The Rexes to Texas Move

Random Rabbit · Jan 5, 2012

I'm waiting to hear how OneAcreFarm's new rex rabbits are doing . Hope they are as nice in bunnyperson... as the photos showed. Any news ???

MamaSheepdog · Jan 5, 2012

Well, being as we are virtual sisters, you'd think I would be the first to know. But no... No news. <sob!>

I hope they all make it safely! I would be just hopping in anticipation if it were me. Someday I'd like to be part of a rabbit railroad- how cool would that be?

OneAcreFarm · Jan 5, 2012

Sorry Sistah! (and the rest of you!) I have been SO wrapped up in these beautiful rabbits, that I have not had time to get on here! LOL

Here are some pics...

These are the rabbits that went to Trinity Oaks

These are the rabbits that are going to New Mexico eventually...

These are my beautiful bunnies!

This is me with the rabbits...

This is my Travel Buddy, my Mom, and me!

This is the buck, his name is Dusty but I am calling him Cadbury...

This is the doe, her name is Twist Tie but I am calling her Symphony...

I will get better pics tonight, last night I was so tired after being on the road all day.

There used to be a Yahoo group called Rabbit Railroad. I'm told it is defunct. There IS one called Rabbit Relay ... same idea. It is kinda interesting to read the call-outs to transport... then be able to follow up on it.

The very BEST transport group is the American Drift ! That one is a Wonder to behold !! The planning and logistics are mind-boggeling ! AnnTan of this group ( Rabbit Talk) drove the whole drift last year ! That group worked on only one breed... the American... moving stock around the country to provide genetic diversity for breeders .

With some of the new laws being developed... things like group transports and the Drift may be a thing of the past. *sigh*.... __________ Thu Jan 05, 2012 11:52 am __________

Beautiful bunnies and nice pics of you and your Mom, Sistah! I guess you got the brunette gene- I'm a dirty blond (in more ways than one- bwahaha!)- I love your chocolate bunnies, they are a lovely color.

If the laws get out of hand, we'll just have to make an "underground railroad"! There is no law against exchanges on private property- I bet local feed or pet stores would allow bunny-shifting on their premises. Not as convenient as meeting on the highway, but it is a possible way around these ridiculous laws.

Actually, I started out life as a "tow-headed" youngster...so blonde it was white! Over the years, it has gradually darkened but in the summer I am always a "dirty" blonde too. Just being in the sun does it! I hate the way highlighting changes the texture of my hair, so I don't bother...

MamaSheepdog · Jan 5, 2012

I'm not one to bother changing my appearance, either... although I did bleach it to white blond once, and it was super short! That was fun, I must admit. Mine was the color of Queenpup's and Hubs was a towhead like our boys. Firstpup is growing out of being a towhead though.

My boys were/are the same way! Both towheads and now gradually getting darker. I did the same thing to my hair in college! Bleached it white blonde and cut it super short like a pixie cut....

The eerie parallels continue. I suppose you started your herd in early '11, but had pet bunnies off and on prior to that?

Cattle Cait · Jan 5, 2012

*swoon*

Rexes are beautiful. If only I had the space and attention span for another breed...

MamaSheepdog · Jan 5, 2012

Attention span- bah! Bunny ADD is highly under-rated. Variety is the spice of life, and all that.

So where do we sign up to buy the first available babies out of the Texas Rexas?

OneAcreFarm · Jan 5, 2012

www.oneacrefarmrabbits.com

I will post updates as things progress...these two have blue, black and white in their backgrounds so we should have very colorful nestboxes!
