Al's Viola

Vi is our Pedigreed Sr doe, she is a great show doe, we have won quite a few shows with her, she has 1 leg. Her wins are, 3 first places 2 BOB's, 2 BOS, 1 second place, 2 fourth places out of a large class, and one 5th place again out of a large class. Some of her bloodlines are Sire Al's Mathias Dam Al's May Apple. Top Side: Grand Sire Al's Geronimo, Grand Dam Al's Sparkles 2 Grand Champion legs. Bottom Side: Grand Sire Al's Abe 2 Grand Champion legs, Grand Dam Al's Beauty Queen top show quality. Vi gave us 8 healthy kits, we have since weaned them look for them at our local shows in a few weeks.

Vi and her wins, not all are shown because not all shows offer ribbons. Vi will be bred to Al's Classic Guy this coming up Jan, so we will be expecting some great show rabbits in the spring.
Big Momma
She is our Cal doe, she is only half pedigreed on her top side, but she is a great brood doe giving us 9 to 11 kits every time. Big Momma is out of some great 4H show rabbits. Her sire has had his Jr's win for the last 3 years running Grand Champion and the last two years Reserve Grand Champion, so there is some nice show lines in her background. She is a pretty big doe, weighing in at 10.5 lbs. Her background is Top side Sire: Fender's Rocky, Grand Sire: Charley Brown, Grand Dam: Fender's TD. BM gave us 8 healthy kits and we have since weaned them, she gave us our two best show babies, we have bred her to Clark our Tracie Thorp buck, she is due in a few weeks.
Charles Drew Barrymore
Drew is out of some great 4H show stock, her sire is the same as Big Momma, he has produced for the last three years the Grand Champion Meat Pen for Boon County. Drew was one of the Meat Pen that won in 09. Drew was bred to Freddy, and has had 9 kits, they should make some great show rabbits for the future 4H kids in our area. Some of her background is Top side Sire: Fender's Rocky, Grand Sire: Charlie Brown Grand Dam: Fender's TD. Bottom side Dam: Charle's Crystal Grand Sire: Fender's Rocky Grand Dam: Charle's Ruby. Drew gave us 5 kits, and is still with them at this time.

Ethel came to us from the Simmon's rabbitry, thanks Joanie for such a wonderful doe and momma.

Ethel has been bred to Freddy and has given us 6 kits, she has turned out to be a great momma. She made a nice warm nest of her fur and had her kits in the nestbox, she cleaned them all up so she took good care of them. They are all now fat and sassy at 9 days old today. Please excuse the picture she is a chunky girl, she just had her babies and hasn't been able to firm up yet. Ethel gave us 6 big babies, they are ready to be shown, and Ethel is rebred to Clark due any day.
