Mini Rex 👀 for 🏠! Out of Bunny Burrows’ Irina (self blue) by Bunny Burrow’ McKinley (broken black). There is also a broken chocolate doe but she was too squirrelly to photograph.

Born first week in January

This is inmate no. MCH 2051, otherwise known as Daisy.

She’s naughty. 3 counts of breaking and entering (fence jumping), 2 counts of malicious mischief (going through a fence and breaking out of the barn). She’s currently securely in maximum containment (lambing jug) awaiting transfer to a new pasture. Repeat offender. Think she can be rehabilitated?

This is #14. When she came to us she didn’t really people all that well. I mean she didn’t HATE people, she just does not PREFER us. Once you caught her she was fine - assuming you could catch her.

When the Kardashians were with us she mothered them and Scooter like crazy. Always knew where they were. If they didn’t come home with everyone else she yelled for them and they came running back.

She’s laying in the barn right up next to the lambing pens, happy as a clam, LETTING ME PET HER.

I have a feeling I’m not gonna need to worry about anything from her… aside from stealing lambs.

Heads up Fuzzy Lop breeders:

If you have a rabbit with Nerd Girls' Winifred Sanderson (WINNIE) on the pedigree, please make sure that the variety is listed correctly. Somehow, sometime after she was sold and left my barn, her pedigree was altered to reflect her pedigree as black tort. She's not, she's solid blue. Please make any corrections needed on your pedigree; though I'm not sure what to do if you've already registered offspring from her - that is a question for ARBA.

This handsome 3yo Border Leicester ram is looking for a new farm where his girlfriends are unrelated.

Sired by Bless Ewe Farms Blake Shelton onto Dennistoun Farms Matilda (silver/black natural colored), Nerd Girls’ Gerald has serviced his ewes and is looking to move on.

His fleece consistently wins top awards for consistency of lock structure throughout and is sought after by hand spinners - I’ve sold 2 of his fleeces and only kept one.

He is mild mannered and does well with wethers or other rams. (The Hampshire ram is not available).

He is a TANK but leads well on the halter, stands for hoof trimming and is obedient for the shearer. He has attempted to ram me ONCE but a feed scoop to the face stopped that problem.
