Loving this picture with all 4 colours in one nest. Mostly because it makes easy work when keeping track of fosters 😉

Finally got around to tattooing the February babies. I always appreciate a rabbit that just sits calmly while the buzzing tattoo goes into its ear. This boy was an utter gentleman 🎩 and I can't wait to watch him mature. I havent been this excited about a buck since his great uncle in 2017 🥰

Please let there be a show this year 🤞🏻🙏🏻🤞🏻 I'd love to see these sisters on the table.

This boy 💙 for the first time in a long while I feel like im moving in the right direction.

There ain't nothing quite like a peeping Tom to ruin the romance 🤣

Harlequins are 9 weeks old this weekend. Pretty happy with how these two little does are shaping up, especially the size of the lilac. But what I wouldnt give for one of them to magically become a buck 😅🧚‍♀️🙏

Daycare seems to be getting a little crowded 🥰

Glad to see the empty holes aren't going to waste. Tubbington makes for a pretty ugly rabbit though 🤣

02/06/2020

The oldest littles are out and about 🥰 which means they should all start venturing out in the next 2-3 days.

What big ears you have 🐰

27/05/2020

Well hello there little friends, I see it is time to turn your nest box over so you can get back to your siblings.

6 weeks today for the older Blancs, and they are still *barely* on track to hit 5lbs live weight at 10 weeks.... even with them digging and wasting ALL of the feed. Praying they can keep up the good growth 🙏 although I'm gonna need to find a bigger bucket for taking weights

Have I mentioned how excited I am to have a couple of these in the barn?

Blanc de Hotot rabbit - Critically Endangered: The Blanc de Hotot is a large white rabbit with black bands around each eye. The breed is known for its lustrous fur, an abundance of guard hairs that gives the fur a frosty white sheen, and the striking black eye bands, which should not be over an eighth of an inch wide according to ARBA and not over 5mm in most European standards. The Blanc de Hotot is a large rabbit with bucks weighing 8 to 10 pounds and mature does 9 to 11 pounds. They are an active, hardy breed and are easily raised in all wire cages. They are fairly good mothers, have good-size litters, and the young grow rather fast. Learn more here: http://bit.ly/BlancDeHotot

We are providing a safe and beautiful platform for breeders and owners to buy/sell, connect, learn, make friends, and more without having to worry about ARAs and facebook's no animal rules. We shouldn't have to rely on facebook and what it supports, the rabbit and cavy community needs to stick together and support what we love.

Well, yesterday I had a nice looking rabbit... now I have a nice full nestbox 🤷‍♀️

11/05/2019

I would like to thank you all for attending our morning meeting

09/05/2019

V***n is doing a fantastic job of taking care of all the babies. This is one of her foster kits, and I'm liking the clarity on this little one too. 💙

08/05/2019

Clarity of markings is one thing I've been trying to improve in my herd. This little one on the right gives me hope we are moving in the right direction, atleast for clarity.

07/05/2019

Ain't nothin sweeter than a sleeping pile of babies ❤

01/05/2019

V***n has gone from being one of my friendliest does, to a growling, protective momma. I'm hoping she calms down here, but for now, everytime I do a baby check she must inspect the nest afterwards.

30/04/2019

Mountain Pine's Phoenix had 4 kits on Sunday. Unfortunately she scattered them and is now down to 2 😔 I'm thinking I'll foster them to her sister V***n and hope she does better with a second chance..... Anyone know how to tell which babies are the fosters?

Mountain Pine's V***n had 7 kits last night with only one being DOA. Not too shabby for a first time mom 😏 I usually don't expect the first litter to survive, but with V***n coming from strong maternal lines I just might let myself hope for success. These are also our first kits from Bad Ass's Mr. Smee, and it looks like all 4 magpie colours are possible from this pairing.

27/04/2019

Went out to do evening chores, and stumbled upon Mountian Pine's V***n in the middle of kindling. Despite all the hair on the wire, it seems she figured out what she was doing before the kits started to arrive, as the few I glimpsed where safely under her in the nest. I'll go out later and make sure everyone is settled.
