Some pictures for the blog







Again, I really don't have much to blog about. We did get a few pics late last week and this weekend of some more juniors, we have about 1/2 the juniors on our website now.. Still have that many again to get pics of when they are more out of ganglies! : ) We have 29 junior holes, 25 senior doe holes, and 8 senior buck holes for a total of 62... This will be much nicer for us, as we can spend more time with the rabbits instead of constantly cleaning, hauling in feed, hay, shavings, etc etc. We still plan to have 2-5 litters each month. Although we don't have any litters planned for August. We are giving all the girls a good break. We will start breeding mostly first timers again in September.

I think we are planning to breed:
Ocean Pearl X Brayden
Audrey X Black Jack
Heather Rose X Turtle
Butterball X ?
Black Beauty X Next Best Thing(borrowing him from Amanda until mid August as of the 30th of this month, thanks Amanda! :)
And maybe a few more.. Then we will start breeding some more does in October etc. Olive, Penny, Milky Way, the new Velotta doe will all be bred later this fall plus a bunch more that I am currently forgetting! : )

Babies are all fine. We haven't figured out colors or sexes yet(maybe a week old now) but all 28 are doing great. We had 30 but Penny lost her 2(both broken lilacs) we are debating about how to breed her too next.

The pics are the new calico long haired cat- "Karina", Bear's 2 kittens and Bear herself. We couldn't afford with the 6 vet bills between Harley and Luke($1200) to get Bear fixed and thought we would be safe a little longer(this was this spring/early summer) as she never went into heat(or so we thought.. Anyway she had 2 kittens. We have been calling around to find out the cost for her and the 2 kittens.

And then a pic of the decks we have been staining!
