Oh my goodness, it's been so long raising rabbits that I totally forgot how the cute they looked! They're adorable 😍
I know!!
Trying to get decent pictures for selling goats is always such a pain. It seems like any time I get a great pic of the goat, there's something in the background that makes the pic look junky. Either that, or I get a bunch of pics of nothing but nostrils.😂
Right lol!!
Thank you for the video! Loved seeing the bunnies. That broken black is gorgeous!!! I have a broken blue New Zealand doe I want to breed to my blue buck. Excited to see what they have! Always makes me sad to sell my young goats, praying for good homes for your kids! 😊 God bless!
New babies never get old!!! We have some baby bunnies due tomorrow. I love that you have harlequin! Isn"t sad when the momma's get older?
Yes. Fluffles has been amazing and will retire here. We love her!
@@SageandStoneHomestead I bet her daughters will also be amazing!
Yes! We had a daughter out of her that unfortunately passed the summer before last. She was so sweet just like her mama. If that broken black is a doe we might keep her to replace mama.
Replace mama in the breeding lineup, fluffles will retire soon but I'll give her another few chances to make sure she is done. We don't breed year round so she might have just had a fluke this last time.
@@SageandStoneHomestead Yes!!! I so understand! My Win is that way. She's on the video coming out on Wednesday. I am.anxiously waiting to see how many we get this time.
I'm sorry about Fluffles girl. That's always tough to lose any animal unexpectedly.
Ooo. My mom did that in mini rex. I think they used the harlequin to breed flashy tricolored soft dinner bunnies. They also got into "vienna" markings and eventually solid reds before someone sold them a very expensive snuffles infected show quality bunny and ended it all.
That's the WORST. I remember you telling me about that..how sad.
Baby bunnies and baby goats, always a treat! Thank you for sharing them with us, so excited for upcoming kidding season to see how the breeding went and what all you get, etc. 💚💚
Goodness I cannot WAIT for more mini lamancha
Like always 👍💯 thank you for sharing!!
Thanks for watching! ❤️❤️
I've been loving your daily vlogs girl! You've really got a special farm ❤
Thank you so much!!
Good morning Heather. Oh my gosh, I forgot how small and hairless baby bunnies are.🥰
I wish y’all were closer to central Texas…Daisy is super cute!
She sold tonight! Bittersweet, but she went with Violet!
I just had a first time mother had all babies on cage floor during night in the 20 degree weather. They were large and dead. I was so disappointed first time that has happened since Silver Fox.
Oh I am so sorry!!
@@SageandStoneHomestead thank you just not having much luck with this round of babies. Will rebreed and try again.
Great video. The bunnies are cute. Thank you for sharing. Love and Blessings to you all.
❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏 Doris, Penrith 🇦🇺🦘
Aren't they so adorable?! They grow so fast!
@@SageandStoneHomestead 😃
Good morning and thanks so much for the video! Cute bunnies and I always enjoy seeing the goats.
The rabbits are so cute! I'm expecting a couple litters any day now!
YAY congrats!! So exciting. I need to re-breed my Californian mamas
My 2 bunny liters have their eyes open, so cute! Thank you for today's video Heather, I enjoy them so much!❤
Good morning!
Morning! ❤️🐐
The babies!! I just want to give them all kisses 🥹are you considering keeping any of the bunnies?
We might keep the broken black if it's a female.
I have an honest question…would you as a rabbit breeder, consider putting one of the “runts” with the really small litter in hopes of it getting more milk? Oh…and if I lived closer I’d scoop Violet up in a heartbeat! I’ve loved her since she was born 🤍
We have tried that and they actually do better in a larger litter because those two bunnies will get bigger at a much faster rate than the runt can catch up. Bunnies grow so fast that he would quickly get even more behind in comparison. Larger litters have to spread out the calories more evenly and grow slower than small litters. The runts can be fed separately though and put on mom by themselves to catch up
@@SageandStoneHomestead thanks!
Gorgeous video
❤ 😆 this was one of the cutest episodes! All the babies!
🤩❤️🐐
I can't tell you how much I needed to see baby bunny's. Thank you so much for the morning cuteness. ❤❤❤
My day can start well.
Seeing your children interested in different aspects of the homestead is so cool. What a great way to bring them up!
Am I remembering incorrectly, or did you use to disbud your goats?
I still do! I have a few left still from when I didn't disbud them in the beginning.
