Tulsa State Fair

Well, sorry for not posting for a long time. We have been really busy for the past few weeks. My oldest sister showed some rabbits at the Tulsa State Fair this past weekend. So, we went to the fair yesterday, it was pretty interesting there. There was one barn there that had tons of rabbits in it, in another barn there were a lot of cows, and in another barn there were many, many boer goats. In the same barn that the rabbits were in there was a mini petting zoo, and on the other side of the petting zoo there was a birthing center. The birthing center was VERY interesting, they had a live dog C-section going on in a room with glass walls and a video on the outside. They also had a section with a few goats and sheep that had birthed at the fair or were still pregnant.

Here are some pictures -

Sad News:(

Well, last month sometime our female brown llama (Peppercorn) died. For a few weeks
before she died we were trying to figure out what was wrong with her, because she was loosing weight and acting weird. The morning she died we let her and Salty, the other female llama, out to pasture. That night they did not come home, so we went looking for them and found them both out in the forest. After they were almost back Peppercorn fell over and started dying:( It was very sad to watch her die. Well, when we got them they both where in with a male llama, and we thought that she might be pregnant. So, after she had died my mom did a necropsy on her to see what was wrong with her, and sure enough she was pregnant with a black little male baby llama. The baby was not all the way developed, so she was not due to give birth for another month or so. Her heart was not in good shape at all.




Have a great day!

Baby Rabbits, and more!!

Well, it has been a little while since I last posted. Everyone has been doing well, and surviving through the heat, it has been VERY hot out here in OK.

We now have 9 meat rabbits, 8 of them are Production Whites (1 adult buck, 1 adult doe, 1 almost 6 week old doe, and the other 5 I do not know if they are bucks or does yet, because they are only 1 day old), and 1 of them is a Champagne meat rabbit (its a doe).

On August 14th, Ms Merritt
kinddled to 9 little baby Production White rabbits. Four of them are alive, and the other 5 died:(  Most likely, the intense heat we have been having played a part in their deaths. The people that we got the Production White rabbits from, usually tries to give her does rest in August and September, because thoughs are the hottest two months of the year usually.

Here is Bubbly our Champagne doe, she is about 4 months old. She is VERY sweet, every time I come to feed her or just come to her cage, she always comes right up to the front of her cage and wants me to pet her. She is supposed to be up eared but, the heat made the one ear go down.
Here are a few pictures of Bubbly ~








I will try to keep you all posted, and try to get some more pictures of things going on up here at the ranch.


Got to go milk and do the rest of the chores!

Have a great day, and don't get heat exohstion!!
