A Father-Daughter rabbitry of Satins (Reds & Coppers) and American & American Satins (Golden & Silver solids) and White Crested cavies.

10/20/2026

Every year, the grand champion showmen from each county fair across the state have an opportunity to meet and compete in cavy and rabbit showmanship. This is Elizabeth’s 5th year competing - and she won Grand Champion Cavy showman!! To say we are proud of her (and she’s proud of herself!) is an understatement.

Thanks to Penny Jackson for carrying on this competition for so many years and Congratulations to the other 4-Hers who rounded out the top 5!

Thank you to Mary Lou and Griffin Harrah for recognizing this young Golden Solid sow today as Best of Breed American and then Reserve in Show. Congratulations to Chris Plank for BIS (Texel) and HM (Peruvian) today.

Our black juniors also took Best Junior of Breed in both shows. Can’t wait to see how they grow - should be more competitive at the Christmas Show 🎄

Congratulations to Chuck for BOV and BOSV in reds both shows - with some good comments. Every week I see them set up, they seem to look better!

Today was the Just for Fun rabbit & cavy show and it’s always a great show - and today was no different!

Elizabeth and I showed three times - and did very well. Elizabeth took her first Best of Breed as an open breeder - and in some really tough competition! Thank you to Hannah Dunlap for recognizing her very pretty Golden Solid sow.

She also took a Best Opposite of Breed with her red White Crested boar. Thanks to Kelly Hanson and Griffin Harrah for recognizing him.

We were also recognized with Best Junior of Breed in all 3 shows for Americans and Best Intermediate of Breed Americans in 2 of those shows. Excited to see these little ones when they’re seniors!

Chuck also did very well taking Best of Variety And Opposite Red Satins - it was amazing to see so many reds and multiple breeders! When we got home we took some pictures in the sun - man! Red Satins look gorgeous in the sunlight! Look for some sale posts coming up soon 😉

Once upon a time, a young girl asked if she could take in her friend’s Holland Lop as a pet. Dad and I talked it over and decided that since the rabbit came with all of the stuff it needed we’d let Elizabeth have her own animal.

Her name was Margo. She was maybe 1 or 2 years old at the time. And for a long while she was in Elizabeth’s room. And then our living room. She terrorized Scout by thumping at him if he got too close. She was soft and fluffy and got a ton of loving during Covid when she did school and work with us.

Today, I went down to the cavy room to check on pregnant sows and saw that Margo was taking her last breaths. She had been hopping around normal as can be last night …. So I pulled her out and let her know how much she was loved as she passed. RIP Margo - thank you for the good times and teaching E (and Chuck) what having a rabbit was like 💕

Last week, we had an American litter with a teeny tiny little one weighing in around 50-55 g. He’s been named Prim - and is a little fighter! He’s 99 g now - almost doubled in size. While Prim isn’t the size of his siblings, we’re super happy with his growth and have slowed down supplements to 2-3 times a day. Good thing we have KMR on hand!

Elizabeth and I also judged a county fair last weekend - we both love working with kids and teaching them about their animals. I was honored to have been asked to take a photo with one of the exhibitors and his reserve champion single fryer 💚

Piggie babies everywhere!

On Wednesday, not long after I posted, the dilute solid sow had her pups and so did one of Elizabeth’s White Crested sows (3 total - only 2 with solid white crests)!

The dilute solid, Willow, had 5 pups but lost one GIANT pup. It was literally bigger than the two pups born 10 days before her. She also had one teeny tiny pup. Her name is Prim. I normally don’t name this early but this sweet little thing has been being hand fed by me - she’s a fighter for being so little. Excited to see 2 dilute solids and 2 golden solids in this litter

It honestly never ceases to amaze me how BIG the sows get when pregnant. This little dilute solid is pregnant for her first litter, has started dilating but has a ways to go still and she’s HUGE. Her skin is stretched so tight and I can feel the babies moving and kicking inside. The miracle of life 🥰

I love coming home from a busy day at work and fair and peeking downstairs to see new babies! 😍 Two big babies from KT’s Clove and Leibrand’s Calen. Can’t wait to see how they develop.

And to top it off - they were born on Chuck’s birthday! Happy Birthday to the man of the show, the one who puts up with all our shenanigans, and overall just supports his kids, animals and care of them.

We had 7 sows in breeding and while we knew they were pregnant, we didn’t realize how far along since we’ve been out of country for a Girl Scout trip.

Imagine my surprise when going downstairs this morning! 3 adorable babies - from a silver solid sow and golden solid boar. Loving the heads and ears 😍
