It is with very heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved Cinnamon. He was the very first Holland Lop and the love of Katy's life. He was an amazing bunny. He started the entire rabbitry by winning Grand Champion of 4 class Katy's very first 4-H year and passed the day after Katy and Calli won Grand Champion and Reserve Grand Champion at the fair this year. We were blessed by him, loved him, and miss him dearly. ❤️

Update:

After switching feed from Heinhold to Rowe...... Our 18 mo battle with no conceptions, dead kits if they did conceive, and generally unhealthy and poor conditioned rabbits is OVER!!!!

Katy has had 2 successful Blanc de Hotot litters, 2 successful dwarf hotot litters, and 10 successful Holland lops litters (30+ babies) in the past 3 weeks!!!! (She had 7 live kits born October through March)

Thank you Rowe!!! It has been an amazing feed for us.. I recommend it to anyone who is having issues!!

They're sweet and fluffy they say.... Until one's not..... Lucky I really like this one's babies!!! 🤦

The injuries to rabbit people.... 🫣😳

10/02/2023

Yep.... Both blue fox... 🤦

But SO dang cute!!!

14/01/2023

We did a little something...

After all the issues we are having with feed, we decided to jump in both feet first. We are now dealers of Rowe feeds!!! Apparently I don't have enough things to do, so becoming a feed dealer was definitely on the top of the list!!! 🤣🤣🤣. I am loving the thought of being able to order when I need you and get it fresh without it sitting in a warehouse somewhere....

So full admission.. I just got contacted in an ugly Way by someone who bought a rabbit from us. They bought it back in October. The broken chocolate that I had posted as a doe that I thought was a doe, that multiple of us looked at including dropping it off with this person by transport who showed her that it was a doe - now tells me it's a buck and conveniently can't read the tattoo that was clearly visible when I sent it. Please when she blows up how bad of a person I am, know that I do not take mistakes lightly. I also have no other animals that don't have a good tattoo that I did all of the exact same time. So for 3 months she's had this animal and now tells me she wants a refund. She also can't show me the tattoo because she says it's no longer there. Please please as I tell people multiple times if there's ever a mistake, please let me know. I'm not perfect but multiple people looked at this animal and apparently we all missed it and 3 months later is not the time to be attacking me. At this point there's no proof the animal is mine, there's no proof that she hasn't used it for 3 months as a buck and gotten her use out of it and now wants her money back, so many things. 😢. Crappy mistake by me... 🤬😭

Anyone having issues with rabbits feed, please join us!

We were quiet in 2022... Here's why....

We have been dealing with some feed issues that have left our rabbitry in pieces... We've lost does, pregnant does, SO MANY litters and babies, and it now appears that it went on so long that our brood mamas can't carry litters anymore... Katy is looking to lose about 60% of her herd. Luckily a few new additions (Thank you Cole Rupprecht , Nicholas Hirsch , Todd Naragon and JASH Rabbitry ) and a very few home growns have handled it much better than others.... She's looking at a complete rebuild year... Not sure she will have anything for Nationals at this point... So Very disappointing.. Yes, it was feed related... Not a doubt. Unfortunately I figured it out too late. So... We may be looking to buy good stock to replace some of her losses.. first, she will regroup and mourn for the loss of her very hard work. She loves each one of her rabbits. She built her rabbitry from the ground up...added a few very nice rabbits from several people along the way (Lisa and John, Mari Grace, Critter Co-Op) but worked on constantly approving what she had.. So hard to see your kids hurt. (Not gonna lie..tears shed by me too.) ❤️

All of our rabbits are Reno bound! There are approximately 60 rabbits either sold and going to wonderful new homes or bound for Reno for the American Rabbit breeders association convention. This is where we have the chance to become number one in the nation! First car load has gone. Second car load is loading!
Katie and I will be flying out tomorrow morning with two carriers going under the seat on the plane. Medical papers are already with us TSA has been checked with for Katie's feeding tube to make sure I do it right, now I just have to pack!! ❤️

A huge shout out to Kevin Rugen-Jackson for taking the Long haul drive! And my family for continuing to be supportive and taking care of the others while we're gone!!

Something too cute... Babies are prescious!!! Just starting to eat solids... They have a much smaller bowl that is MUCH easier for them to eat out of, but apparently this bowl is better. 🤣🥰
