Back to the Barn

Whew, I finally got a chance to go out to the barn. It felt wonderful to spend time looking through all the babies and sorting them. I couldn't stay out there too long as I can't keep my foot down. With Allison's help I was able to sort out or at least look over several litters. From Dutch to Polish and back to Dutch. It was wonderful and very exciting to run my hand over them. We have some very promising looking younguns coming up. We are looking forward to the December 5 show in E. Lansing. We will have a couple juniors that will be ready to go along. Hope to see you there.

Beautiful Fall day

Today is a beautiful fall day with lots of sun and warm temperatures. As I am healing from foot surgery, I am unable to enjoy the weather other than through the window. However, it enabled Mike to get out and ride the motorcycle and that makes a happy husband.

So whats new in the bunny barn? Believe it or not, we have added angoras to our list of breeds. I have a spinning wheel and with Allison expressing interest in spinning and the angora rabbits we decided to give it a try. We are up to 10 angora rabbits but 2 are still up for sale. We don't plan to do a lot of breeding of these fuzzy critters and our main focus remains on the Dutch.

Dutch babies are popping out of the boxes. We have a couple of awesome looking grey babies, very cute chocolates and some wonderful blues. These little guys won't be ready to show until next year but we have high hopes that there are some winners in the bunch.

I want to add that Audra purchased 2 Blue Dutch Jr.s from us in the early Spring. She had a great time exhibiting her new Dutch rabbits this summer at several shows. Froot Loop and Glory did very well, winning every time she took them out. Congratulations on your wonderful summer!

Looking forward to the December show in E. Lansing. Join us there!
