Here I am writing long after due!! LOL Between working and daily stuff I've finally made the time to write!! To get everyone up to date again our last show was excellant !! We had good placings with both our Hollands & Ashley's Polish!!Krinkle got his very first leg!! Very exciting since we determined he needed a little more developement to take that Best Opposite!!Tinkerbell got her first leg as well!! On the one show table our girls placed 1st,2nd and 3rd how exciting is that!! Now I realize we definately are headed in the right direction with our foundation lines.Thankyou to all of you who made them availible to us!! We also sold some bunnies that weekend,REW babies went to M&M's & Petit Lapin Rabbitries in Manitoba.Sean from Xanadu also bought a REW Holland doe to start off his Holland project.I should also add that our infamous Lil' Houdini did well on the tables, even though the " sex change fairy" came to visit,LOL what a shocker he turned out to be a she!! Houdini is now living at M&M's in Winnipeg,may she carry on her excellant lines in her babies!! We have had a couple of litters born as well!! Oreo and Bear had a litter of nine babies!! Two babies passed :( but we had a choice of seven babies to choose from for showing,we kept back a little broken tort and a solid black.Nelly and Rosco had two wee babies, lit tort girl developed a eye infection shortly after her eyes opened so she'll be kept or possibly sold for breeding.Her litter mate will be shown in August,a beautiful black baby!! ( I do have a weakness for blacks!!) Our new girlie Creator's Skywishes has three beautiful babies from Bear,I just love all three!! Avalon has on remaining baby out of Krackle who is a keeper!! Cocoa has two sweet babies too!! A few does are due in the next couple days,I can't wait LOL. I'm anxiously waiting the arrival of a new herd buck as well!! I can't thank Donna enough for this new addition,Zemu 2 is the last of the S&S Elliott babies.Bear's dam Half Ear's sire was Magnum& Zemu's grandsire was also Magnum,so the tight lines are an added bonus here to us!! We hope he travels well from Washington Convention,as he has not travelled before.*fingers crossed* Well that's about all for now,I have a bit of work to do today and we are finally getting summer!! Tata for now :0
Hello,it has been a while since I've written here!! Right in between shows I may ad!! We did well at our last show in February,came home with three legs! Our home bred boy,Krackle got his first leg & Avalon who was bred by M&M's got two legs.We placed well with the other Hollands we brought as well.Ashley was that close to getting a leg with her bucky Tiger,there weren't enough entered again :( However,she did home home with a beautiful ribbon for Best Opposite!! On with other news,babies are growing up fast....going to their new homes.I'm getting tight on cage space so I'll have to think about ordering up another set of stackers :0 How quickly we've jumped up to 18 cages,and that's just a start....one more set for now :)' Our next show is in just 22 days...wow where has the time flown??? We should have some new litters before then,just days before. In the next couple days I'll be thinking about tattooing the juniors,at least there are only three babies to do.Wow it felt like a bunny tattoo-athon in February!! Well I'm off to putter about again,tata for now!!
We took our sweet girl Lily to get checked out today,my suspicions were confirmed by Richard & Steve.I've been trying to breed Lily since I bought her in September,she had two false pregnancies and a miss.I was concerned what could possibly be wrong here.She is a healthy girl,but just no luck in breeding.An ultrasound confirmed a retained kit on one horn :( My options were to put her to sleep or have her spayed.I just couldn't put this sweet little girl down,gosh she loved to cuddle and have her nose rubbed.Gosh,I think I have to toughen up a bit if I'm going to breed.The tears are streaming down my face right now.I'm happy that a girl that works at the clinic offered to take her,she really wanted April!! Soon as she picked Lily up and held her she melted Tony said.I'll miss yah sweet girl,enjoy your new home and bunny friend.
