"Some days I honestly feel defeated and like I am doing something wrong.... :idunno" It's not your fault Samantha, please don't do that to yourself! You are caring for your animals, they are well cared for and well loved, and you are trying to figure out what happened. Please please please don't blame yourself, okay? :hugs:hugs:hugs:hugs

Thank you so much. It is super frustrating... Seems like my best rabbits pass away before I get any babies from them and if he is throwing a genetic defect of some sort then I wasted a LOT of money on a really great rabbit that I can not use.... and lost a LOT of money on the feeding side of raising the babies as long as I had.... It is all a little saddening, frustrating, angering and defeating all at once. I am still frustrated over the loss of my broken orange doe, Phoebe...

We added the newest addition, Watson the Broken Opal French Lop Buck, Sunday 9-13. He is an absolute doll. I am in love!

Then after that My nephew, who is 3 months old, and his mommy came to visit and meet the goats and bunnies.:weee He didn't stop staring at Tilda and she didn't stop staring at him. She absolutely adored him!:clap I have pictures but they are too large to upload here. They were absolutely precious together. :love

We also welcomed a litter of 3 live and healthy babies from my one doe out of 7 does bred. She was the only one who took out of 7 does bred, but the other doe who took died before she was due... UGH. Go figure the ONE doe I need to foster babies from because she is not a good mom is the ONLY one who takes.... Yep. I do not have high hopes for them but we will see. As of yesterday she had moved them out of the nest box and into a small hole in her hay that is her cage flooring. (Solid bottom dog kennel) and I could only find two of the three....
