I presold 2.... LHHR's EGK1 placed 7th in the National in Youth and won her class the next day, I hope she does well for the Votaw family. I also sold LHHR's Mozzerella to Heather, bred to Stitch so hopefully she carried her litter on the long trip. On our way back Summer left to Vanessa Borquez, bred to Stitch, so hopefully she produces another kick-butt litter!
I purchased a rabbit... yes, yes I did. I didn't find anything I liked of Chris D's rabbits, but I did find one of Kassi's that I liked so I spent the money and brought her home. I think she will add a great deal to my herd.
I attended the Judges Conference... Allen Mesick did a great job in putting it on, all the presenters were amazing and I learned a lot. Gained some tips for when I give my presenation at State Convention.
I bred does on my way back home! woot! Here are the breedings we have coming for National Convention:
LHHR's Maddelyn x ?'s Chocolate - Bred: 4/12 [color litter only]
LHHR's Mia x LHHR's Mason - Bred: 4/12
LHHR's/Velotta's Hera x LHHR's Theodore - Bred: 4/12
LHHR's Kassidy x LHHR's Kenai - Bred: 4/27 [BEW litter only]
