Historical Date Comparisons That May Actually Ruin The Concept Of Time -
So John Harris’s homegrown (and Rawley Anderson’s favorite lol) doe, Black Widow, had 4 babies sometime between 10:30pm-1:30am….He woke me at 1:30am to let me know she’d had babies and they were in the nestbox and were still warm when he found them but she had not pulled any fur to cover them and he was asking where the extra wool stash was since we had shaved down the two angoras a while back and had saved a bag of wool. I told him where the bag was and fell back to sleep. He obviously did what needed to be done bc when I got up this morning at 9am and went to check on them…they were deep in a nest with wool all around them! Thank goodness John Harris was up and paying attention and checking on all the mommas with nestboxes before he went to bed!! Bc if he hadn’t found them…it likely would have been a sad and very different outcome this morning.
We’re thinking babies will be here soon!
Baby season has begun…..
We were asked if we would be willing to bring some bunnies to church this morning to share the cuteness for Easter….we took Bowie, Luna and Silverado. They were a HIT!
(Only posting a sample of photos of people that I know won’t mind!)
We attended the Texas Rabbit Breeder’s Assn State Show this past weekend…I’ll post results when we get our show report but super exciting was John Harris receiving his awards for being 1st in Texas for Jersey Woolies in 2023!!!
Got a few ready for the TRBA State Show this weekend…..Rebel, Annie Lennox and Hagrid 😍

One of these things just doesn't belong”
Decided to give the New Years Buckle Bash Progress Show a try this weekend! What a fun show with great prizes! Almost 300 rabbits and our little homegrown, JoBre’s Cutie, won Grand Champion Breed Rabbit and overall Grand Champion (Best in Show). John Harris won two belt buckles, a banner, rosettes and lots of goodies! Thanks to the group who put on the show and judge, Jerrett Cobb!
Sigh….when you breed a chinchilla with a black otter hoping to get chins, silver martens or otters and you get all chestnuts…..
