Spring is coming and I'm really hoping to be able to step up production for the next few months! I hopefully have a few does due to kindle that will get me going and then I want to bring in some more does.

Locket's Woodstock is turning out better than I could have EVER asked for. He's by far one of the best, if not the best, I've ever produced. His first show will be at the NC State Convention in March. He'll be a hardy 4 months old and ready to compete!

I am sad to say that we lost ANR's Kellen due to wool block/bloat. It was a very sad loss for the rabbitry and he will be greatly missed.

That's all for now!

Long time no talk!

Well it's been awhile, and this will be a short post. But just to prove to everyone that I'm still alive....

More changes! American Fuzzy Lops are leaving unfortunately. Still trying to sell the last three. I realized that there is no market for them around here and that there isn't any competition. I don't know what made me want to get them anyways. Just so cute I guess!

Out with the old...in with the new. The Locket Lops family welcomes two new breeds! Castor Mini Rex and BEW and VM Lionheads! We will be keeping a trio of each breed to produce pets and support the pet market. We love these breeds and are happy to have them!

Finally, my Holland Lop herd reduction is complete and I finally have the basis of my new herd. I have brought in three new bucks (ANR's Tait, ANR's Kellen, & Gavin's Jukebox) and two new does (ANR's Brianna and PJ's Athena). I am very happy to have them to restart my herd. I also have some very promising juniors that I hope to use as well. I still have Elliot, Trixy, Eva, and Xena. Everything else has moved on.

Really quickly, I am ever so please to announce that Locket's Evolet (Spring Lake's Eva x Naragon's Elliot) took 1st place Solid Junior Doe in Open at PaSRBA Convention!!! What an accomplishment for my rabbitry! Unfortunately, I did not show her but regardless her placement is outstanding and as an award.....her first leg!!! She took 2nd place in the speciality show and 3rd place at her very first show at the Wade Memorial Show. I can see that this girl is going to go far.

That's all for now.
