R.I.P. Rock Paper Scissors

Yesterday morning, we had to put down WWR Rock Paper Scissors. She was still paralysed in her hind-end, it got to where she couldn't move her front legs cause of her muscles were so weak. She was the same but you can just tell she wasn't going to get any better.

You were a wonderful little rabbit, a bunny who made me still put a lot of my hope into my Agouti herd. You won well. You were really sweet. You were one of my super favorites I ever produced.

Red Bluff, CA Dec 8-9 2007

This show was deffinantly interesting. Not by the people, or wins, but the occurances that were happening.

I'm not going to get into all the "occurances" that had happened, but I'll tell you mine. I'm not going to go into to much detail, I'm not too proud to talk about them...

First, one of my buns decided to fly, and in the process, she has scratched my face. I have very sensitive skin so my face felt like it was swelling and I got all teary eyed. Shortly after, one of my does fractured her spine(not really sure how she did this). One of my best does at that too. We tried getting her to the vet, the only vet around was a small animal clinic, BUT didn't accept rabbits. Never heard of such a thing. So We took her into our local vet today. She seems to be doing better, the fracture really isn't bad. If she has feeling by tomorrow morning she will most likely be okay. I'll keep you all updated. This doe is WWR Rock Paper Scissors, the beautiful little Chestnut agouti who has been appeared MANY times in my blog.

Lets talk about some wins. =]

So, my results were good! That really did make a lot feel better. All judges gave my woolies WONDERFUL comments, I think that was the most important part, all the judges really liked them, it was very well worth the trip for me to receive the comments I did.

Here is a video of Youth BIS Judging on Sunday. Judge is Joey S. My wooly doe "WWR Sisily" recieves Honorable Mention. She was one of only a few who were pulled out again.


I'll get some other "Show Scene" pictures up soon. =]
Thanks for reading.

"Aww, da baybees!"

Babies are growing up here at Wooly World Rabbitry, and the cute stage is kicking in. A line my 19 year brother has always said since he was 17 comes into place. "Aww, da baybees!" A deep low voice he'd say it with with a smile on his face. Augie has always loved my baby rabbits.

Back when he had less hours to work and was home early, he'd catch me around 8 o'clock playing with my bunnies for the night on the couch before its time to put them away. I'd find my brother playing with them, sometimes laying on the couch, talking to them. Theres always that little soft spot in my brothers hard heart of his, a love for animals.

I went outside and took pictures of some of the babies today, and adults. The babies are so cute and some are really promising. I do have a favorite, who is Mew, a REW buck. I didn't do this for long as we do live in "The Windy City" and the wind picked up. Blowing my buns fur all over, hard to take a picture like that.


First we have is Blue Belle X Hamlet babies. Both these two are very promising. Unfortunatley one is a charlie and has no nose marking. Cuter than anything though. I named the REW buck, WWR Mew and the brkn. tort buck is WWR Togepi. These guys are "pokemon". ;) lol.

WWR Togepi- Broken Tort[charlie] Junior Buck



Our Second litter of babies is our Pearl X Hamlet cross. I've named one of these babies so far. The blue do is showable and the two blacks are not. They have white spots on thier bellies, I suppose maybe they are overly marked brokens. They are adorable and sweet though, would make wonderful pets. ;)

Third batch to be born are these two. The pointed white doe is fostered to Cleo, who is a Kipsie X Boulder babies. =) The REW buck is Cleopatra X Hamlet. Yes, Hamlet has been getting the job done around here. ;) Both of these too have cute looks to them, both should be show babies.

Last but not least, we have a Siamese Sable buck by Pop Quiz X Pia. This was a test combo, not really disired for a show quality animal. He doesn't look too bad, though. ;)

Let me know if you would be interested in any of these babies. =) I do have ideas of who I'm keeping now and am not. I'm sure some of these will be pets, such as Togepi and the two blacks.

Lodi, CA 11.24.07

Today was a pretty decent show day. I only brought a few rabbits to show. Two woolies and three fuzzies to be exact.

I'm keeping this post very simple and sweet, I'm tired and really want to go to bad. ;)

Show A JW: I won BOSB with WWR Abbygail. She's my REW Senior Doe whos taken many months to develop. =P I'm very pround of her. She has many many many group wins where shes just needed an extra rabbit or exibitor to win a leg. She finally got her first. ;)

Excuse his bad picture, hes a bit of a table hugger! lol. And the lighting is soo horrible, I'll get a new one up soon!!!

Napa, CA + Fresno, CA shows

Here are a few updates on wins... =)

We attended the Napa, CA show on 10.28.07. I brought 6 woolies and two American Fuzzy Lops. Everybody was just comming out of molts that day, we decided to go because my mom really likes this show. Its a little more calming than usual. In the morning I decided to add on one wooly. As making the add on for show B(after I just done "A") A was targeted by the Mini Rew people. I was trying to do an add on! But did about 5 or 6 other requests for people, add ons, moves, scratches, ear # changes... When I got my wooly added on, I realized everyone was gone, and I fleed the scene. ;) Didn't get far, though. I saw Leslie T. was juding with everyone whatching her checking over their holland lops. "Leslie, you need a clerk?" "Sure, get clerking!" And thats how my day began. Good thing I had arrived early and got all my buns groomed/blown. It's certantly an honor working with Leslie. She is a wonderful judge. =)

I had shown open this day. My mom put all my rabbits on/off the table while I was clerking. Thank you mom! =D

In Show B Hare's Mystic took BOSB.

