Well, no babies :barnie How two different does bred to two different bucks could both come back not pregnant within a week of each other is beyond me! I've never had that happen before :\
So because it's a fun outing for both my husband and myself, we went to the auction and there were the cutest little babies there :love One of them was clearly injured, so we rescued it. Turns out it's a little girl. Her eye looks like it got badly scratched and she's obviously blind in that eye now. We cleaned it out with a saline rinse and everything else seems okay with her, so she's my little rescue baby now. I'll get pictures tomorrow.

Late on the pics, but here they are with the exception of my rescue since she's living in a different part of the house and I was being lazy :hide

Here's the little rescue bun. The more graphic picture of her eye is attached for those of you interested to see what it looks like. It actually looks tons better today - no goop and the swelling is starting to go down. Yay!

Cute Bunnies! Hope the eye continues to get better.
Me too. I was sure I was going to have to take her to the vet when I first saw it, but it's doing so well now! I'm prepared to take her if there's a sudden turn for the worst, but for now it definitely seems to be healing :fl

Well, the rescue bun has been named Fly and we're going to keep her. She's a real cutie :love
Finally got some baby buns born! Yay! :celebrate
Zap had at least 7 babies. (There are 7 or 8, but I have a policy of not messing with them too much for the first day or two, so I'll know for sure later!)
I also had Midnight bred to an adorable little black otter dwarf, so she'll be due with lots of cuteness next month. I have one other potential litter, but since I've had the worst luck ever this winter, I'm not going to count my buns before they're out of the oven! lol
I'll get pics tomorrow or Monday :p
