Mom, Dad, and silvering babies.

I have a very interesting color sequence coming out from the pair in the title. To clarify I have a pure bred champagne d'argent doe that I bred with an agouti Vienna marked. Buck, partial champagne d'argent. The babies were all brown-eyed. Chestnuts, but show the white forehead blaze of the...

I have to deal with a similar issue. I don't have the patience for a litter #3 chance with her. If she had a better disposition I would, but she's going in the freezer when I return from my dad's funeral in Texas.

Sorry. I didn't connect to the emotional part.

I just reach in and scruff the neck and put them into holding cages and walk them around to my garage. I use an original hopper popper. I clean and gut there. Then I take them to the kitchen to vac seal and pop in one of the freezers. I separate all the meat from the innards (liver, kidney...

I have 4 does, a buck and 40 babies at various stages...I go out twice a day to check, use my cameras if it's raining. I feed/water 1x per day unless the odd dish/bottle is empty.

My Albino meat mutt Doe named Phoebe had 10 kits. 2 passed the first night. One of the 8 survivors is a blue-eyed white. The buck is an vienna marked Agouti. Is BEW desirable and more valuable than the other kits? Doesn't that mean my all white doe is a Vienna carrier?

I had one doe who lost her litter to dystocia (vaginal inertia) and another litter to maternal neglect. All 1st time moms. Should I have expected such heavy casualties? Sad.

Hopefully she has a safe kindling.

Next one due any time now.

This one is so pregnant she's gonna pop.

All alive and kicking

10 kits

Here's the first of 4 pregnant does giving birth.
