Thanks! I can't wait either. I'm so excited about these two. I haven't named either yet, still thinking about names. Any suggestions?

No, they are yours. The name will come in time when you spend more time with them. Ours are based on Harry Potter, expect our rescue. Willard's name was just a name that popped into my Husband's head. He saw this bunny and the name was there.

You'll figure it out. I don't think there is a time line or time limit on figuring out a name. Baby boy, Handsome, My little Man works temporarily.

Bunnies I have found don't recognize names. They recognize the tone of your voice.

Very simplistic animal.

Have fun. You should be the one to decide. Just my opinion.

It doesn't hurt to get suggestions & discard all if you wish.

I see some of your other rabbits' names are based on their coloring. so how about Dusk or Dusty for the blue grey one & Splotches or Zebra for the black & white one.

 

[LindseyG]

Thank you! Yes i'm sure a name will come to me one day. I have 13 days to think of one.
Well little furby is now bald. I plucked him yesterday and he now has only his short new coat. I will post pictures later. He had about 3 1/2 inches of beautiful hair all over. It should grow in even longer in his next coat.

his sister star is next her hair is about 4 inches and so beautiful and white.

Someone is going to have fun with that fur making it into something nice.

And the bunnies, must be feeling really good right now. What a lot of fur. That's great! Really nice.

BTW, would love to see what they look like now. But then again I saw your Pumpkin after her plucking of fur. Just a regular bunny and it must be neat watching the new fur come in.

 

[LindseyG]

Thanks Karen, I think they feel much better too, all that wool must make them hot. I'll take pictures today, I wanted to wait till they were both plucked and now they are, I am amazed at the amount of hair that came off of both of them, Star had the most.

 

[LindseyG]

Here are the photos of my herd today that I just took.
Star sporting her goofy looking hair after I plucked her, She was sensitive around her legs so I left the hair on them lol she looks silly.
I dissapprove of that camera

And furby who is gorgeous even when he is bald

And my little group of 3 who I love. It's amazing how they all love each other, they are always cuddled together and grooming each other, such an odd combination of sizes and breeds but they still get along.

the other two have made Frank the flemmie more brave

Cottonball's hair is growing back in very fast after he was plucked less than 2 months ago.

Pumpkin my beauty queen inside and out

cute little dude (its still hard calling him a boy lol, I was so used to him being a girl)

cuddle time

Pumpkins beautiful satin wool

What a beautiful bunch of bunnies!!! The fleece looks so lovely and soft!

 

[LindseyG]

Thank you! They are very soft and sweet. I just love my woolie babies. Well just 11 days till I bring my new babies home! I can't wait.

Check out the webcam, the litter on the bottom with the blue momma has my little buck in it.

Thanks for posting the Bunny Cam. That was really neat to see!

BTW, it must be close to feeding time. They were all lined up looking out.

 

[LindseyG]

Thank you. I love watching the babies, they are so cute and are getting super fluffy now. All my rabbits are doing great. I am beginning to learn the two new ones personalities. Star is very sweet and curious, Furby just goes with the flow. lol I got some stacking cages today and set them up. I am all ready for my new arrivals! only 7 more days!

 

[ZRabbits]

I bet you are excited.

How's your Solid Blue Buck doing? Did you figure out a name for that little guy?

[LindseyG]

I dont have him yet. He is coming home at the same time as the broken female from the same breeder. the suspence is killing me. Haha

Sorry, was so excited for you when you posted pic of that Gorgeous boy, didn't read properly.

Hoping these days go by fast for you so you can get your new girl and boy home and settled in.

[LindseyG]

Thank you Karen, that's ok, I understand the confusion. They are both precious babies, I just can't wait to bring them home.

Only 3 more days! I am so excited! Today I received my Rabbi Tatt tattoo gun in the mail. I went ahead and tattooed pumpkin and Star since they weren't tattooed yet. It went pretty well. Pumpkin was a good girl the whole time. I had to wrap star up in a towel though she was fine afterwards and forgave me when I brought her a treat. lol I got weights on the two of them while they were in here since I got a new scale. Pumpkin is 4.86 lbs and star is 3.9 lbs. She is pretty big for a 12 week old! I will get weights on the others soon too. Everyone is doing well. Frank seems to be coming out of his shell a little more. He lets me get close to him now and rub his nose every once in a while Pumpkin and Cottonball are really helping him come out of his shell and realize humans aren't so bad.

 

[LindseyG]

Also I just discovered the reason for me sexing cottonball wrong which I've never done with a bunny as old as him. He has a split penis. It also makes him pee on himself so I have to keep the hair on the underside of his tail, legs, and belly shaved so he doesnt pee on himself. Its good he was neutered since I have no pedigree or history on him he could also pass this fault down to his offspring.

 

[LindseyG]

Babies are here if you didn't see the other thread. They are just precious and sweet. Even sweeter than Furby and Star. I am in love already. Here are some pics I took today and I also weighed them today. The buck is 1.2 lbs and the doe is 1.95 lbs. They are so tiny and cute!

I love how one of his ears has tipped over but the other hasn't yet.

Soo fluffeh! Do you own any clothing spun from their wool? They are all super cute and happy looking

 

[MarisaAndToby]

Have you got names for the two new additions?! They are to die for! SO cute.

 

[MrsMarshmellow]

Lindsey - I'm looking for an angora or pair for wool and to possibly breed in the future. I'm a couple of hours away with you in Chattanooga. Can you tell me where you got your Angoras or if you are selling them yet? I've been stuck on finding somewhere to purchase them. Thanks!
