When ur trying to fill up the pig pool and Stewart doesn't wanna wait...

A breed that's been on my bucket list for 3 years now before they were recognized, happen to be at the last show I was at so I had to scoop them up. 😆
Welcome Lily and Jetta, both junior dwarf papillon does. I will be bringing up a buck this fall for them.
They are definitely a unique breed, similar to english spots in markings but small size. I have a feeling they are going to be a very hard breed to work with. They have a very firey personality like a tan, always need engagement and enrichment. I do love having something in barn that is more active and playful, they are fun to watch.

07/28/2024

Will be going through a whole bunch of litters next few days and start picking growouts. Currently sitting at 67 babies. 😆For this I have run out of cage space lol. So will be a few looking to move on, retirement does, breeding, show potential and pets. I will be attending the SARBA show mid August and can transport. This doesn't include the 6 litters due beginning of August, mini rex, silver fox and english spot. I also plan on going to the Prince George show so will have more available maybe by then. See how the younger litters look..

07/21/2024

Another hot day on the farm looks like some relief is coming though

07/06/2024

Few litters on ground at moment including this beautiful litter of tri/brindle and 1 broken black buck lol, couple does due during the heatwave this upcoming week, bred 6 more does before it got hot including my spot, hopefully spot babies this time 🤞

07/06/2024

Moved the kunes..and birds to new area last night to get cleaned up, they do a great job and don't destroy the ground ❤️

07/04/2024

Well the unfortunate part to farm life, something made a tiny hole under a tractor and took out all my calico bantam cochin pullets for next year. Left me with 2 roos 😑

07/03/2024

Couple black himalayan bucks looking for pet 🏠s. Rarer small, very calm good with kids

06/26/2024

Another show in the books, WA state convention in Cashmere, WA, took my judges test, showed some buns and bought some new ones. Around a 1000 rabbit entered. Always a pleasure to meet everyone again old and new. :)

Results:

All 3 open shows 1st place black silver fox jr buck, his brother was bouncing around 2nd and 4th place there

2 1st place and 1 mid pack place black silver fox jr doe

The senior mini rex does were middle of classes against some stiff competition

Highlight was HD's Catapult fresh off of a new coat getting 2nd place behind a gorgeous buck that ended up taking best in show, then 2nd show Cat took 1st of class then a BOSG, 3rd show placed 5th. I am very happy with the placements against some very competitive mini rex 😍

06/12/2024

Yup. Feels like it.

05/24/2024

Well we picked up our broilers on sat all 20 of them, been a couple years since ive had broilers. After hearing about the issues with them because of poor genetic breeding this year etc due to avian flu going through flocks; I was hesitant about getting them but had already preordered in December so didnt want to just back out last minute. It was a risk. Sure enough on pickup noticed immediately a few listless and struggling chicks. Gave them vitamins immediately all perked up. Then I came to realize a few days later these chicks are what say, less brighter then previous broilers ive had. Ive lost a couple literly standing in there little waterer which you would think is impossible. And these chicks just arent as active as previous years, its very unfortunate. Definitely some health things going on too, so they are away from my other birds. Will try our best to get some into the freezer, see how the weeks go by.
In the broody world we gave a bunch of fresh bantam cochin chicks to some of the 12 broodys around here and 3 have taken on some of the chicks, very happy. These chicks were bought eggs mix of black, blue, chocolate and mauve mottled so curious what markings will look like as they feather out ❤️

Some silver fox growouts 🥰

Sad day at the farm, we lost our pregnant kune kune gilt Daisy. She was such a sweet girl she loved her scratches and of course her fav food, bananas. She will be missed 💔 I will be looking for another female kune kune to keep my other company if anyone is se.lling in the future. 😥

05/08/2024

Finished downsizing last couple weeks, now the cleanup begins into summer. Daisy our kune kune gilt shes due sometime soon, slowly getting bigger by the day. I have one more large batch of chicks due tomorrow which will post list after hatch. Next couple hatches are my keepers for next year including a new line of turkeys as mine is getting a little too closely bred. I will still be offering hatching eggs, they will just be posted to my page, bcm and wheaten ameraucana have slowed right down now. I also got my first pekin egg of the year yesterday so guessing they will be laying well shortly.
Rabbits I have been putting rabbits outside last couple weeks with the nice warm weather, breeding most of the does again this weekend, after getting dewormed and such for Spring. Rosies 6 himis are doing well. I will have some silver fox juniors ready this weekend too for meat programs.
I wasnt overly happy with this late winters mini rex litters so didn't keep much, so be a small show team this summer. I will be using HD's Timebomb in these next breedings as he is 8 months old now, he is out of Ivy lines so will see what he throws. Also my tri carriers are old enough so should be some more tri in these litters 🥰

Finally have a litter of himis took almost a year 🥰

Tomorrow bunch of these guys will be there ❤️

So apparently breeding 11 does equals 11 positive for babies results 😆 Hopefully the does do well, at least theres lots of moms I can foster to if need be..

Nice to see a proven doe doing her job lol Been up and down in luck with litters had 1/4 have litter in box this last batch and 2/6 the batch before, this one is 3 does, 2 being proven and other being a himi on her second try, crossing fingers 🤞
