Updates

Little enteritis bun bun now weighs 14 and a half ounces.

Emma is due any day, and if she isn't pregnant she is gong to explode. I hope this means more babies which mean smaller babies, which means less chance of fetal giants.

Tea Cup's litter is doing great, all are so sweet and come right up to me.

Night's babies, Ashe and Yuffie are going to make their showing debut next weekend. Can't wait!

All buns are on Pen Pals, so the count down begins till I start seeing results! Let's hope for better fertility rates, and waaaaaay better coats and condition.

In sadder news, we lost Espresso. No idea why, I just found her dead at feeding time. I fear the worse, but I wont get into that now.

Oh No's

Well, we've been hit again. Year of the Dragon, I'm not liking you so much. I believe a little boy from Iris's litter has entritis. Weighs .10oz while the other two are .15oz and one pound. Plus, he's really thin. We've already started treatment, and he's eating the baby food willingly, and loves the Pedialyte. I'll keep the blog updated on his progress. I just hope I can get him to gain weight.

Baby updates

Ruth's Tea Cup X TB's Rocket

This litter just grew up on me!!! Last thing I knew they were bald, and not their eyes are open. I can't wait to start evaluating them.





PP's Do You Rmember X PP's Irish Lass

This litter is developing nicely. I was unable to get posing pictures, they didn't want to cooperate. I will not be keeping any of them. They'll carry non-extension, dilute, and have the shaded gene in there. I don't have use for them, since I am no longer breeding for shadeds.

Website update

I updated the website... again.


http://www.thefuzzypatch.com/


I'm really liking cremes right now, which I've already converted my nail polish blog over to this latest obsession. Also, if you want to know where I got the graphics from (the one's that say "Welcome", and "Show Schedule" that are seen throughout the site) let me know. This isn't what they were intended for, but that's besides the point! I downloaded them awhile ago, and they fit so nice! I also added my juniors, added a bun for sale. That one was a toughy. I don't really want to sell him. I'm also thinking about selling his dad. Dad is a tort, so son is a black that carries non-extension. Either way, not doing shadeds, so he's not of much use to me anymore. I'm also talking to a friend to see if my Siamese Sable will be of any use to her. If not, I'll look into petting him out or giving him away. I got him for free, so I'm not really wanting to sell him.

I'm so proud of myself! I'm actually looking at selling some rabbit I really like. It has to be done. My focus has shifted in a different direction, and I need room to compensate for that change.

Did I mention I wasn't going to JW/AFL Nationals?

Even more changes

A lot of things are changing, I suppose. I decided to completely drop Shadeds from my breeding program, and I'm not going to Jersey Wooly Nationals. Some things have come up, and rather than burden you with my issues, I'm just going to plainly state that those two things aren't going to happen.

My main focus will be on Agouti and Tan. I will keep the Selfs, of course. I will also be breeding for Shaded Tans, so my shadeds aren't completely useless.


In the mean time, I do have 2 tan litters due tomorrow.


I would like to point out that Marshmallow is NOT pregnant. Brat...




Tea Cup ended up making a nest later that night. Such a good ball!



If you zoom in, you'll see a cute bunny staring at you =) This is Irish Lass's litter. All still healthy!




It's going to be nice to only have a small focus. Easy breeding!
