...ugh..

Yeah so I was excited a few weeks ago about my convention entry! Now after a couple weeks of crazy weather...they aren't looking so hot. Coats have a choppy look to them...

My best looking Mini Rex right now are my vienna marked ones........a lot of good that does me! LOL Stormwaters looks so gorgeous! I am really looking forward to babies out of her!I am sad to see Koi go but atleast I have Storm to take her place. Also Koi's last litter, though there aren't any BEW they are very nice looking! There is a broken castor doe in there that I hope will remain showable. Now does she carry the vienna gene? I don't know....only a testbreeding will tell.

My new goal is to produce a grand champion vienna carrier doe. I have a buck...iPod Nano but I'd love a doe as well.

All for now!

whats in a name?

Have you ever noticed that some of my rabbit's have links connected to their names? Its because I like people to know what the meaning of a name is. I love useless bits of information so I thought I would share!

My color programs mostly have themes that I pick names from. My whites are obvious... Z names. My BEW all have a blue based theme. My himi are supposed to have asian based themes. Sable Points will be Italian if I ever get anymore. :) Everything else I am more flexible with and just name them names I think sound cool or interesting.

With the offspring out of my King does, I like to think of a name with King in it. I have a Kingston out there and now a Kingpin. Next up is Kingsley and King Me!

I have purchased 4 King rabbits in the past. Now Doug never usually names them...just gives them a number so I do the honors. The first one I paid ALOT of money for. I bid on her in the 24K Auction at Convention in Ft. Worth. I guess the other lady wanted her really bad too. Anyway, she was named King's Ransom. My black doe I got next was named King's Queen and the white doe was King's Mistress because I got them at the same time. Then I got a broken black buck that was lightly marked and these cute black ears. I called him King's Jester!

How do you come up with names for your rabbits? If you have some name ideas for me...just pop over an email! :) qwazirabit@aol.com

P.S. My buck Zit is mentioned in the latest issue of the NMRRC Newsletter! A pic of me, Zit and Rhythm is pictured as well.

Well it looks like my best BEW doe Rhythm & Blues will not be able to make it to this year's ARBA convention. She was just looking too nice and I knew she would go into molt before and I was right! The exact same thing happened last year when I tried to get Windex to convention. Oh well! That is fine...just means I can go ahead and breed her finally! I am going to wait another 1 or 2 weeks to do that. Maybe if she gets pregnant she will stop molting in time? Wishful thinking!

So all my BEW competition can rest easy! LOL But I do have other BEW that aren't too shabby! Game on! May the best blue eyes win! ;)

let's try this!

Hi everyone!

I decided to start a blog because I wanted to be able to write my thoughts about my Mini Rex, my breeding program, showing rabbits, ARBA and the National Mini Rex Rabbit Club. All comments, thoughts and opinions talked about here are solely my own! Hopefully I will have thoughtful things to say but I am sure it will mostly be random utterings! Feel free to comment and anything I disagree with will be immediately deleted! Bwuhahahaha! I have the power!!! LOL Just kidding folks!

Today is the first of October. The first day of the rest of my life!
