Hi. I got the pics of the bunnies! Although I have to put them up tommorow, camera needs to charge first! ;) All the Mini Lops, and looking soo promising! It was hard to decide! Im holding back 6 until 8 weeks: 1 broken chincilla doe, 1 gold tipped steel doe, 1 gold tipped steel buck, 1 broken gold tipped steel buck, and 2 chesnut bucks. Im for sure selling 2 bunnies. Here is some info:
Sunsets Brownie is a chesnut Mini Lop doe. She has nice type, good head, ear, and crown. Fur is ok. She slopes into her HQ, im sure it will round, as she gets older though. Right now, I cant afford to hold her back. Promising doe! $30. She will be pedigreed. Can be registered. Pet~Show~Breeding.
Sunsets Sunrise is a broken gold tipped steel Mini Lop buck. He has nice type, good head, ear crown, nice fur. He also slopes into his HQ, Im sure he will round out. Cant afford to hold him back. Promising buck! $30. He will be pedigreed. Can be registered. Pet~Show~Breeding.
Does anybody know where to get rabbit pedigrees, that you can fill out?? Please leave a comment on here if you do! Thats all for now. TTYL.

BUSY!!!!!
Hi. Gee, I have been BUSY, BUSY, BUSY! Where should I start...simple stuff first. Sweetpea has 8 babies still. Im making final cuts on the baby Mini Lops tommorow (I know, early) but mom wants them out of here. I wont sell them till 8 weeks, so I will make cuts then too. When I look at them tommorow, I will hold back the "for sure" ones, keep the "not sure" ones until 8 weeks, and advertise the "not staying" ones. If you want a Mini Lop, check out my website tommorow! We can find transport, if you dont live close. All of Shastas babies are for sale. I will get pics of them tommorow, and put them on the website. All Nakitas are for sale, and 6 of Gracy's are for sale. Im keeping one black steel looking doe.
We organized!!! I moved out cages to clean, move rabbits around. Cleaned the rabbitry its self. And Im gonna go look at more cages soon! I went to my friends house (Sam) yesterday, and took some bunnies to play with hers. I took: Oakey, Buddy, Oreo, and the 4 Mini Rex's. She took the two Mini Rex does. We traded actually. I gave her the two Mini Rex, for a really nice black Dutch doe. Her name is Cookie. She has amazing markings!!! Im not gonna judge her type yet, one of Sams dogs at her moms house got hold of Cookie, and took off alot of hair. So, Sams bunnies are at her dads house now. I will get pics of her (but they wont be good). I better go for now. TTYL.

Moving around
Hi. No, were not moving lol. I mean moving cages in the rabbitry. We have it all very well organized! It is looking nice! We weaned all the babied (except Gracy, and Nakita). We leave our meat breeds in with there moms longer, to help them grow faster. Im soo impressed with the babies from Secret and Roman! They are gonna be show stoppers for sure!! One of Shastas bucks, has discovered his calling. And decided to test it on his sister. (Mating). Lol! Poor little guy! (Dont worry I checked, he cant breed her, doesnt have his stuff yet). Sweetpeas babies are so cute! One is a blue!! Im so happy I got a blue! If it has good markings, I will keep it. (Lord willing). Well, just a quick update. TTYL.

Survey.......
Hi. Stolen from Keeps Rabbitry BLOG. Originally taken from 4 Kings Rabbitry.
1. How did you deceide the name for your rabbitry?
Well, we were making a rabbit sign for our driveway, to avertise our rabbitry. I was thinking of a name for my rabbitry, I started thinking about Sunsets. When we do have sunsets, they are the most beautiful ones I have seen! So, thats where the name comes from.
2. Youth or Open?
Youth right now. Mainly 4-H. I plan to start showing open next year, maybe sooner.
3. How long have you owned rabbits?
I had a rabbit when I was like 9, but then I gave him away. I got another bunny when I was 10. She is a Dutch named Shasta. I still have her too! So I have been doing this for 3 years.
4. What's the biggest win you've had so far(not that winning is everything!)?
Getting Double Grand Champion with one of my meat breed does. And getting BIS and BOB with my Mini Lop last year. And my first year, I got champion with my meat breed doe.
5. What's the most embarrassing or 'Ah Ha' moment with rasing rabbits?
Hmm, I cant really think of one. I think it was my first year in 4-H showmanship. My doe had been bred, so she was a little grumpy around the bucks. (Mind you, this was in the champion round). I had 2 bucks next to me. One was another Dutch like my Dutch, and the other was a HUGE I think it was a French Lop! He was bugging Shasta, and Shasta was being a bum. So I had to ask the girl to move down. (Of course I thought the judge wasnt looking) But he was! Lol.
6. How did you decide what breed to raise?
Well, we have 4 breeds right now. Dutch was our first breed. My friend had gotten a adorable black Dutch doe. So, I begged my parents to let me have a bunny, and let me do 4-H with it. They agreed, and I found the perfect Dutch. My second rabbit was a Californian I had purchased from my 4-H leader. I loved the breed, and dad thought they were great for meat production. I purchased a Mini Lop from Lana, of Hip Hoppin Rabbitry, and I instantly fell in love with the breed. Then, we have always loved the NZ for meat production. Then we have our rescued Champange D' Argent (Plan to start crossing her with my Satin). Then, we have my Satin buck.
7. What is your current 'set up' and how many cages?
We have about 26 holes right now. I plan to get about 30 in the future.
8. What's your short term goal (now to June 2009)?
Get some NICE Mini Lop babies on the ground.
9. Long term goal?
I want to go to shows, and have fun. And of course have tons of babies! And grand a homebred rabbit.
10. Anything else we need to know?
Nope, I cant think of anything. ;)
