Freckles is trying to make a nest in her poop corner. Gross.
The other two pulled hair, one in the nest, the other everywhere.
Those rexs are always trying to eat what's near their cage. Dog fur included. Lol

$350 in the red. Plus 2 in bun sales.
Currently $330 in the red.
Sold today.
Sold yesterday.
Rest being culled tomorrow. Forgot my knife for the hides, so couldn't do it this morning.
Freckles moved the hay back to the nest, after I put a towel over it. No fur yet.
Others, no kits yet.

The Rex buck. He's a feed dumper, so I've been trying things to stop it. But still almost 7# at almost 14wks.
He finally sat pretty for me.
And decided to keep the broken tort doe & cull this one.

Still no kits. Oh, I guess it's because it's only day 30....wow, rain the last 2 days has really messed with my sense of time. Heh...
Idk how I keep forgetting how disgusting rabbits really are. One way or another, the rabbit building will be heated next year and I'll never use crocks and bowls again!
Ffs, nasty buggars. Even the adults stomp, pee & poo in their water. Kits swim, then sit in the food, pooping & peeing in it & on each other. Bloody disgusting.
Cleaning & drying everything plus kits every day is absurd.
Ordered 6 3.5" jfeeders and 5 11.5" jfeeders. The long feeders will be in cages where I'll move large litters to. Then remove mom when weaning. Hoping that helps the piling at the 3.5" feeder. Even with extended hoppers to keep it full overnight, the gross kits clog it and I have to clear it out. So they "go without" food because of their ickyness. Small feeders are to replace the crocks some have and to redo a stacker as a buck condo unit. It should help free up some space. Plus, I like them in one area, having randomly all around the bottom row is annoying.
$330 in the red. Minus $74 in jfeeders.
Bass was $10 cheaper in shipping!
But then plus $4 in dogfood.
$400 in the red.

Doing family trees with Vs, and noticed Rusty doesn't have a replacement yet?? She failed to kit last time, but doesn't look like I rebred her. And doesn't look like I kept any kits previously? Hmm...
Should of continued to do it in pencil so I could erase and redo it neatly once I have them all laid out...

Searched for her and she did have them! Dec 1st, I just didn't put them on the cage charts or make a mini card yet!
*phew!*

Funny how fast the brain panics and thinks things into non-existence.
Looks like 1 buck & doe are biggest, buck being bigger.
Moved to bigger cage and lined up 4 feeders. Staying a bit cleaner now! Still sitting in them, of course, but water is further away and mom usually naps between both, acting like a mud mat.
Freckles pulled a bunch of fur, tons, last night. Hoping there's warm kits this morning!
*sigh* I really need to stop breeding to more than one buck. And for the most part, I have, but apparently, I forgot about my new rule when I was breeding Tanya...
Tanya kits, bred to baymax & swirl.
Got opal kit(s). How?? Not possible without a shaded. Forgot about Swirl, a black tort.
So how is it rex furred??
Speckle dam, mom sf, but dad was that NZ/Rex mix, recessive genes!
At least I'm starting to absorb the color gene info!

Started finishing off 2 more nests, as I'll need a ton of them soon!
Will probably use cardboard boxes for one or two does in the cages. Idk if I have enough hanging hooks, might need to buy more.
I put the nests on the tops of cages or on the ground in front. Helps keep track of who gets the nest. Sometimes I think I need mini name cards and tuck them into the nests vs moving them. Ah well.
Moved the foster to Unity's nest.

Freckles had 9 kits. Cinder sire.
She kept jumping into nest, stomping them. Had to take them all out, redo nest to off side and close it off while I fed n watered everyone.
Poor screaming babies.

I found something at Bass. I wonder if big 2 liter bottles could be attached to them for gravity auto refill. 
Had to ask FB to find real info on them.
