Netherlands!!

I am super excited! I got a pair of Netherlands again!! :) :) I had Netherlands back when I was littler and have missed them and they made their way back into the rabbitry! I have London a Sable Marten Junior Doe :) She is super friendly after she has eaten :) They are just settling in but I am super excited to get more :) We will have about 8 - 12 holes dedicated to them. Next is Bradford a Himi Senior Buck! He is super cute and is molting pretty badly right now but that's okay he has really nice type. Both London and Bradford are pretty nicely typed.
I need to update the blog more often but I just keep forgetting! The days go by wayyy to fast :P. Anyways, I got a new 8 hole stacking cage!!! I am super duper excited and it's in really good shape. I got it from another breeder and they took good care of it. Best part is... it's put together already!! haha I am very bad at putting cages together, I also got 2 new stackers that I had to put together it was just a stacked 24x30 2 cages with castors but man it was hard! I didn't realize that the castor needed to be level (blonde moment!) but they weren't so I had to take out 'U' Nails out which are nails shaped like a U and I pounded them in hard! so it took me about 45 minutes to actually get them out! Ugh such a pain! But that's okay they look really really nice!!
My ideal plan for my rabbitry is this
(2) 8- Hole Stacked Units with Plastic Pans
(2) 4- Hole 24x30 Stacked Units with Plastic Pans
Then that will be 24 cages so 8 for Hollands, 8 for ND and 8 for breeding does and litters, then I will have 3 24x46 cages for Sophia my mini lop doe, Truffles, my mini Lop Doe and Lily my other mini lop doe, then I will have 2 18x30 cages for growing out juniors and a 24x24 cage. Then I have another 24x24 cage for my mini lop buck that I might move into a 24x36 cage if I get enough money one day I will! Then I have Landon's HUGE cage of 30x36 that he loves although he doesn't spend much time in it! He comes to his name now!! I am so proud of him he lives to binky too :)
