Babies and Updates!

Goldie's babies are doing great. They are absolutely adorable. I have 3 week old pictures of them here and will be getting some new ones this week, Lord willing (they will be 6 weeks old in a couple days).


My bucks and does have been so slow to getting back into the swing of things after the summer months. I have one litter right now, another due in a couple weeks and then a few does bred. Hopefully they'll all start picking up soon here! 
 
Here are a few pictures of the bunnies that I took a couple weeks ago.

Bacardi is such an adorable little junior. His head is going to be a monster, just like his daddy's!


Here are just a few funny pictures of some of the farm animals around the ranch.

Shelby, the kitty, sneaking up on a little sparrow.


Roxy enjoying some rolling around time.


One of my mom's Americana chickens. They are kind of funny looking things.


And one of the Nubian doe yearlings. They're all so sweet, since they were all bottle raised.

Bunnies & Rain

Well, fall weather is in full swing in Oklahoma. The leaves are slowly starting to turn, but the weather is cloudy, rainy and chilly.

Today was an Oklahoma down-pour. It dumped! Here's a few pictures from today.



Just a little rain?!


Miss Mercedes munching on her food this morning!


Lexus peeking from behind her ear!


The ducks are in "duckie heaven" when it rains like this.






I've got a couple litters due in the next week or so. And have several more does to palpate soon. So, we'll be back up and producing soon, Lord willing!

I'm Here...more like, I'm Back :)!

Well, life has been very busy the last few months. I have been actively involved in politics and it took lots of work leading up to the Republican National Convention which was at the end of August. I spent 2 weeks in Tampa the end of August for the RNC. It's been the experience of a lifetime and one I would never change. It has not been an easy journey, but it is worth it, because I'm standing up for what is right. You can view all the details about the trip and what went on down there at my political blog here.

The bunnies are doing great. It's been kind of a slow time in the barn. I haven't taken the time to breed any does for a few months now, so my last litters were born the beginning of June. I've just started breeding does again, so hopefully we'll have a barn full of babies soon!

With everything that has been going on, I was contemplating selling out. I know, I know! The response I saw from my family was "What?!"...and I thought, if they responded like that, everyone else would really freak out too. Ha! So, no, I am not selling, I am just down sizing my herd some for the  moment.

So, I do have a lot of very nice does available, as well as a couple bucks. You can view them on my sale page.

I also finally got my website updated with new pictures on almost all the bunnies, so check out the site!

Mercedes is one of my younger senior does, who I will be breeding soon :).


Brent is a gorgeous senior buck!


This little girl is out of one of the litters from our red buck. Isn't she beautiful?! She will be going down to southwest Oklahoma to a breeder down there who will be working on the reds.


Brioni is one of my young senior does also. She is downright beautiful!



Angie is another young senior doe who is very nice! I am selling Angie, so check out the for sale page for more about her.


Lamborghini Jr. is such a cutie. He's a young senior buck who has a monster of a head on him. He reminds me so much of his grandma, Lamborghini :).


And Lexus is always a beauty!


Erika is one of just turned senior does. She is out of Krissie and acts *just like her*...such a sweetheart.



This little guy is adorable. Bacardi is my keeper out of one of my litters born in June.



Natasha is another one of my keepers out of my June litters. She is out of Keerah's first litter here. Another favorite.


And I'll close with a funny picture of one of the barn kitties!

I'm still here.....with LOTS of babies :)!

We are still here and the bunnies are all doing FANTASTIC! The weather has been beautiful lately and so unseasonably warm. Praise the Lord!

As  you've probably noticed, blogging has taken the back-burner for a little while here. Life has been busy with just regular ranch & family life, political campaigning (for Ron Paul!) and website jobs. And of course the bunnies as well :).

We have lots of babies in the barn and I'm hoping to get some updated pictures soon by God's grace. We are keeping the lynx and brkn lilac chinchilla out of Kibbles litter. And Kibbles is due this weekend with another litter!

Krissie had a litter of 8 a little over a week ago. She has a huge variety of colors in her litter, which is so fun. Lots of chocolate colors too.

Millie had a litter of 3 on Saturday. 3 FAT babies. She's an awesome mama too. One of the babies is a little broken chocolate also...so fun!

Quadra's & Renee's litters are all ready to be weaned this week to start going to new homes. I need to go do a baby-count to see how many are already accounted for and who is available yet!

Abby's babies are doing good and are of course fat-little-tubs (since she only had 3!). It always seems the nicest of her litter ends up being the biggest one as well. There's no difference with this litter. She has a beautiful broken silver tip'd black steel doe. She's gorgeous. And yep, she'll be staying here!

I've got 5 does bred and due next month, and 4 more does to breed soon.

And guess what the biggest excitement of all is?!!! William, my red buck, FINALLY bred a doe the other day! He's a year old...so it's about time! Hopefully we'll have a litter from William next month and also a litter from Vixie, my red doe. Lord willing....I'm excited at the prospect!!

Well, there's a quick run down of the bunnies. Hopefully I can get some pictures of the babies tomorrow, Lord willing.

Babies, Bunnies & Video!

Okay, well, life has been busy here. I just have not had much time to blog lately...between working on websites and campaigning for Ron Paul, and then just life, it's been busy.

Here are a few pictures of my litters. They are all getting SO big! Kibbles babies are doing great and I am a week overdue for getting their 3 week pictures up on the site. I have them all taken, they just aren't online yet! Quadra's & Renee's babies are all getting big too. And Abby had a nice litter of 3 last week!

Here are a few pictures of Kibbles babies:






I thought this was a funny picture! The cat wasn't too sure what this little thing was checking her out :) (she's good with the bunnies and doesn't bother them).


One of Quadra's babies!


Landon has been getting some exercise time in the x-pen, since he has gained a little too much weight!


