Looks like next Sunday I will be going and picking up a chestnut doe, that she will breed to her orange buck! :mbounce: That should get us a good start to our orange breeding program, if she has a doe or 2.

Never mind 
She emailed me last night. She forgot she has a double show on that Sunday, the only day she will be home is Saturday afternoon. My daughter has a soccer game and my son has a baseball game that day. Hopefully we can work out a different weekend.

Bummer. Hoping to hear a new pick up time has been worked out. Wishing your daughter and your son luck in their soccer and baseball games.

Aww, hopefully you can work it out soon! I loved just walking around her rabbitry and learning from her. She has some GORGEOUS Hollands too. Actually she doesn't have a bad looking rabbit on the property. Keep us posted! I wouldn't mind getting an orange at some point too...
We are having a real conflict of schedules here! She has shows the next 2 Sundays, which Sundays are the only day I can make the 1.5 hour drive with the kids being in school and their sports schedule. Hopefully the 21st will work for her. I am not sure she is wanting to wait that long though, I told her I would be willing to put a deposit down as soon as we set a date.<br /><br />__________ Thu Oct 04, 2012 8:26 am __________<br /><br />Pick up on Sunday is back on!!!!! Her hubby is not going to the show so she is going to have everything ready so all he has to do get her off the porch for me :bunnyhop:
Also cross your everything that she gives me some pretty babies in a month, I'll take 1 or 2 broken orange does please :lol:

Got some new pics of her in a different thread. I must say it was the hardest pick up I have had! Firt we couldnt agree on a day, then we finally set a day, and my daughter ends up with a 102 fever that day so we had to go the following day. :x But we eventually was able to meet and it was a nice drive.
The breeder was really great! She went over a lot of stuff with my son and showed him how to properly pose her. Then she give us an evaluation of the doe, showed us her strong and weak points. I think her and our orange buck are really going to make a good pair! While he has longer thin ears she has nice shrt thick ears, and her problem area is her hindquarters, which my buck happens to have a good butt :lol: I cant wait until she has her babies, November 3rd. She was bred to a really nice looking broken orange buck.

Most of mine are excellent friendly pets, only one of mine is kinda skiddish and flighty but she hadn't been handled at all when I got her. I don't keep bad tempered dwarfs they are strictly culled out of my breeding program. IMO Breeding for good temperament and constant handling since birth is key to friendly dwarf. I find my breeders are kinda wary around strangers but they don't meet many people. My show babies on the other hand are handled by nearly everyone that comes through my front door and normally are the first to come to the cage door.
