I haven't Shared much lately. Here are some more recent Photos:





These two are from the litter we had out of Nana and Casper.  They were born 6/9/2012.  Twelve were born only 6 survived to the 8 week mark when I try to sell them.  We did keep one Buck a chocolate one that Charlotte named Hershey.  (This might be him we had two chocolates, but I have a good one that is coming up)







This one was a cutie.  I didn't mention this but, this litter was all bucks.  The litter we had last October was almost all does. He looked darker in person, but not quite black.







I have to say this one was my favorite.  He was so adorable.  I wish I had a big barn and could house a lot more I definitely would have kept him.  The reason was a fiber one.  His fiber is mostly white as you can see, and I already have 4 very nice all white rabbits so we went with the beautiful chocolate one.



This was Momma (Nana) with the hole crew (B. June 9th, 2012).  I think I'll call this the family hutch it is really huge. I may have to move Nana to another cage when the next litter shows up.  She is in there all alone now.








This is MaryAnne, she was got in trade.  I traded two of my beautiful REW females from my last October litter with two of Mary Ledoux's Fawn colored females from her last October litter.  I named my girls Ginger and MaryAnn and she went with Laverne and Shirley (keeping in the TV sitcom theme).






This is our handsome Hershey.  They get big fast.  I just groomed him this Saturday he is just beautiful and his brown fiber is just a dream.  He also happens to be a very sweet and snuggly rabbit.  He is a keeper!!!








These are most beautiful and beloved REW girls, Snowflake and her daughters, Vanilla and Flurry.  Snowflake and Vanilla live very happily together in the deluxe hutch I had made by Maine Cage company and picked up at West Lebanon Feed and Supply.  Flurry has her own cage, but as you can see they are still get along well.  They are as beautiful and soft as they look.  I just love these girls.  They are so friendly!!!



This is Ginger (R) with her sister MaryAnn (L) that you saw eariler.  They have the incredibly soft fur of the English Angora which they are part.  Ginger has more fur on her face than MaryAnn, this resembles the English more.  MaryAnn's cleaner face resembles their French Angora heritage.  Though they have probably the softest fiber of the bunch they also tend to mat alot more than the other rabbits.  As far as personality, they are not as friendly as the REW's they are not mean just a little nervous.  After holding for awhile they become quite docile.


This is Ebunny (pronounced :Ebony, I just liked the play on words, like email).  She is by far my most skittish rabbit.  I really wanted a black rabbit.  She is not really a true black, but she is quite beautiful.  She does however have a lot of guard hair.  It is so hard to pick a favorite breed of Angora because they all have different things that are appealing about them.  I think that the German/French Cross is pretty good.  (That is what the REW girls above are).
