Finch had her babies..
I went outside around 4:30 today. It look like she just had them. She haves 5. Four dark and One light babies.. She wasnt due until the 15th.. Iam glad that i put her in the hutch yesterday..

The babies are Jersey Wooly and Lionhead.. When i was in Wi in may.. My aunt put finch with my lionhead buck. Because finch was getting to old to breed. I have a thread about this already...


I will take pictures tomorrow, Im giving the momma a break..

Dude. 6 reposts? o.o;

 

[mistyjr]

huh?? :?

 

[mistyjr]

Sorry about that.. I was on my Wii when I posted this thread and it was messing up bad so I logged off and came on the laptop instead.. I didnt know it did that many threads.. Opps:X

But I fixed it.. Thanks for letting me know asap..

LOL. Niiice.

And what DAY was the 15th? Day 30? I know a couple of friends that use day 30 instead of day 28, and then get confused when the rabbit decides to kindle on night 27/morning 28, or even day 29. xD

Day 15th was on Day 31.. My Lionhead had her babies on day 31.. I always count 31 days and put the nesting box on day 28.. But this doe was a surprise to me! But this is first litter and she did very very good. Made a nice big nest and the babies were all warm and moving..

X3

I have a doe (who I'm sadly selling in two weekends) who is insane with her dates. She wants her box on day 27, and usually kindles either that night, or early (3 am or so) that morning.

Then I have another doe who wants to wait as long as she can, so she'll go to day 32 or 33 before having them. LOL.

Congrats on the babies, however.

The only buck that i have right now that is the age.. The buck (daddy) to the newer babies lionheads.. I told you about what happen in Pm!! Briana..:grumpy

 

[mistyjr]

I had the Lion-head Buck to be sold when I was in Wisconsin and I had Finch to be shown in Wisconsin (but that didnt happen).

 

[wooly_queen]

I remember the PM, but I couldn't remember if that was the only buck you had back then too. lol

Gonna be some fugly babies. XD XD XD lol Standard wise for both breeds anyway. lol Probably cute for pets though!

color wise...might be a little wierd. She is out of shaded rabbits so you might get shaded agouti looking things since that buck is a harle/chestnut thingy... XD
Do the dark ones have white ears (inside) to hint that they might be agouti colored? Is the light one just plain pink? it may just be a REW

 

[mistyjr]

See somebody was trying to ask me if she came out of a shaded and i had no clue.. I have a breeder that wants to breed her in July show so I can get some Real Woolies babies...

 

[mistyjr]

We got the tort lionhead buck baby at the show...

But i dont remeber the true colors of the babies.. I just hurry up and peaked at them to see if any dead ones and there wasnt.. I know one was pink and the rest where darker color...

But tomorrow I will take pictures and you can help me with the colors maybe... Like I told somebody also that I will try find good homes for them. And actually they are cutier then the lionhead babies when they were first born except the Harlequin one..:heartbeat:

 

[wooly_queen]

Yeah she is out of a black and a siamese sable. Daddy has mostly siamese sables on his side i believe. A few other random colors. Mama is some blues, rews, and a blue tort. There are a few pointed whites on both sides, but REW's cant pass that on. So that won't happen.

You'll just have to look at her pedigree. I would stick with any solids or shadeds. NO AGOUTI. That might turn out funky. lol but if you get back with the breeder, bring her pedigree with you.

I have told her the colors that she haves.. She said something about the Agouti genes... I will have to ask which buck shes bring to breed with her..

 

[mistyjr]

But she is sure a great momma.. She made the nest very nice and beautiful "white".. The babies were warm but they are sure small conpair to the lion-head babies... They are soo tiny and cute...

 

[wooly_queen]

Her mom and grandma are excellent mothers too. It's in the genes! lol I'm really interested to see how they end up looking.

 

[mistyjr]

Yeah! Me too... They are so tiny and they move more then the LionHead babies did.. I was trying to take their pictures today gosh, I couldnt even hold one in my hands. They were moving so much. I think they were hungry. And It was the smallest one. The bigger one had a full belly but seemed the other ones didnt as much. Gosh! Another Male that is the pig..
