Well, it is getting hot here in Bunker Hill. I hope everyone is putting ice in water crocks and juicing up those fans. I hate summer--I constantly worry over my bunnies. My biggest goal is to make enough money to someday live on a farm that has an old-fashioned bank barn. Our friend Lynn has a fabulous one that she recently resconstructed. It is always cool, thanks to the thick walls of earth surrounding her hanging cages, and in the winter it is just warm enough. *Sigh* to have a bank barn...
In other news, the last show of the season is being held in Charlestown, WV, hosted by our club, the Blue Ridge Rabbit and Cavy club at the Jefferson County fairgrounds. Since it is getting steamy, we are holding a night show---judging starts at 6 PM in the EVENING! It is just a single show, but it is a long time until fall. Get your show fever on one last time until then! I will be bringing ALL my sale stock to the show. Please email me if interested in a bunny. I do have a first come, first serve list. If you do not contact me soon, the bunny you like may be taken!

I am excited to announce the newest arrivals to Quarry Ridge!!
*Wilson's Athena (Silver Fox Sr. Doe) *Siblings Pierre (Holland Lop Orange Sr. Buck) *Cass' Piaget (Holland Lop Broken Sable Sr. Buck) *BunnyBarn's Java (Holland Lop Seal Jr. Buck) All have settled into life here on the farm quite well. Athena was shy at first, but now has learned that a hand in the cage means food is on the way! Pierre is a striking orange buck--his paws are practically neon orange. His first litter to the dilute carrier TressyMae will be arriving soon--fingers crossed for some interesting colors! Piaget and Java are the pets of the bunch. My little Frenchies,Piaget and Pierre, share a double divided cage. It's cute to see them both beg at the same time. Java the Coffeenut (or as Mom says, Java the Hut) is a very calm little one and his rich color is to die for. Ma won him in a raffle, and when I first heard the words "raffle bunny" out of her mouth I must admit I instantly thought "oh no." But while Java has his weak points, I'd like to try him and see if my super does can clean him up a bit. We shall see! SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT!!! We will be picking up two new additions to the herd at the BRRCC June show. Jessi Jackson has graciously agreed to sell me a self chin/self silver tipped steel doe and one of her herd bucks--A GOLD TIPPED STEEL!!!! I am over the moon! To think that I'll have one of the rarest of Holland colors in the barn! *faint* haha :) |
