New Additions
We are getting sooo many new bunnies! It's awesome!! I am super excited to get stacked cages in June! It's going to be soo nice!! We are getting Aiden a blue otter buck from Heaven's Ark Rabbitry that I am beyond excited to get him! I can't wait to breed him with Kali! Then I am getting an English Lop named Landon from Purple Thistle!! I can't wait to get him too!!! He is going to be super cute!! I am also on the hunt for a BEW Buck and Doe and then I am going to get a charlie orange or a broken orange from Huggable Hollands I can't decide! I am hoping I will have room for them all!

Cleaning :P
It's been a week since I have posted, my goal was to post something every week so I guess I am doing pretty good so far! Saturdays are bunny barn cleaning yuck! I don't mind cleaning cages but I mind scrubbing the pee off the walls and floors. It's also bunny maintenance day a very thorough brushing for the lion heads and nail clippings of everyone and any who needed tattoos to get tattooed so it is about a 6 hour days but it's well worth it! I love spending time outside and with the bunnies, I try to get as many of them as I can outside to play but they all get held and if they don't get out on Saturday then they will get out on Sunday. I try to get everyone out about 5 times a week so often I am doing my homework out there watching them! I love having babies it's so much fun! I didn't think Dakota took because last time she pulled fur like a week in advance and I was so disappointed but to my surprise I walked in the shed and there is a box full a hair and 8 babies!! 8 seems to be a frequent number in the shed! Sophia had 8 babies Allison had 8 babies and now Dakota had 8 babies! We have 23 babies in the shed right now. Sophia and Allison's are sooo cute! They are starting to hop out of the nest box, I am not looking forward to all the pooping though! But they make up for it because of their cuteness! I decided baby animals are made overly cute because if they were ugly people would be annoyed sooo much faster with them!

Babies!
I can't believed how fast the babies are growing! Sophia's 7 which I haven't decided on names yet are twice as big as Allison's babies! They are all so cute! Allison's babies are starting to open their eyes and they look like little aliens right now! I wish I could be as good as some people on telling whether they are boys or girls! I can't wait to find out! Sophia's babies are so laid back which is just like Sophia! She is a real sweetheart but if you try to pick her up your bound to get bit! Allison's babies are so spazzy! They are really cute though! Sophia's litter is looking pretty good for showing! I am so excited! I might keep one even though I shouldn't! I am watching 2 black ones and a sable point I marked their ears because they are impossible to tell apart! The cages are going to be really crowded when they start coming out of the box! I think I will have to upgrade them to bigger cages! I decided I would breed Kali with Brody because after learning more about showing I think that Brody and Kali would make a nice pair! She is due May 2nd! I can't wait! This will be my first litter of purebred Hollands so I am nervous for peanuts! Dakota is due on the 6th I can't wait! It looks like she has 8 in there! She is HUGE, last litter she had 6 but she 'licked' them too much so I am going to try not to touch them, both Sophia and ALlison are excited when I take the boxes out of their cages! I keep telling them enjoy them while they aren't climbing all over you!
