Adorable bunnies and doggies! I used to raise show rabbits also and would like to get into it again, except, where I live I don't believe there is much of a pet market for rabbits. Having to cull rabbits for no better reason than that no one else wants them takes all the fun out of the hobby for me, so I don't want to get into that again. I like rabbit meat but raising rabbits for meat is just not my thing.. .and if I did, it would not be from my show stock. I don't want to have to keep myself separated emotionally from my rabbits so I don't get too attached to them :/

Thank you! And I totally understand @Onyx mine are show and what I can not show is sold as pets... but this year I am hoping... MAYBE to cull out any pets who have not found homes by 6 months old for our consumption, or at least my husbands LOL! We will see.... Most people I know who raise french will cull any non show stock for consumption as that is how they keep the lines improving. I totally get why they do it but I am not sure I could ;) Because of course those pet quality ones are always the better personality and so darn easy to get attached to... Hmph!

Well ... I went with a friend to look at baby goats for HER barn and low and behold... I put a down payment down on two more babies! A full Alpine who will be wethered because I am not ready to have two pens and the smelly boys from what I'm told... and a little girl half Nubian half saanan! this Will make 4... not two. Oops...

May 3rd we welcomed Thelma and Olaf home! (At first I loved the names but now I am contemplating changing them as they really just don't fit them anymore).... They dislike the dog and love ALL people LOL. Have managed to escape once and they seem to be settling in nicely. Thelma is half Nubian and half Saanan and Olaf is full alpine.
