Incognito is a black buck we sent to Jentle's Rabbitry. He was supposed to go to Saskatchewan but the person decided to just get 4 since she was having to have them transported instead of flying them in. But she got mom!
Anyway, Incognito was the pick of litter, and a really promising black buck(Jersey wooly). He has been winning all over Ontario and I believe the US as well. He took Best of Breed this weekend! And is only 4 months old!
Jen is taking him to Convention, and we can not wait to hear how he does!
BTW- anyone interested in Jerseys- 4 left! Grand Champion RH's Tonka, Leapin' Mara(smoke pearl 1 GC leg/REG),
And 2 adorable pet bucks that would make terrific pets for families. Especially the one buck, he is SO gentle and calm. He was the one we packed around as a tiny baby as he was the only surviving baby out of Foxy Lady's last litter(ever), and he is a sweetheart!
Everything is going well with litters, and babies in the Mini lops. The last Dwarf hotots here are:
The trio going to Wally- Sprite, Isis and Stairway
2 does that are still available
1 pet buck that is pending, they should be coming on Sunday to pick up.
And one doe that is also pending(with a deposit) to a new show and possible breeding home in Victoria!
Then Cowboy, Panache, the tort jr buck, Chantilly Lace and her baby buck, and the tort doe go live with Patti and family in 150 mile house on July 12th.
After that it will just be Tonka, Mara, and the 2 pet bucks. I am hoping to have homes for those 4 before then too, as we are only working on the Mini lops now.
I think we've worked all the different breeds well out of our system now for a few years! Although there are a bunch of breeders that have 5-6 breeds around here. I have no idea how they manage that one. I found with 3 breeds one of the breeds always got short changed for figuring out the breeding and showing etc(you always had more selection in one breed to show then the other because you didn't have enough cage space to keep too many of each breed!
We still have the 2 stackers of Andrea's available, and 2-4 hole carriers. Plus the 2 dwarf hotot jr does. We will take the 3 Dwarf hotots to Wally sometime in July the next time we are up that way.
The rest of the animals are all fine. We've been doing some major training with the dogs, and are seeing a somewhat difference with Luke.
He went to the farm with us last night to see if the tires for the truck were at the farm yet, and also a pet person came to look at the dwarf hotot buck. He barked at them as they got out of their vehicle ( Golden Retriever just not your normal happy go lucky one sigh!), anyway he barked but I told them he was friendly and just an idiot(lol). They tried to pet him but he would scoot his tail behind his bum and take off. Then he would approach them and if they ignored him he would get closer. The minute they tried to get close to him he was off running.
He was like that at 3 months old. The day we brought him home from the breeders(litter of 9, and he was the only one like that) but the breeder recommended him to us(probably figured we would be the only ones that could handle him this long lol). anyway the day he came from the breeders at 3 months old, we took him to Shar Kare where I used to work to show him off and he ran behind us and away from everyone. Despite all the socializing he gets going to the dog park, walks, in stores etc he still has never overcome this fear. Maybe someone with ideas can post comments! That would be wonderful!! : )
