taking the same 3 rabbits to both shows, so we will see how they do. I really want to breed my black doe, Minnie, so depending on how she does these might be the only times she gets to show off.

I'm so glad I have such great resources in the rabbit world. My little doe, Katniss, was having a severe identity crisis, as I was referring to her as a Siamese Smoke Pearl. After closer inspection of her eye color and her markings, I asked around and was informed that she's actually a Sable Point! SO glad I figured that one out before I took her to a show.

Looking forward to updating some show results soon.

New Litter

April 8, 2010
Elle had her litter yesterday. A day past due, but she did a great job! Her nest is beautiful; I think she pulled every bit of fur from her belly. The little looks strong and warm. There are 2 black otters and 2 blue otters, but one of the blues is a little peanut. Still, after months of trying to get healthy litters born, we've got a nice, full nursery and I'm excited.

Rein's litter is 2 weeks old today. They are looking just precious. I'm wondering about the color of the BUD. I originally t...

A Hectic Week

April 4, 2010
I don't know what I was thinking. I bred a doe, due to kindle on Tuesday, and I am getting married Friday. I have enough to worry about this week. At least I've heard she's a good mama. That will help a lot. The doe, Elle, seemed preggers enough when I palpated her. I was excited to get any conformation at all. In past attempts to palpate I have been completely frustrated. I'll tell you, it's wonderful to be able to know that something should be happening.

There are some spring shows coming u...
