Hi from down-under! We have one female Lilly and a male Ruby (hmmm, yes well he was meant to be a female also). Lilly and Ruby are only just of maturity age. 4 weeks ago Lilly kitted a litter of 6. All have survived and doing wonderfully and nearly ready to head out into the big world to there new forever homes (all of which have new homes already waiting). In discovering babies and that yes indeed, Ruby had testicles, we had him nutered. But this didn't happen till the monday and the kits were born on the friday. Due to my inexperiance Lilly was already pregnant with a second litter while having just given birth to the first.
Lilly managed well, or so it seemed, until she kitted yesterday to just one kit who died over night (see my other post in general discussions on todays sad events).
Lilly and Ruby are both uppity-eared rabbits, however one from their first litter has had his ears flop in just the last 3 days, so they must have some lop somewhere back in the family lines.
Lilly is mostly white with ginger spots/markings, while Ruby is ginger all over with just the tiniest bit of black trimming the tips of his ears. 4 of there babies are ginger like dad, one pure white but with brown eyes, and one little one like mum, white with ginger markings.
Anyway thats us... i'll post pics of the gang soon as it seems i have to upload the images first, so i'll have to go work that out now.
thanks
Naomi
