Rabbit pictures
We finally took some pictures of our rabbits! Since we currently have 27 kits (baby rabbits) and 13 adults for breeding stock, I only selected a few to put on the page. Don’t worry, we have 2 more rabbits due…
The bucks are here!
Ok, so the bucks actually got here 2 weeks ago, but we finally made some pictures this evening. We got one Oberhasli and one Lamancha (his ears are supposed to look like that). They are young, but will be ready to…
