Another Breeding

Monday I bred another batch of 4! And no, I didn't get any pictures, unfortunately.  But I was able to go out and take some today :)

So, I bred Jetta (one of my newer females).  She's a Californian/New Zealand mix.

The guy I got her from didn't really specify an age...and when I checked her, she seemed very mature. Plus, she kept hopping on the other female she was with.  So I figured she was ready to breed.  

So I stuck her with Dustin, my New Zealand/Rex/Californian mixed male :)

He normally yields large litters.

And then I bred Cottontail, my Giant Flemish mixed female...

...with Bull, my mystery male :)

And then Rhett Jr., my full blooded Giant Flemish male...

:)

...I bred him with my Giant Flemish/Giant Chinchilla female - LE. 

She normally has good sized litters, and with these babies being basically purebred - they're going to be HUGE! LE's round-about 30 pounds. And Jr.'s still growing...but he's probably somewhere between 10 and 20 pounds.  His dad was Rhett - who was HUGE, and his mother was Peanuts - who was also HUGE.  So, he's got some nice genes :)

And then...my sweet, little Mini Lop female. (Who I FINALLY named!!!)

With the help of a friend, she is now named S'Mores :)

Anyway, I actually bred her with that same friend's male Holland Lop, Cinnamon.

This was a first breeding for both S'Mores and Cinnamon, but they both did a great job! Especially Cinnamon.  I wasn't sure how fast he'd be since he's almost 4 years old and hasn't bred before, but he got to work within seconds of being with S'Mores! :)

So...I believe I only have 2 weeks worth of more breedings until all my females are either pregnant or have litters...none of the females who were supposed to have litters this past week did.  So I have to re-breed them.  But the next batch is due to have babies on the 8th of this month...next Friday :) I'm really hoping that there are no more false pregnancies!!! But well, only time will tell for sure.
