Emily Wins Big!

At the GLRCS June 30th double night show our 13 year old daughter Emily took both Youth B4C wins with her English Angoras! In the first show she won with her black Jr. buck "Eragon" and in the 2nd show she won with her chestnut agouti Jr. doe "Arya". These English Angoras are homebred littermates. We definately plan on bringing these rabbits to ARBA Convention in Grand Rapids, MI and we will also be repeating this breeding!

Congratulations Emily! You have worked hard with your EA's and you deserve the win!

All-Breed BIS! My Lovely Black EA Doe

This beautiful black English Angora doe Won us our first all-breed show "Best In Show" this Saturday in Ionia. We couldn't be more thrilled or excited! She is the first colored English I have worked with in some time. At just 6 months old I'm happy with her density and her nice short and cobby body. When she blows her coat I plan to breed her to either our chocolate agouti buck or our chinchilla buck .

4-H Chickens

The girls have been working real hard on their chickens for 4-H. If you are interested in seeing us and our chickens and rabbits this year at fair we show at the Ionia Free Fair. We also have offspring from the chickens you see here available for purchase. 1st- Blue Cochin Bantam Hen 2nd- Mille Fleur Bantam Hen 3rd- Red Pyle Old English Game Rooster Bottom Silver Spangled Hamburg Rooster. We also have White Silky Bantams and Langshans available.

Carpenter's Twiggy

"Twiggy" is a Chocolate Agouti French Angora Sr. Doe from my own breeding. She recently took a BIS at the Michigan Angora Club Spring Specialty under Carla Wilson and a BOG--"Best Of Group" (Like a B4C) at a show in Lapeer MI under Ron Mauck. She is now a Grand Champion! What can I say that the picture doesn't?

I will be plucking this doe down within the next couple of days to get her bred and then ready for ARBA Convention in Oct!

What The Kids Are Working On....

Marina has been working with this stunning Broken Blue French Angora Doe. She has recently been bred to "Carpenter's Ender", a HUGE Chestnut Agouti buck. We are hoping to bring broken pattern FA into our herd again.







This gorgeous Jr. Chocolate Agouti doe is Emily's project. At 4 months old she is a nice compact doe with tons of wool! We expect her to be unstoppable on the show table! Emily will also be showing a Black Jr. buck from similar lines.





This is "Carpenter's Flat Stanley"--a not-so-flat Broken Steel French Lop Sr. Kiley has been working very diligently with him. Stanley has been wowing the judges on the show tables here in MI with BOB wins and a BIS win at the MI State Lop Club Spring Specialty 3/4/07. He recently got his 3rd leg! Kiley has also been working with "Carpenter's Stacey" a Jr. solid Steel doe. Stacey has been following her future mate's lead by taking BOS at the shows. Stacey is a very special little doe to us in that she was raised by our all-time favorite English Angora doe " Persephone" who passed away this Winter. Stacy will always remind us of Percy! Stacey will be old enough to breed to Stanley later this Summer-- We just can't wait!
