Dinner rabbits, Journal

[Mini Horses]

I really like Tappy

Got 5 does bred. Finally lifting, finally bucks willing. But only the once....wtf. They're on a further diet now...

DeVil×Chinchilla buck, Rex kits
Hops×Jet buck, chocolate carrier, Silver Fox kits
Opal×Rew, Rex kits
Raven's doe, tort×Bluey, finally got a fall off, mutt kits
Steely×Mallow, mutt kits

 

[secuono]

Tippy×Rew


Cruella×Trouble


How do you get them lined up? Gotta hold em still, then act fast!


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.

Jet × Lefty buck, chocolate carrier
Loving his fur and silvering.
Flat like dad, still small like dad....7.75 months old. Not much time for him to grow further, but can only hope. Hind isn't as hideous as his dad.

The chocolaye steel is listed.
The chocolate chinchilla will stay. I'm finally getting chocolates, and they're full of steel madness...

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.

I should of waited to post the buck until I had his sister's pics done. So, adding him here for comparison.

Jet × Lefty
Silver Fox
Chocolate doe. Great fur, silvering looks good, too. A good bit heavier. Needs depth.

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?

 

[secuono]

I forgot the freezers are full. Can't cull anything....ugh

Talk about a hard to get bred doe. 11mo and finally a litter! Ffs.
Cassy(Opal's doe) × Chinchilla buck & Mallow, the NZW. Any regular fur will be Mallow kits.
Two nests. One inside, one out. A nest sitter like her mom, like all Rex tend to be. But she was worse about it. Pulled some fur 2× before due, then a ton right on time. She chose the inside nest for kits and outside for her spoiled arse.
Hoping for a Rex kit to replace her, but also a mutt, just to prove to me he can do his bloody job! He was expensive!
