Our next litter due is from Mossypossum Bunny Sundae. I am excited, she is the
dam to my favorite little homegrown sable point, Teddy. She is an awesome mom
and does a great job raising her kits. She is not due until Friday, but she has
been pulling fur and running around with a big bunch of hay in her mouth. She
goes out into the run, checks out the nest box in the new addition, then goes
back into the run, then goes into the original coop and to the nest she always
uses and puts the hay back in it. Then she does the whole thing again. I am
pretty sure she took this breeding. Maybe we will get more babies
soon!
Muffin's kits are getting more fur. We lost a runt yesterday, even
with extra feedings, it just did not seem to eat right. I am wondering if it was
a peanut. It had very small pinched hind quarters, but the ears and face looked
normal. There is one peanut left, I expect he will be gone this morning when I
go check on them. They are 5 days old, I am surprised it has made it this long.
There are 4 fat little kits left. Two torts and one really dark tort, I think it
will look like Grizzly, and then there is one little sable point. I hope it is a
doe, though if it is a buck, we may keep it anyway, if it looks good.
We
have the Skiatook show coming up this Saturday, we are only taking Grizzly and
Ivory. All the other girls are pg. We are bringing Teddy to trade for a broken
sable point doe. I can bring one carrier! It is going to be a long day, the show
is a triple and the specialty is after the end of both of the first shows. There
will be a lot of waiting around for us, being we are only showing two rabbits!
Lots of fun fellowship!
