Another kit!
Another kit joined the ranks of ABC Rabbitry. Yesterday morning Solar gave birth to a single little kit.
She gave birth on day 35 so I’m surprised it was fine!
It’s a rather odd color, I’m thinking tort, perhaps blue again. It’s blue on the sides and the head, but pink everywhere else and has a pink spot right in the middle of it’s forehead.
Besides that, Peter Pan has now departed. His two sisters are doing well, and I’m holding onto them for another month to see how they turn out. (They’re right in their uglies)
Blackberry’s kits are astouding. *dropped jaw* I can drool at them all day!
I have:
1) black otter doe
2) black doe
3) black buck
I really like the black buck, even though he’s bigger than the other two. The black otter doe is right behind, and the black doe is last. The others have more mass than she does. However, they’re only three weeks so they might get better.
I tried to breed Sunkist with Cooper, a friend from 4-H’s buck, however he didn’t really understand what to do.
Sometime in the future, Georgia and Fluffy will “marry” (another friend from 4-H providing the buck) and the 4-Hers asked me to come to their rabbit meeting! Isn’t that sweet? I really miss all my friends in 4-H, I went to an Acheivement night last night and had a blast. I knew I’d one top points in Cooking, Crafts, and Flowers, but got a surprise award presented to the person with the most entries in the fair! I entered 42 and I got a plaque I get to keep for a year.
I’m thinking of conviencing mom that I should do 4-H again, because, as we all know, I really need another thing to keep me busy! xD
On that note, I apologize for the lack of postings. I’m struggling to stay on track with school and juggle other things, so posting has been in the back for a while now.
I’ve been reading all your blogs even if I haven’t been commenting! Keep writing!

Congrats!! I can’t wait to see pictures of Blackberry’s litter and Solar’s kit… *hint* *hint* lol!;-) I think joining 4-H is a great idea, everyone could learn a lot from your experience with rabbits. Good Luck, keep us posted.

Too bad he didn’t make it.
You SHOULD join 4h.
