LocoYokel's kindling thread (aka What the ???)

[LocoYokel]

... the galaxy is wondering what happened with Mothership Suki?

Thanks for reminding me! I kept meaning to update Suki's status but did not realize how long it has been!
In other news I have decided to keep the broken kit from Ella and Pookies litter. Purdy sure it's a she... and her name will be Sukitu, if it is a he, just drop the "u". I did NOT have my glasses on... still unsure about the red one. It was the friendliest kit I have ever had until it fell out of the hutch, now it isn't. Still hoping it is a buck but... O yeah!, didn't have my glasses on!
In any case it's name is Clawd, regardless!

As much as I want a second and/or replacement buck from Pookie the Flemish Giant I really do not care for REW's. I haven't even tried to sex those four. Going to run an ad on CL for them again so I guess I should try. Practice, right?

Is food coloring safe to use for an ear marker? I have never had any reason to have to tell one kit from another before, there was always a color or size difference...

Outpost Animalmom: Starbase Barn: Concur that unfortunate Klingon activity hindered completion of Mothership Suki task. Concur another refit/restock and deploy without prejudice.

Reports of verified "permanent" marker application for identification with understanding the identification is not, repeat not permanent. Reports indication mark lasts less than 7 days due to various factors. Outpost's Chief Medical Officer reports no indication of skin irritation with application of marker.

Godspeed Mothership Suki.

Finally! Got all the kits sexed and the does win! Of Tilda's litter only the two large blacks are female, three male. Ella had five females and one male. Of course Ella's boy is REW but I think I might keep him for a while, at least until he is old enough to breed and see what happens from there...
Clawdetta:

Her ears have started to flopsie, not all the time and not always both at the same time. Is there a reason for this? Whatever, I think it is cute!

The Mothership Suki has been recommissioned and has began loading for her fourth mission. Fleet General FurNando is again supervising.

Outpost @animalmom's Chief Medical Officer is to be commended for their research of crew identification tags. This shall now be standard procedure at Starbase Barn.

REW Jr. Doe Green and REW Jr. Doe Purple have been promoted to Outpost Misty for Sr. Doe status. Congratulations to those crewmembers. This Captain has all confidence in their future performance. Outpost Misty will be sending a Jr. Buck officer to add to our own crew here at Starbase Barn when all Mothership dependencies are cleared.

I have some weanlings that ears do this when they get a bit warm. I was concerned b/c it didn't start doing it until after I tattoo'd them.... But then it cooled off for 2 days and her ears are fine.

I have one who has some silly floppy-like ears as well. I do not know the reason. But I think I am going to keep her.

@firedragon1982 maybe it's the heat for me as well? We are in NC. But I would think more of the kits would have the weird ear thing ahhah.

Sold 5 kits this past weekend, now I have the $ to get the proper wire for the floors in my hutches!
Clawd and Suki-tu @ 9 weeks:

 

[HaloRabbits]

They're so cute! I love the different colors. I want more colors in my crew, so now I am breeding unusual colors together to see what I get haha.
My main doe appears black but do to her eye color I know she is a self chin. AND she also hides steel. SO I am slowly learning more about her the more I breed her.
