What I have scheduled to go to Leaf on a for sure basis are:
- NZW spayed doe
- REW mini rex doe (very mini - so darn cute!). Scheduled for spay but procedure not performed yet
- Orange lop ear neutered buck OR REW dwarf mix neutered male
- Blue & white lionhead mix, scheduled for an as-yet-unperformed speuter
- Black lop buck, in surgery today
- Blind bunny doe, in surgery today.
If it's at all humanly possible to add more to the trip, I'd very much like to. If it's not, I understand.
Since the rabbits are making their stop/residence (short, permanantor long) here, I'm hopeful that Aiden my Flemish will like one-1st try will be the NZW. If not, he'll have a chance to finally find a bond mate with one of them. A friend donated a huge rabbit hutch to me and I have it set up in my garage right now. It's not new but BIG and Aiden is currently checking it out. Definantly big enough for him and a friend. Once the camera batteries are recharged I'll post some setup pics - he has a huge XPen run there...
REW mini rex - a friend wants a REW, no problem (unless I fall in love!)
Any idea on who is coming, the Orange or REW? REW would be a definant choice as a second for my friend above. She'd probably go for two similar sized... How long neutered is Orange? I have the three lops from a forum member. Two are neutered but one is not spayed at this point.
Orange has a few options, possible (but doubtful) 3rd for my REW friend - Possible bondmate for Aiden if NZW wouldn't work - Possible tagalong with Black Lop to a coworkers friend who currently has one lop that she's training in the "hopping" sport - Possible home with a friend who at this point wants LionX.
LionX - possibly a pal for Orange while they stay here.. or seperate if need be. LionX has a possible home with a friend but if so, we have bunny proofing and NIC building to do before a move is made.
Black Lop - as of now my coworkers friend WANTS him. She's the one with a lop herself, looking for another. There's a slight chance she'd want Orange as well but I won't push the issue.
Blind Doe is staying with me. I'm very excited to be able to offer her a forever home.
On this end it looks good - everything is falling in place. It looks like the only two long terms will be LionX and Orange. LionX will (hopefully) only be while a home is bunny-proofed and Orange just needs to have a definant claim.
Not so hard to find homes with wonderful bunfriendly family and friends of mine at this point. As for

I'm personally NOT going to be put out by having more come. Besides putting out money for additionalfeed, hay, NIC grids/misc, gas to drive (I have a class in Ft Leonardwood so thats where I'll be coming from instead of Rolla) and putting some aside for vetting (including possible alters) ... I'm doing ok. The additional food/hay is mainly to be sent with the buns heading for homes other than mine to be on the safe side in planning - The NIC/misc is for a friend who wants but isn't quite prepared...
The main deal will be space issues during the transport. Of course, if you send just one lionhead mix and Kpink takes the carrier out of the transport equasion - maybe other transport people would sigh with relief about space? I dunno. Its up to you.
I have a friend who was all set to help by fostering if needed BUT I may have to pass on that unless her Florida Room would work. Her hubby started a small remodeling project on Wednesday because he got a Lowes
gift card from work so I'm worried about air pollutants. Maybe next time... if there is one (and no, she isnt one of the above said so no health worries about that!)
