Looks to me he's gonna start a running take off and with those ears maybe he thinks he can fly? But then realize's he's to heavy for take off?? lol. Then has to make sure you know he's ok so he gives you kisses.
I've always wanted a Elop since I learned about rabbits. I guess I'll just have to leave through you girls.

Just a short little update (along with some pictures from a few days ago when we cleaned cages!).
The bunnies are doing awesome Minnie is doing fabulous, for all those who are wondeirng. She's completely back to normal Being her silly, stubborn self.
Today it's really nice out, and even though I came home early from school due to a mouth ache (wisdom teeth comin' in) headache & sore throat, I'm gonna train Magic. He hasn't been trained in a while, and he really needs it. We'll just work on small jumps. We're also going to bring out the others for some well-needed exercise
Yesterday I was teaching him how to "spin" and he's getting the hang of it! He was already starting to do it with just the click as a reward, so soon he'll know how to do it really well!
Tomorrow we have a rabbit show; so we've got to pack everything up tonight, get the bunnies (Sage, Ray, Bruce, & Savannah) ready to go. I'm tagging Magic along with us, because Hayley (Hayley411) is going, and so I'm gonna show him to her. lol.
Not taking Minnie cuz I just want her to relax and not be stressed out by anything. We'll take her to the Spring Youth Fair in May, though; and any other show that pop up between now and then, probably.
We're working on getting all the buns in really good coat condition by feeding them black oil sunflower seeds a couple times a week.
We're thinking about breeding Sage sometime this month, so the babies will be about 11 or 12 weeks for the Thurston County Fair at the end of July/beginning of August. Not sure on this yet, we're still deciding.
A couple weeks ago, we rearranged the rabbitry and made more storage room. (Before & After pictures will be up before the weekend is over). We most likely will not even begin to remodel the rabbitry until May or June; we're not even sure we're still going to or not. We are going to be getting some cages from the fairgrounds sometime this month, so more of the bunners will be in wire cages.
We're gonna have to build a stand for those cages, too. So, more rearranging, haha.
Alright, enough blabbing, on to the pictures (these are just some of the ones that I took, since my sister has only uploaded one! Shame, lol.)That is why there are no Savvy pictures
Magic getting some nose rubs.
Bruce modeling the St. Paddy's hat. lol.
It's Minnie! (oh how i hate my camera! It takes the worst indoor pictures ever. )
Minnie again; and yet again another crappy picture from my camera.
Perdy girl, Lils.
Trying to be disaproving.
Hmm... I think she's missing the corset and dress!! She looks like a old-fashioned girl.
Bruce. Of course...I think he needs to marry his food dish. lol.
Magic, Rockin' the hat. He looks like a dancer, lol.
Of course, this wouldn't be a blog without.....
Some silly-ness!!
Hide n Sek "Hehe, you'll never finds me here!"
"Why, yes. I am the Great Oz. What's your point?"
"Sorry, I'm not here's right now."
"I....look....like...DUMBO!"
Raymond has to be the most handsome-est leprechaun!!
Well, I'll update again tomorrow or Sunday with pictures and results from the show!

Well here are the pictures from last Monday (4/6/09)when we took the bunnies out. I still haven't gotten all of mine up yet. Been busy with work and stuff. And I'll try to get the rest up on Wednesday. I have to go to bed earlier now due to getting up earlier for Drivers Ed, so everything is now super time-crunched! lol.
Most of the pictures are mine, and some are Amanda's. She has lots of Sage, because she took them whilst walking her. I was watching the other bunnies, snapping photos AND trying to keep Sippi from causing trouble. lol. So, enjoy!
Lily:
More active without her tunnel.
Look at that dewlap!
Sitting funny to eat grass. lol
Perdy girl.
Soaking up the sunshine
Sleepy.
Bruce:
Doing what he does best...
...giving kisses...
...and grazing on all the...
...delicious grass.
What a cutie! He's so photogenic! I'm entering this picture in the county fair.
Tired from all that grazing, Bruce?
Close-up.
Autumn:
Fun on the harness.
Spoiled by her hus-bun and nephew. lol.
Pretty pose. She looks one-eyed, here. lol.
One of my favourite pictures of her! So pretty! Another county fair entry, maybe?
Something catching her eye.
Disapproving of Savvy bugging her.
So tired.
Magic:
Probably getting ready to dig...like he always does.
Chinning the ground.
I only have two photos of Magic, because the rest wouldn't upload when I tried....
So I will continue the rest of this on Wednesday! And maybe there will be some more pictures to add!?!
I'll be training Magic on Wednesday, so I know there will be some training videos, too.

