my goals: to breed chocolate polish, preferably worthy of showing.
I have four bucks... looking at only keeping two.
I have one broken chocolate doe - nicky who other than throwing kits who have a hard to zero ability to kindle, is what I want to breed. She small, nicely tempered, and just a nice rabbit.
I have dusty - broken black who I haven't shown because I don't think she'd compete. She's got width and a so so head. Kylee who is long in the shoulder. Magic is a lovey black, took reserve in rockton I'm told, Jade: brood..huge chocolate doe whom I'm told produces quality kits. Tara a junior broken blue polish who is definitely going to be smaller than momma and I think overall will be decent.
These are what I have for bucks
Mitch: GC, solid black
Rustic: one leg, solid chocolate - love his personality, but he throws funny coloured chocolate kits. Haven't had him long enough to see how they out grow their baby coats.
One who is difficult to get hold still.
Popper: took reserve in Rockton I'm told. Like him. Lovely lad, is somewhat bigger than what I want to breed but he's not huge.
Spice
Technically still a junior, hasn't grown for a month. TINY lad. Sprays unless kept in a certain cage so will be selling...just trying to figure if he's worth breeding from
this lad is CONSTANT motion so trying to get a pic of him is a challenge
So using these bucks.... how do I get what I want to get out of my rabbits. KNOWING that I want to reduce my bucks down to TWO? I don't know how to do it.
Thanks for advice.<br /><br />__________ Mon Feb 13, 2012 10:06 am __________<br /><br />no thought eh?
The other forum suggested breeding everyone to Spice (then selling him) and then keeping Mitch to breed back for type and what not.
That will give me lots of black.. so I need to figure out my chocolate and how to maintain it.
