Rudy×Mallow & Trouble
There's rex furred kits, so leaning towards litter sired by Trouble and not Mallow.

Tappy×Cast & Rew
Since both are Rex and Rew has sired lilac, blue, choc, I can't narrow down if Cast sired any or not. But since it was his first fall off, highly unlikely to be his. Not seeing any agouti, either.

Hops kits.
🫠 ugh. Man, do I hate ugly rabbits...
Good fur on this litter. 6th generation purebred Silver Fox.
But some 💩 shapes...
Black is listed.
keeping both of the brokens, buck and doe. Sire Tar is gone, I need a replacement broken SF, but doe looks better, not great, but wtf.
Paired momma Hops with the Jet buck that carries chocolate. His sire was fugly Lefty, so, kits may end up even more hideous than these. But I'm hoping his mom Jet's genetics will pull through instead! 🤞
The broken doe is heaviest, with the broken buck and the solid black doe being 2nd, but equal to each other.

Going over keepers....
I hate this so much...why is this so bloody difficult?

Sky×Rew, mutt, rew buck, grew best.
VS
Tappy×G, rew buck, slower than above, but good shape.

Younger bad shape has much better growth-
8wks, 4.36 vs 4.15.
10wks, 5.85 vs 5.01.

Coral×Rew, black doe, grew slow, meh shape. Listed.

Keeping both bucks...I guess removing one is better than none...


Also, holy 💩! Don't look at the website.
I have 3 Silver Fox and a slew of Rex!!! 😭
What even is happening?



Anyone who thinks breeding rabbits is easy should read this thread from start to current. 🫠



Added Mr Rew and....
Ugh.
So, youngest two will stay, Rew has to be listed....

Edit

Another to compare.
Bluey.
But I need kits out of him before culling. To have a separate line of Rex.
What Rex doe is available to pair with him....Coral? Cruella?