I also wanted to share a music video which my sister put together (the song is written and sang by some friends). She did an amazing job!

Something Not Related to Rabbits....RON PAUL for President 2012!

I typically don't post stuff about politics on this blog, but because it's my blog, I can use it as a platform to share about pertinent issues from time to time :).

While politics don't necessarily have anything to do with raising rabbits, the laws our politicians make, and the president we have over our nation greatly affects what we can and cannot do with our daily lives.

With that being said, that is why I feel it is abundantly important to share this on here. I moved to Oklahoma from California because of one overriding issue: Freedom. There is so much more freedom in Oklahoma than California, simply because of the way the politicians make laws (or don't make laws) that hinders us or gives us more freedom.

That is vital to what America stands for, or what it used to stand for. Our freedoms are slowly being taken away. The federal government makes more and more laws which regulate what we can and cannot do. Some of the laws may be "good", but because they are laws which the government does not have the right to make under the Constitution, it slowly undermines personal liberty.

The 2012 election is an important election. Our current President, Barack Obama, is re-running for office. He has done so many things which have continued to destroy our constitution, strip freedoms from Americans and ruin our nation. We do. not. want. to see him in office for another 4 years. It's vital that the GOP bring a candidate against Obama who can defeat him and not just go into office and do more of the same things.

The only candidate running for office who is actually different than Obama and all the other GOP candidates is Texas Congressman Ron Paul. He has been saying the same thing for 30+ years. He is an OB/GYN who has delivered over 4,000 babies. He wants to Restore Freedom to America and he has a PLAN to do so.



Ron Paul wants to:
....restore Freedom to Americans!
....bring our troops home, so that they are not fighting wars which America cannot afford and that are not approved by the people (Congress)
....cut $1 TRILLION dollars in the first year
....repeal ObamaCare
....follow the Constitution and return power to the States and the People. 
....abolish the IRS and Federal Reserve (get rid of taxes!)
....repeal Roe v. Wade
....cut the president's pay to just under $40,000
....make a stronger military
....AND LOTS MORE!!

Visit Ron Paul's 2012 - www.ronpaul2012.com - site for more specific information on the important issues. Ron Paul has a Plan to Restore Freedom to America and everyone needs to read it (click here). You can also visit some of these links to see more on why you should vote for Ron Paul:

www.whyronpaul.com
www.ronpaulflix.com

Ron Paul receives double the amount of donations from active military than all other GOP candidates and Obama combined!!


Here are some videos which I would greatly encourage you to watch. The news media doesn't cover Paul as much as the rest of the candidates, but he is surging! He finished with a strong 3rd place finish in Iowa and a strong 2nd place win in New Hampshire. He is surging in the South Carolina polls right now and has the endorsement of SC Senator Tom Davis. He has the most organized campaign out of all the candidates and a large grassroots movement of people who want their freedom back and want change in big government America!

He is the only voice of hope for America. He will bring back the Constitution. He will restore liberty and freedom to Americans.



A lot of people have questions about Ron Paul's Foreign Policy. He has the strongest Foreign Policy out of all the candidates. People want to say that he is anti-Israel, when in fact, he is the strongest supporter of Israel.



This is an EXCELLENT video on why you should support Ron Paul, if you support our troops.



This video is from a speech Ron Paul gave and it shares his concerns about our current Foreign Policy, and explains his Foreign Policy well.



So, what can YOU do? Spread the word. Share this with people. Join the Ron Paul and Ron Paul Revolution facebook pages, as well as other pages.

Most of all, GET OUT AND VOTE!! 

Vote for Freedom!

Vote Ron Paul 2012!

I will close with a great song, The Light of Revolution, put together by Jordan Page, a Ron Paul supporter. He mentions all the issues very well in this song.

Babies Everywhere!

There are about 40 babies in the barn right now! I'm very thankful for that!!

Quadra just kindled to a litter of 8 big, fat, healthy babies this morning. She has 4 brokens and 4 solids - sired by Donovan (brkn chocolate chinchilla).

Renee kindled to a litter of 6 beautiful babies on the 10th. She has several solid agoutis, several solid selfs or steels and 1 sable chinchilla - sired by Jaxon (sable steel).

Abilene was also due the 12th and she was bred to Lam. But, on the 10th, I found 6 big, fat healthy looking babies all born dead in her box. She had made a nice nest and everything for her babies, I felt so bad for her. I'm very disappointed though because it was my last chance to have anything out of Lam. I think it had something to do with Lam though, as his litter before this one (born in Sept, I believe it was) was also born 2 days early by Krissie and all were dead. Praise the Lord anyways!

But, the rest of the babies and bunnies are doing good!

Kibbles babies are 2 weeks old now and I need to get some updated pictures. These pictures are from about a week ago or so.

She has 1 lynx, 1 brkn lilac chinchilla, 1 brkn chocolate chinchilla, 1 brkn chocolate, and 1 brkn chocolate chestnut. The solid lilac that you see at the top of the picture below passed away unexpectedly this morning (it must've been a fader).


Her 3 little chocolates :)


Her brkn lilac chinchilla. A total cutie.


The brkn chocolate.


I thought I would take a picture of Lam's 3 daughters that I kept from his litters that I had while he was with us.  From L to R (youngest to oldest): Golden Cadillac, Lexus and Millie. All 3 are gorgeous girls.


Here's a recent picture of Lexus. She's a rock-solid beautiful girl, don't ya think?!



And miss Goldie is a beauty also!


Here's a picture of Goldie and Escalade (my one buck out of Lam) next to each other. He's quite a character and it was hard to keep him still in this picture (next to a doe!). His head is still coming in and he's still filling out, but I think he will look just like his dad (except in a different color) when he's fully mature.



That's about all for now!
