I so enjoyed looking at the pictures of all the litters of cute squirming kits. You have beautiful rabbits. I really like your lops. Love those long ears!

Well Show bred Zora today, twice she lifted... after about a week of putting her in to be bred.... I wasn't too crazy about him when I first got him. But he's looking better and has a great booty my Velveteens need. And he's an agressive breeder... probably the best one I have had in the Velveteen lops. Usually they give up after a few seconds.... palapated several does too. Am hopeful April is more fruitful than March....
Basal started sneezing, despite having spent $$$ on him I am thinking he just needs culled.... :hit really sucks, so far no one else is acting sick or off... and with Show and Nairobi I should get better widths.

All but 1 Polish & 2 Velveteen lop does have been exposed. Going to put the 2 pet does outside and start weaning the 2 Feb litters. 14D01493-38D0-4B18-A274-2BADF6A90DBA.jpegA479EAFD-F6B6-4740-B348-7EFD97B6BCB5.jpeg

4 does due this Thursday
Una is nesting!!!:love E2778393-1D76-41C0-B140-1FF7DD5DC698.jpeg
Polka-dot is lazin around... in Jan she had hers on the wire so hopeful she cares for them this time around. :fl A6F0AA4D-B757-4E3B-98BB-9095044A6947.jpeg
Pretty sure NAI did not settle... They usually don't just plop in their box like this but we'll see:rolleyes:09E469DC-4353-4D2D-994D-7E81EAE2509E.jpeg
Opa is due also, a chocolate mini rex. But she isn't nesting either... am starting to suspect our new MR buck Storm is Shooting blanks... he did breed two other does this morning.... so we'll see. Does are finally more willing...
am getting frustrated with the rabbits... have lost too many and no one is settling... New VL Basal was given a round of antibiotics. .. so hopeful he is better. And will be trying to get him to breed this week....

Looks like if John wants to show any jr mini rex we will be buying them... as Una crushed her litter overnight... :tongue raising rabbits sure sucks at times.
