Bred Rabbits

Yesterday, (with the help of my brother) we had 8 females bred.  I took some pictures today before it began raining of the rabbits who were bred.

 

This is Sprinkles.  She wasn't bred, but she was my Holland Lop who had the surprise litter last week and unfortunately lost all the babies to the cold.

 

Then this is Mara who also had a surprise litter last week.  Her babies also froze in the harsh weather.

 

Valentine is one of my Holland lop females who I was bred yesterday.  She was bred with my lop male, Benjamin.

 

Then here's my female Dadooshka.  She was bred with my male Rhett yesterday.  She's actually from the first litter I ever raised :)

 

Then LE was bred with Oreo, my first two and original pair for breeding :)

 

Tasha (a new double maned Lion Head female) was bred with Piccolo, who's a miniature Lion Head.  It seemed hard somewhat difficult for him, as she's twice as big and did NOT want to be bred.  So we'll just have to wait and see if she's actually pregnant or not.

 

Then Dotty here (who is from Button's last litter) was bred for the first time with my first time male, Achilles.  Hopefully that took place properly and she'll have a litter next month!

 

Then my female Ruby (who is also a 'first timer') was bred with Dustin.  I'm very excited as Dustin always has healthy and large litters :)

 

Then this is Kayla (another Lion Head female) who has had 2 other litters.  For both her past litters, she raised not only her own, but also raised/fostered babies from other litters.   I bred her with my male, Phantom.

 

Then my sweet Cupcake (who's another Holland Lop).  She was bred with my Holland Lop male, Bruce.  She had a surprise litter last year with him and their babies were beyond sweet and healthy!

 

Then an update on Peanuts' surprise litter! :) 

 

They're all doing great! And the blind babies seem to be able to keep their eyes open without any assistance now.

 

I'm going to keep Honey as a replacement for Eleanor....

 

...she's so sweet and really cute!

 

But I've also become rather fond of this little female.  I've been calling this one "Nutsy".

 

She's very sweet and she looks just like a Lion Head! (which she clearly gets from her father :))

 

So there you go! Some photo's of the babies and now you're up to date with who's bred with who.  I calculated it out and they'll be going into hutches Easter Sunday, followed by having their babies the week after Easter. :)
