Updates

Hi. Well, not much has been going on here. I heard everybody did really well at Mini Lop Nationals. Just to name a few...Lana, Nicole, Velvettouch Rabbitry, Sunnybrook Rabbitry didnt send any of there rabbits to ML Nationals, but rabbits from them, that they sold to other people, did really well. Congratulations everyone!! ;)

Well, my neighbor raises goats. I sometimes take care of them, while he is gone trucking. Well, I also signed up to bottle feed baby goats, if they are abadoned, or they have more then 2. Well, one was abadoned yesterday, and his here. Its a girl, and her name is Izzy, short for Isabell. She is doing awesome. So wish her luck!! ;) TTYL.

Lucky's Memorial

7th day of Life

7th Day Of Life
1st Day Of Life



Snuggled Up In His Blanket

This post is in loving memory of Lucky The Bunny. Lucky was a solid Lilac Mini Lop. He was loved by all that knew him. Lucky was born on April 13, 2009. He had 2 DOA siblings. Lucky sadly passed away on April 21, 2009 on his 8th day of life. We all miss him very much. I would like to thank: Friends, Family, and Blogger Visitors for praying for Lucky. R.I.P Lucky, we will miss you, and always love you. :)

R.I.P LUCKY

Hi. Tuesday night Lucky started having seizures (i think), and was crying. :( My mom brought him out to feed him, and all the sudden he went into the "dead limp", but we brought him back, and he started having little seizures. Like he would act all hungry, then he would go all bad, and stuff like that. Anyways we lost him Wendsday morning. He died peacefully, and not in pain, so that makes me feel a little better. I just find it weird that it happend when he was 8 days old, and not 2-3 days old. Hmm. But tommorow is a bunny ceromony for Lucky, on this blog. So check it out sometime tommorow. TTYL.

Hi. Well today Lucky is 8 days old! He is still alive, and doing great. My mom thought his eyes were trying to open, hehe. Well, im not sure I should keep Creampuff or give her another chance...what do you guys think?? She didn't produce anything chocolate (except that lilac is chocolate based), but that doesn't really count. Hmmm...

Im gonna clean the rabbitry today, and organize a little. Oh, and I also choose who is going to fair. Here they are:

*Blue
*Thumper
*Buddy
*Ash
*Secret Score
*Roman
*Oakey
*My 3 Roasters
*My 3 Fryers
*Bear
*Melody
*Nakita(they talked me into this one)
*Snickerdoodles
*Harley(same as Nakita)
*Dutchess(Im showing her for a friend)


Well, they talked me into Nakita, and Harley. I dont know why I entered them, I already know what there gonna say, but oh well, who cares. They will say Harley is long in the shoulder. Actually...Nakita has never been shown, so she may do ok. TTYL.

Baby Bunnies??

Well, above is Blue, my ND he is alot more filled out now.
This is Lucky, I will tell you in a second


Here is Lucky again

Here is Ash a while ago.




And here is Melody my NZ white doe.
Ok, so there are your pictures. :) Anyways, Creampuff had 1 DOA this morning, a broken lilac, and 1 VERY COLD solid lilac. So, I rushed the VERY COLD baby inside, and got him warm. It took a while to "revive" him, and get him warm. Creampuff doesn't seem to know how to take care of them. :( So, Lucky is inside under a heat lamp in my room. He will be taken outside at least 2 times a day, to nurse off of Creampuff. And he will be fed replacement milk a few times a day as well. :) I dont think Creampuff is done, so I will let you know if there are more babies. ;) Keep Lucky in your prayers. :) TTYL.

HAPPY EASTER!!!!

Happy Easter everybody!!!! I hope you all have a wonderful one!!

Well, Creampuff is 2 days late. Im still hoping SOMETHING happens. She still looks prego, but we shall see. Nakita didnt have babies, she is WAY over due, so I will rebred her, and if nothing happens then, she will start her retirement. :) I cleaned out the rabbitry, other then that nothing much happening. ;) TTYL.

The Coast

Hi, the coast was great! We did some surf fishing (but didnt catch anything), tidepooling, and just enjoying the beach. Sunday the ocean was extremely calm, monday not so calm. Ok, so sunday night I turned off my cell phone. At around....9 monday morning I got a voicemail. It was from my grandma (who was taking care of the animals), and it said: "KAYLA, CALL ME YOUR PIG HAD BABIES!!!!" So, I called her back, and Daisy my pig had 12 babies. 2 were brought inside to try to save, cause they werent doing good. She saved one, the other one passed on. Two were still born. So, that leaves her with 9. All black and white, except one amost all black. She is a good mommy too. I have a favorite a little gilt (female) she is so cute, and doesn't scream when you hold her. One of them has a odd marking like Cruella Devila from 101 Dalmations. Lol.


Gracy's babies are doing good. All healthy. Lacy's babies were weaned. Creampuff recieves a nestbox today. :) TTYL.