This kind of sounds a bit of an odd question, and I may have missed it if you’ve explained it before. But could you explain or talk about your fencing set up, and why you have certain goats in certain groups? I noticed your boys in different groups, so I was just curious about that. Can’t wait to see some kids out of Nefarious. He is gorgeous for being so young. Stay awesome. ❤
I have small bucks and Wethers in the pen next to the does because a larger more mature buck is more likely to test the fence with does right there. After that I put them in groups based on size and aggression. I don't want odious and his horns having the chance to hurt my main bucks so he is never with Havoc or Nefarious if I can help it.
Looking forward every day to your Christmas vlog!
My sister gave me 2 mini lionhead bunnies. She couldn't keep them at her apartment and told me they were both girls and she got them grom a fair that happens only for like a month in the summer. So I kept them as inside bunnies. My kids loved them. They were so cute and friendly. They would even give kisses. So I went in my down stairs basement to do a load of laundry and the bunnies were kept down there. Our basement was partially finished. So I saw the white bunny had alot of her chest hair missing and it was in a corner of the cage. I didn't pay much attention to it at that time I was super busy and forgot about it until doing another load of laundry a few days later I noticed something dead on the basement floor. I screamed I thought we had mice and I know once you have one then you have a problem...lol I worked for Critter control for 2 years and I would manage the office and send the guys out to trap animals and we delt with baiting mice. So when I saw this little pink dead animal I grabbed a rag and picked it up and noticed it's longer back legs and I then realized it was a baby bunny. My husband came down stairs after my scream and I said we had mice and handed the rag over and told him to look at it. He said holy crap how can this be ? We have female bunnies. Then my husband went online to see how to tell the sex of our bunnies. And yes we had a boy and a girl bunny. Then we looked inside the cage and found 2 live baby's and we loved it. We handled them since we found them. We also learned they opened there eyes at 10 days old. My kids would play with them when they were older and I have some great pictures. I would separate the males and females but my kids thought it be funny to put them together so we have more babies and at one time we had like 10 babies and we sold them on facebook for 10 bucks. It was easy they would sell very quick but once my kids didn't want to help me feed them or help with cleaning the cages with me I finally sold all of them. I had 2 part time jobs and then soccer and dance practice I just didn't have the time to tend to them and it was sad to see them go.
Morning Pretty Lady
Good morning, lovely!
The bunnies are adorable!! ❤ You will have to revisit the nests in a few days so we can see them with their hair! Good luck with your sales!!! I'm betting their will be some happy faces for Christmas!!! Baby goats would have to be the perfect gift!!!🎄Thanks for sharing and stay safe!!
All the babies are beautiful. I wish I could have them all. ❤❤❤
Photographing goats is almost impossible 😂
How does the goat meat compare to the venison meat that you have? How would you compare it to lamb? Thank you. We enjoy the very interesting videos. Have a great Christmas season.
We actually did a video on that recently! We love both ruclips.net/video/0bPlO9VjqJM/видео.html
Cute,cute!😊❤
I watched some of your rabbit videos some months ago and I have been giving it some serious thought.
Busy preparing a Flemish giant enclosure with a "hobbit house" set of tunnels and vegetation for a pet for our sheepdog. It is turning out to be a pretty big project, so it will take a few more months to complete / settle all the natural rabbit-friendly vegetation.
But I have been contemplating getting a handful of Californian Whites as meat rabbits. Not so much for our own family. There is a great deal of poverty in the surrounding areas and I would like to donate meat to families with children on a regular basis.
A huge concern for me is that you cannot ship Hopper Poppers to my area. The company does not offer the option because of the shipping costs. I thought about having some custom welding done, but not sure about the dimensions that will ensure an efficient result and not lead to any unnecessary suffering. Would really appreciate any thoughts you may have in this regard 🤞🏻
Look into what's called "the broomstick method". It's the same concept but a different tool that you probably already have! ❤️
baby rabbit is very funny
How do you keep ants from getting your baby bunnies and also have you ever had issues with a momma eating her babies? Thanks!
We have never had an ant problem that's terrifying! The only time I saw a mom eat her babies was a first timer. Sometimes they don't understand what's going on. I give moms 3 chances to get it right
Perhaps I missed it, but who is the adult Lamancha with the wattles and Toggenburg coloring?
Elpis! :) she's a favorite!
She's beautiful!
2-3 weeks to tell gender?
I have a hard time gendering my silver fox kits at 8 weeks
I've gotten pretty good at that young age but I'm still wrong about 15% of the time until they are older, By 8 weeks I can do it but the Californians we deal with most often are bigger than a Silver Fox at that age too (not by much) so that might make it easier.
@SageandStoneHomestead I have to get a magnifying light out lol
Well, I really like your setup, and the rabbits look great!
Where can I see which kids you have available for sale? Thanks!
