SA Farm's Kindling thread!

[SA Farm]

Mama is starting to calm down. I've had her since she was a baby, so now that she's gotten over first-time mama panic, she's starting to remember that I'm not a threat
Some pictures from today (6 days old). A little disappointed that I didn't get any brokens, but just thrilled to have reds in general!

Very cute! Interesting how each doe builds their nest.

Babies are doing well. There is one distinct runt and, naturally, it's the darkest red! Litters due next week, so I'll update then, but here are some more pics of the little reds (11 days old) in the meantime.
Eyes are just opening

The reds are doing great! 17 days old and just starting to test out some foods with their mama's approval

Midnight kindled yesterday, on schedule. Her usual 4. Looks like 3 black ones

Tootsie is due tomorrow and her belly is huge! She had 8 last time around, so I'm looking forward to find out what she has in store for me for her second litter!

Tootsie had 9! Looks like 4 of them are Harlequin, which is great as I'm hoping to keep one of them!

Midnight's kits are starting to fur already (3 black and 1 tort) and Cherry's kits are growing fast!

They are adorable!! I'm jealous look at all those colors!

I was going to have just NZWs, but I couldn't handle the lack of colour! I love the other NZ colours and you just can't beat the fur and temperament of the rex

Reds are 3 weeks old today. Midnight's kits are fat, and Tootsie's kits haven't changed much, so I'll take pictures when they start getting some fur

I'm looking for a new buck and I might have to go with something with color
