This is hazelnut, the only red I kept out of her litter. . These are babes born 3 weeks ago.

My most favorite doe gave birth a week ago. I was like oh yeah, a whole litter of reds. Well it ain't looking that way now. Curse my reds and their self lines. . . (I was too lazy to resize sorry) Anyways, A whole bunch of people are selling out of reds. I litterally just missed out...

I've haven't been this excited for a litter in a couple years. Thoe babies are rolling around in her stomach. Her 3oth day was Wednesday. So, let's make some predictions. This is her first litter and she is bred to my main red herd buck Topaz. It's a Red x Red cross.My red lines carry self...

I'm getting him this weekend. Looks like he has more than 50%, but I need him for my broken program

I just got back from vacation , and my little ones have double in size. They've learned how to drink out of a bottle and now I'm teaching them to pose. I pretty much know who I'm keeping and selling now. I'll miss my babes 1. Red Doe(Almond) DQ for bitten ear, but she's a sweetheart. I...

These litters are Mini Rex andwill be 3 weeks this week. Ethel had 6 in her litter, and it's a RED x RED cross :D. Personalities are starting to sprout. They all kept nibbling at my note pad 1. Red Doe named Almond. Her mother bit her ear off so she's brood quality :D Shame since she has nice...

As all MR breeders know, there are color crossing rules. Well, we raise reds and you only breed red to red unless you outcross to another color to improve type or fur. My little sister secretly bred our main Red doe to our Broken Black Otter buck. I found this out when she gave birth and I...

I have a black otter doe. Day 34 for her was yestrday, and she started to pass a kit. The kit was breached and it was hanging halfway out. I didn't eant to break her sac so I left her alone. She eneded up ripping half of the baby and now the head is stuck in the birth canal. This is a race...

Welps.. we had a suprising number of torts pop out of our red litters. Guess the lines carry it. There's one tort that has shadings and points that are not as defined. You can really tell when I put him next to his sister(Black Tort). Posted some pics. he's on the left

The kids are 8 days old and they are round bellied all the time. Ethel had 6 lovely kits. 2 tort, 1 fawn, and 3 reds. One isn't pictured because I fostered him to Lucy

This is the litter that was born less than a day ago(5/19/2011). Picture is when they are 15 mins old. I got to watch Lucy give birth. She loved keeping me waiting till day 32. She delivered 7 pretty quickly and then coughed up the afterbirth on my carpet!!!!Looks like 4 broken otters(2 are...

Ethel is estimated to kindle tomorrow. I put the nestbox in yesterday. I just went out there and she's put her carpet piece in the nestbox and is pulling fur. From experience, my does will usually wait untill the last possible moment to make a nest. Looks like she's gonna do well for a 1st time...

This came up again in my rabbit group on facebook. Myself and another breeder were talking about her broken reds, she says she got herBROKENS out of 2 SOLIDS.The first thing I thought was.... that is an impossibility genetically. The solid gene is homozygous recessive(en). When you pair homo...

Meet Taloola Belle . Finally got her the other day. She was jittery and refused to pose. Best pic I could get, I'll try for better ones later. We are very pleased with our new addition. Nice, clean color. Good short ear and a nice head. The best balance in our herd, Nice depth. Too bad she has...

Well, I didn't actually breed them. I told my sister to not breed until after we got back from our cruise(I'm in a pickle about who will take care of them). She misunderstood me and bred every doe we have. I palpated and they are indeed all pregnant Mini Rex Topaz X Ethel( Red X Red)...

Thought I'd see which colors you mini rex breeders like best. You don't even have to be a breeder of mini rex, just pick a color :) I bet you all think my favorite variety is Red...not so much. My little sister is obsessed with the color red and that's why we have our herd of mini rex now...

Rabbits can't have babies forever. I've been doing a lot of research and asking questions and the average retire age seems to be around 4 years old for does. I know bucks can sire litters longer. On average(in your rabbitry) What age doe your does stop producing. Or what age do you recommend to...

I made a new website becuase I was bored. It's basically the same exact layout, give or take a few things. Pros and cons to each domain. Tell me which one you like better. Old site http://snmrabbitry.webs.com/ New Site http://snmrabbitry.weebly.com/

I'm getting a nice little red doe and blue otter doe from Ohio May 1(not the best pictures). I would get more but my transporter ran out of space. I might just ask her to add on just for me This is Taloola Belle. Adorable.. Mrs. Pam said she was pick of the litter, but her nose got bit and the...

Okay, so we just got into Mini Rex and the prices for some of the animals ranges from $20 to $200 :O Sweet golden graham crackers. My question is how do you price your animals. We're raising red Mini Rex and they're pretty rare in the south. I've got a nice doe with 2 legs and great linesfrom a...
