French Angora & Californian- Jack Frost

[Hens and Roos]

does anyone work with looms and know any good sites to get information from? My SIL came across a table top loom but there was no information with it- the person she got it from said they used it but didn't remember how everything worked. She wants to bring it to me so I can play with it over winter.

Here is what it looks like- the tag reads Structo Artcraft loom....

So we are playing a waiting game- our 3 French Angora does are hopefully bred and will kindle a day or 2 after Christmas. Our tort doe was bred to our broken blue buck; our fawn doe was bred to our chestnut buck and our chinchilla doe(she has been named: Chinzilla ) was bred to our REW buck Our 2 Cali does are hopefully bred and will kindle a day or 2 before Christmas- they are both bred to the same buck.

Added the nest boxes for each of the Cali does- the one doe was carrying hay around under her chin. Once the nest box was added she took most of the hay out of it and was trying to carry it all under her chin!

Due early to mid week next week

This morning when we did chores I took a peak in the 2 Cali doe's nest boxes- nothing happening yet! However, I just went out to the shop to find DH and noticed that Vanilla's cage had hair laying in several places and she was in the nest box!!! Told DH no running tools and to come out of the shop.......we'll see what later today!!!

I'm interested. Did you get any Christmas babies?

Sorry forgot to update, we quickly checked at chore time on Christmas eve and could feel wigglies in the next she built- not sure how many yet as we didn't want to upset her to much given this is her first time. She seems to be doing a good job!

That's wonderful! There's nothing like seeing the fur in the nestbox moving up and down and knowing you have a live litter! Congratulations
