Seasons Bleatings! - February 2006
Breeding season has just started in the HMFF Rabbitry!
 
The first matings have taken place , but there are no babies to announce just yet.  I hope to have some happy news in the March newsletter.
 
I have had numerous requests for rabbits since the holidays and regret that I had none to offer you just yet... So, in the meantime, I would like to pass on this opportunity which just came to my attention:
 
 My friend, Linda, who has French Angoras out of many of the same lines as my rabbits, is selling out her rabbitry.  She is selling rabbits and cages... this is a great opportunity to get some top notch breeders.  Contact Linda at littlefarm55@hotmail.com for more information
 
 ABYSINIAN GUINEA PIGS
 
Born 1-13-06   to a solid red sow and spotted boar (from a Texas breeder) Red/white , Red/white, Dun/white ,  White solid
 
 
these are wonderful pets for the kids... easier to handle and do not bite (or smell) like hamsters or mice.
The Abysinian is characterized by multiple "cow-licks" and come in a variety of colors and patterns.  They make the nicest little sounds... kind of reminds me of that old Star Trek episode called "The Trouble with Tribbles"  ... remember that?  They purr and squeak and cuddle and respond well to handling.
 
Will be weaned on Feb. 24th.  $20 each  For more information, contact me at hmffarm@fidnet.com
