Dinner rabbits, Journal

[secuono]

Week long temps in the 20s, so bowls went out.


Also, I hate resting mats...They never line up with the floor, poo builds up and the rabbits honestly seem to prefer that....

Coral × G/Vapor
3 are rex, rest regular furred.

Vertical line means not the weight of the same kit.

Malty × Digit


Cruella × G


Tealy × G

This is easier to understand.
Loos like I might cull some Rex, Tealy & all kits. We'll see...
While Cruella kits are all above the 1.5 minimum, with two above the 2 excellent.
Then Malty's SF, there's no chart for 4wk on...but they're all nearly or beyond the 5wk (minimum?) at not even 4wks!

Messed up the age on one litter, but no one caught it. Still most are doing well.

Currently $890 in the green. Minus 76 in new 64oz stainless steel bowls for water. Minus 20 in clear tarp to keep doors open during winter, sun comes in, but wind is blocked out. Minus 44 in magnetic hooks for plastic sheeting. Minus 76 in plastic sheeting for inside of building.

Currently $674 in the green.

13F last night. Suddenly such a cold week! Painting bowls was a waste, peeling already. Oops. New bowls will sit in storage until these meatloaf pans rust out again.

Violent, celibate Dime is gone, so is failed Puff.

4 does got nests. All feel preg, 2 started to make nests.

Every few days, the gfci trips and no lights. Idk wtf it's problem is.



Gilt kits went out permanently.


So did Coral kits.



Quincy kits are next to the doors, so waiting longer before removing their nest.

Been trying to drain the trays, but it's such a disaster! Two layers of hardware cloth gets most of the bigger and adult poops, but not wide enough, unstable and hard to dump afterwards.

Found this bin at Target....hmm, holes may be small enough for baby poos, too! Hoping it's wide enough to really dump trays into it, let drain, then dump into bags. Repeat.

Tanzie supervising.

Quincy having it her way.

How do I keep messing up math? Must of been the icy cold! 63F today, fixed all of the math/ages.
New weights & some pics.

Tealy kits, weight-wise, may have a couple to watch. Shape-wise, others to watch.


Cruella kits. Two excellent weight-wise. Two does and abuck to watch by shape.


Malty kits. Most are excellent weight-wise for both charts.
3.23# doe I'm liking.

Can't really tell if any are any good yet.