Now, we have Fresno, CA which was on 11.10.07. I brought 5 woolies and 1 fuzzy. I woke up at 4:00am for this show, and my mom drove me over to Lodi, where lovely Katie R.(Starlite Rabbitry) was comming through and picked me up. Off to another adventure, this time into Central California.

I woke up that morning with no voice. What-so-ever. A faint sound or two may have come out when I said, "Oh, Katie isn't going to belive this!" After warming my voice up, some come out, it was harsh and squeaky. Oh boy, did it hurt to talk when you "Cs" or "Ks". I adjusted. From Lodi CA we took a 2 1/2 hour drive or so down to Fresno. We did good on our driving directions, and Katie had some good natural instincts. We arrived at the show room about 15 till 8:00(am) and paid and went to grab something to eat. We then met our friend, Michael P. or Silent Springs Rabbitry, which has been a long wait and a long time of internet connection. Yay! It was awesome for us to talk with him the whole show, and see his wonderful Mini Lops, which just seem more gorgeous in person. We also got to meet his one and only American Fuzzy Lop!

After a long show day, we did some "pairing" up of Katie's and Jenny + Mary H's Fuzzy Lops. We did some complimenting, looking at the bucks/does that would produce nice babies.

I only did a *little* clerking this show. I was sick, I told my self I was going to relax and take it easy. I only ended up clearking for youth Jersey Woolies. THat was enough. My allergies started acting up then. =P

I took many BOG, and BOSG. I also took BOB and BOSB in show B! Our winners:
BOB- Wooligan's Party Girl

BOSB was Hare's Mistic, pictured above.

We all did great this day. Congrats everyone. =)

A Couple of Cute Babies

A couple days ago I decided to take pictures of some of the current babies. One litter looks big enough for some pictures, the others are still a little small and skiddish. These are our first live White Oak's Blue Belle babies and first litter of Wooligans Hamlet babies.

These two were born on 10.21.07. We have a REW buck(WWR Mew) and a Brkn. Blue Tort who is a charlie due to no nose marking(WWR Togepi). Both have exellent personalities and have the cutest faces I've seen in a while.

I took many many pictures of the two, here are my few favorites of the bunch.

Our Show Winners

We have started the shows back up, after a long 5 months of not attending on single ARBA show. The anticipation had build up and we hit out first show in Stockton, CA 9.18.07.

It was great to see everyone, and see some new faces on the wooly tables. Everyone had some really impressive animals up.

In Woolies, we did fairly well. We had molters, and supposivly the molty woolcap fad is bad in. I brought a couple of does who don't want to be bred so they will get "in the modd" after attending a show. That has always worked for me. =)

Our little chestnut doe WWR RPS had done well her first show. I really like this does type, she is very complete. Both shows at Stockton, she got 1/3. She didn't get shown at Watsonville, as she started molting and still is in a molt. Sorry for this older picture.

LeSage's Shakira was also shown in Stockton. Show A she was 1/4 and BOG. Shakire is in a molt, in her picture. We are currently trying to get some nice babies out of her.

Our Chin buck, WWR Peter has been doing awesome too! This is the longest I've seen his coat ever. Hes a table hugger, so sometimes he doesn't get the best impression. He was 1/5 BOG at Stockton, CA show B. At Watsonville, he was 2/5 specialty. Show A 1/6 BOG.

We had shown 1 Fuzzy at Stockton. This was Kismet's Sia. She took 1/2 BOV show A, and 1/2 BOV, BOSB show B. She is looking cute!

Also, at Watsonville we had only shown 1 AFL. I brought WWR Carley, and Orange one day till senior doe. She placed well. I'm very happy for her.

I'm happy to see Hare's Mystic do well on the tables. He's been moulty for a while but he came back in right in time for the show season! He shown at Watsonville, CA. Specialty show, he was 1/7. Show A, he was 2/7 and show B he was 1/7 again. Two more legs for him! He's at about 8-9 legs now.

Wooligan's Party Girl tagged along to get back in the mood for breeding. Ever since her first litter she lost condition and isn't quite ever back in it since. Result- she doesn't show as well. She did do decent at Stockton and Watsonville. Stockton show A she was 1/1 BOG and show B 1/1 BOSG. Watsonville she was 1/3 BOSG Specialty, show A 1/1 BOSB and show B 1/1 BOG. Hopefully we will have some babies from her soon...

I'm proud of my little REW doe, WWR Abby. She looked decent for both shows, and did pretty well. Stockton she was 2/3 show A and show B 1/3 BOSB. Watsonville show took 2/4 specialty show. Show A 1/4 BOSG and show B 3/4.

Last but not least, WWR Sisily. Shes the cute little AOV who was BOB at Solano County Fair. She is DQ'ed most of her shows for being in "unreconized" variety. She may be a lilac pointed, but I still think she is a black like she was when she was a baby. At Stockton she was 1/1 show A. Show B Watsonville she was 1/2, BOG, and BOSB! Shes a pretty doe. I probably will not show her until her color darkens back up again. Stupid weather. =P
