Fair weather rabbits

In the past couple of weeks, I've had more Jersey babies born then any other time since last October. We've both decided the jerseys are "Fair Weather rabbits". The mini lops bred all fall, all winter, and now all spring. The Jerseys have been a whole other story!!

We've been sick this week, with bad colds so haven't been on the computer or writing blogs. We are feeling much more human now, so thought I should write a blog!

Leapin Maggie Mae X GC Jentle's Hero have 3 kits left- not sure if blues or smoke pearls.

Leapin' Panache X GC Jentle's Hero- 2 kits- blues

Leapin' Ms Sierra X Leapin' Rock N Roll- 4 kits- 1 tort, and 3 sable points and blue points

Schultz's Secret Weapon X Leapin' Munchkin- 2 kits- dark sable point and a smoke pearl we think? They keep changing!

I've been trying since last October for Secret Weapon and Maggie to have litters. Maggie had 2 dead litters in the box, in a row, and she has the live litter now(she was proven before) so it was just winter!

We had a new Champagne litter today as well, 2 HUGE babies. Doing great. About 3/4's the size of our hands! They are big babies! Still waiting on the other Champagne to kindle.

We will do some more breedings in the next week, and I will hopefully find something interesting to write about : )

The 5 babies from Fantasy X Cowboy are doing great. I will see about getting some pics this weekend. 3 of the 5 are looking really nice with great bodies!

The sable point buck from Foxy Lady and Cowboy is doing fine as well, he is fostered to a mini lop(Rosalind). Its looks so funny this tiny Jersey against these huge mini lops who are just a week older then him, but are 3 times bigger then him!

We did a whole bunch of new pictures last weekend, but haven't felt up to doing website updates.. We will hopefully start working on them tomorrow.

Our dad is moving from up Island back down here, to travel with his job instead of living at his job(and towing the trailer) so we will be busy this next week organizing him, and helping him move everything back down this way.
