Greensboro NC.

-
Mom and I went to a show in Greensboro NC this last weekend. Yes, North Carolina. Yep, it was quite a drive - a very pretty drive!
-
-
It was beautiful even if it rained the whole time! I could move there, really I could.
-

-
Our rabbits fared pretty well at the show, very well in my opinion. It was a two day drive down and we took very young seniors and molty juniors so I wasn't expecting anything. We ended up with quite a few top 5 placements (!!!) but the highlight was winning a couple classes and a Best Opposite Sex of Breed with a solid junior doe! Congrats to Tracy and Jenna for their TRIPLE BEST IN SHOW with THF Saynora's Abe, a rabbit I wanted to pocket pretty badly. He is awesome. Congrats to Jenny for her double BOS (HL), Garrett for his triple Best of Breed with Lil' Bit Farms Tazz (ND) and Brendan for his double BOB and a BIS with Lil' Bit Farms Yogi (youth ND), and to Kristen for her double BOB with Keep's Tyron (JW)!

We had a really good time at this show. It was great to see our long distance friends again!
-
Thank you to Kristen and Tim for putting up with us, err I mean putting us up.
-
Oh, we also won an award for the furthest miles traveled! Woot woot! :)

I officially have show fever. When is the next one??

Brokens.

I took a few more junior pictures and posted them to the website. I have 3 broken dwarfs due soon and I'm anxious to count spots on these litters. So far most my brokens have been charlie/lightly marked. I think Mom finally found a decent broken buck to work with, both in pattern and type. Funny thing, she found him in our barn. We had put him 'up' to grow off and recently pulled him out to re-evaluate. He's not too bad, something I think we can work with. He's less than 5 months old and just starting to develop.

Pictured below is my sweet doe that I talk of often, Zoyia. She's keeping Mason busy for us.

We have a rabbit show this weekend, yay! This one should be a fun and exciting adventure.

It's begun.

I went thru and added to the website all the Holland Lop pictures I have taken over the last few months. I was surprised to find I had periodically taken the same rabbits out and photographed them and had not posted any of them. So every couple of months I had updated pictures of the same rabbits. Going thru all those pictures gave me a good reminder not to get so far behind again.

-

I still have quite a few Hollands that I'd like to get new or updated pictures of. Molts is going to hinder that process. I had really wanted updated pictures of Laramie and Zero but they are currently in a worst molt race. Zero is winning hands down.

-

This morning I worked on updating the JW page with the few I have left, almost done.

-

After that I'll start working on the Dwarf pages. Mom finally has a few promising does and bucks coming up and the does are in high production gear. It's been so long.

-

Below is one of my favorite bucks Hunter. He just turned senior.

-

I am expecting Hunter's first litter by Azalia soon. I am very excited. Azalia is a very nice full bodied doe out of my sweetie Zoyia.

Happy Labor Day!