Here are some jumping videos of Magic from his training session back in March. I think this was the first time I'd actually taken him out and worked him on the course since December. I might've taken him out and let him do some small jumps, but this was the first actual training session! What a long break! lol.
The weather's relatively nice today, so while we clean cages the bunnies are gonna go exercise. I will probably take Magic out and work with him for about 20 minutes.
I'm keeping the jumps on the course small, because the jumps at Spring Youth Fair are like beginner-beginner jumps! That's how little they are. lol. Magic will have no problem jumping them.
The only thing he's gonna have a problem with is actually participating, because he's not used to jumping at a new place; even though this will be his 3rd year at SYF, but his first actual year of competiting - last year I thought he'd injured himself, and the previous year he was just starting out, so didn't even know anything! But I plan to take him out and let him run the floor the mornings of competition so then he can get used to the area. We're allowed to let them out for exercise and so I feel this will be good getting him ready. I'll probably bring a little jump for him to go over a couple times so he gets ready for that, too.
So, here are the videos!
ETA: It might help if I added the last video
The last one is taken from a view I never tried before. You get to see what it looks like from underneath the jump as Magic goes over it. It's actually really cool.

I'm beginning where I left off from the previous update. So these pictures are from 3 weeks ago.
Magic:
Probably kissing Autumn.
Not really sure what he's doing, lol.
Sitting cute for the camera.
So handsome!
Sniffing my knee while I scratch his bottom lol.
Saying 'Hai' to Willow
Relaxing
Magic actually got in time out yesterday when we had the bunnies outside to exercise while we cleaned their cages. I had a top over his cage, but somehow he broke through it and jumped in with Lily. We aren't sure how long he was in there when we saw him, but it couldn't have been for more than a couple of minutes... we were taking some pictures with Sippi. Anyway, when we caught him, he wasn't trying to bred with Lily, just kind of had her pinned down. His uhm...*thing* wasn't out...and he was breathing kind of hard; I'm sure Lily put up a fight and gave him a good workout trying to get to her. We're going to watch her though; I just hope she didn't get pregnant. We're going to start saving some money to get the girls fixed this coming fall after State Fair. We have to do it then, because we use two of the does for showing in pet class in order to actually make it to State. Anyway, until then, we're going to fix our exercise pens and try harder to prevent things like this from happening. We're pretty sure he didn't get her though :expressionless
Anyhoo, on with the blog.
Here are some pictures ofMagic jumping from his lesson a few days ago... I think this was from April 13th or April 14th...my sister took the pictures.
A cool picture my sister got of the jumps and the house, haha.
Mid-Jump; His face is cutoff, and you can't really tell how high the jump is, because the picture was taken to closely :grumpy:
Teeter Time!
Checking out the yarn that I was using to make a make-shift tire jump
I dunno why, but I just thought this picture was really cool. It's of Magic's rear, landing a jump
Two free jumping! videos from April 15th training lesson:
And I know you've all been wanting pictures of Minnie, to see how she's been doing! She's actually been great. The only thing that she hates now, and didn't really care for before the pregnancy, was having her bottom/belly touched. She flinches every direction when you touch it. I don't know why. Maybe she thinks your gonna get her pregnant, haha. She was wanting to breed the other day, though. She raised her butt in the air when I pet her, and she does this humping thing sometimes too. Sorry, Minnie. No more litters for you.
So, here's the perdy girl herself.
Minnie:
Such a pretty girl
"Ahh, nummy grass!"
Looks like she's dancing,
More nummy grass.
Front view.
Rear view.
"Hai, everybunny on RO!"
Giving me a hug & kisses!
More grazing
So pretty in the sunlight
All tuckered out!
My mom petting her.
Sleepy girl!
Falling asleep.
She's such a cutie!
Playing in the tunnel. She had those strings over her ears before I snapped the picture. :biggrin2:Wouldn't she just be so cute with some ribbons in her ears? :nod
More to come! :apollo:
Magic:
lol.

Ok so today we planted the bunnies garden. We had bought seeds first and planted them in little starter things so the plants were about an inch when we put them in today. We have Cilantro, Parsley, Oregeno and of course Carrots.
So here are the garden pics and then the bunny pics!
Before planting.
During.
Again.
And after.
I can't wait until we can harvest it! This will save us lots of money from having to buy our own veggies!
Now on to the bunny pics!
Minnie having fun while we were feeding and cleaning.
And heading back to the rabbitry.
There's actually only one pic of Sippi this time! That is rare!
The cute new daddy, Ray!
Das right I is da daday!
Being shy!
He is just too cute!
Sage Mama
Playing outside while we clean the nest box.
And last but not least, well sorta cuz she is tiny, its Savvy!
Enjoy!!
