'Shakes and 'Fives

Could you say cute?! I think you can. These two little buggers are almost 6 weeks old now(5 weeks in photos). And I have to admit, both are pretty typey. Handshakes, is a blue fox buck, and Highfives, is a broken fawn doe. I'd have to say, your eyes just gleam when you look at them, the colors are striking.

These two babies did have another sibling... a fox buck who passed away young due to falling out of the nest. I'm sure he would have been just as cute, and everytime I look at these two, I don't forget him. I admit he was a little connecting, for being only 12 days, he was most handled, and what a gorgeous color he was.


Fox buck.

Here is Handshakes:

This is Highfives:



Broken Fawn Doe

Handshakes will be available in the next couple weeks. He is a Blue Fox, which is unshowable but *could* be used for a Fuzzy Otter breeding program. His color may be a little more understandable if I call him a Blue Tort Otter. ;] He's quite colorful! I'll be hanging on to Highfives for a little bit. Though I do have many inquiries on her. =P

I've been busy...

It's hard to keep up with a blog if you don't have a lot of time. Here's a summed up post of whats been going down in wooly town. ;]

...we have baby fuzzies! I rarely ever have live fuzzy babies. =P I've happy to have them, I must say. They are adorable, and have a great personality like daddy. Their sire is Addison and their dam is WWR Carley. We have a broken fawn doe, and a blue fox buck. I decided to name the doe WWR Highfives and the buck WWR Shakes.

WWR Highfives and WWR Handshakes at 3.5 weeks.

...we have juniors growing up! The just hit the ugly stage about 1.5 weeks ago. Here is fresh pictures of them just right before that. I did show them at Santa Rosa, CA yesterday, they got very promising comments. I'm going to grow them out now.

WWR Hanna Beth- Blue Pointed White Junior Doe- She has nice type! A little long in her head, but I think she will grow into it. Very nice point color.


WWR Drunky Brewster- REW Junior Buck- He's also a cutie pie! He is VERY small. I love his short open ears.


WWR Mew- REW Junior Buck- My favorite of the three, he is very complete throughout. Very nice coat!


WWR Gambler- Black Junior Buck- This guy is FOR SALE. He has awesome body type and nice wool. Baby head and ears on him. Email me for more information.

Other than the juniors we have a couple maturing seniors! This is WWR Sleeptalker. He is a Black Senior Buck by WWR Sleepwalker X WWR Pearl. He is our third generation of a WWR rabbit. I have to say, I'm quite proud of him! I'm anxiously awaiting babies from him, which would make a 4th generation baby, hopefully with wonderful type like himself.

WWR Sleeptalker, he's a huge of wooly goodness.

I pulled out his mother today, and she has a BEAUTIFUL coat! It's the longest I've ever seen and one of the best I've ever felt. I'm going to condition her some and show her at Stockton and Cloverdale. =]

WWR Pearl- Black Senior Doe- This picture does her no justice. She is absolutely beautiful.

At Santa Rosa, Show A Fuzzy Lops, we took home BOSB with Hobb's Meena! This will be her second leg.

Hobb's Meena- Broken Orange Senior Doe

Also, I'd like to thank Margot and Thea for selling my mom this beautiful girl. She is absolutely beautiful. This squirrel doe comes out of one of our bucks, WWR Drangonflower.



I think that is it for now! I'm going to try and set aside some more time to manage my blog, oh, how good that would be. ;]

Thanks for reading!

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.

It just wasn't meant to be... ='[

Thank you everybody for your help and advice you have given me, those who stood by me, gave me hope, thoughts, and prayers, everybody who gave me words of encouragement, those who checked op on her progess, the sorrys that were not your fault, special thank you to my mother, and Dr. Ted Shultz. <3

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. =]

"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 Mew- REW Junior Buck


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. ;)


WWR Black Junior Doe, WWR Hanna Beth- Blue Junior Doe, WWR Black Junior Buck


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.


Left: Blue Pointed White Doe by Boulder X Kipsie
Right: REW Bcuk by Hamlet X Cleopatra

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. ;)


Show B JW: I won BOB with my new Shaded Senior Buck, Thumperhill's Ammadon. This is his granding out leg. I'm happy he did well. I honestly can't wait to get some babies from him. 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!!!


In Show B AFL: Addison won 2/6. Yay. Theres a little story behind this, I'll just say I'll re-tatt him for a better win next time! lol.


Until next time, may your bunnies be wonderful winners. See everyone in Red Bluff!

*Stockton, CA show pictures comming 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. =)
