4 weekers

Coraline - Blue Tort Doe

Garth - Blue Tort Buck (?)

Brython - Blue buck

that's all for now, just baby pictures :)

Woolies, Woolies, Woolies

All my Woolie does are bred or on a litter, at least I hope the ones I bred took anyway. Brython, Coraline and Nameless are all looking really fantastic. They have such big heads, even the boyfriends family who knows relatively nothing about rabbits or what they are supposed to look like for showing purposes commented on how big and blocky their heads are. I am really excited about this litter. I have been taking them out and posing them up every day now as they have hit the 3 week old mark.

I'm crossing my fingers Love Potion took, I bred her to my Non-Extension Himi buck, the two are really compatible. I am so bad at palpating...I just can't tell if she is bred or not. I bred Autumn to Quinn, because no other buck could seem to get the job done. It will be a brood cross, any animal out of the pairing is probably going to be kept for brood purposes most likely. They compliment each other well, but Autumn is right at max senior weight, and Quinn is over. Quinn really has the HQ Autumn lacked though, so I am really excited about that, I can at least get some nice babies to cross back to Dayka to inject that full HQ into the line. The heads on these guys should be massive as well, they both have great bone and awesome heads. not to mention fantastic wool.

Time will tell if I will have more Wooly babies in the nest box, I'm crossing my fingers that I do. Today rained...so the photo shoot I had planned is not going to happen. I will have tons of pictures of everyone once the weather decides to cooperate.

The new Polish buck

Showing off his cute bum :P

TCH's Mica - Broken Black Sr. Buck

We came home from the show this weekend with a new addition to the herd. Two of my Mini Rex left for new homes, so we had some space available for a new rabbit. I really wanted to bring home another Wooly doe to add to my brood string, but there was a severe lack of Wooly breeders at the show this year. Instead, my boyfriend mingled with a group of Polish breeders, and we came home with this little guy. He was given to use to boost the popularity of the Polish and try to get more breeders in the area interested in the breed. I love the short, cobby body type of the breed, and also the size. They barely take up any room or feed, which is nice!

We have been having some issues with his behavior lately, but I am hoping it clears up. He just hit 6 months of age, he may be going through his manly phase and on top of the stress from moving is being an absolute kill joy. He's got great type and an attractive pattern. His head/ear needs some work, but overall I am pleased. The Polish are mainly the boyfriends project, but I am helping him out as he is so new to rabbits. I think he has a great little buck to start off with, now we just need to find him a doe.
