Kicking off this 2016 with a new layout for the website! Followed by our first show of the year on the 23rd in Missoula! I am excited to see what this year has in store and hopefull to start seeing some great improvements, expecially with my Harlequins! Over the past couple months, I have dabbled in the idea of adding a new breed....however I opted to hold back until I can make some better progress with Harlequins first.
I am excited to start out the new year with being able to place some Juniors on the table! Hardly ever have I been able to show any juniors in the first part of the year. Typically I have had only seniors. This year I have held back a good fair amount of Mini Lops, so I am eager to find out how they do. I am also just as equally excited to watch my fall Juniors now show as a senior! The Harlequins on the other hand have given me nothing but frustration! Over the winter I have lost a nice blue doe due to a broken back and my litters have not given me anything really promising marking wise! One Jr mag doe that I did hold back had decent enough markings to show, and then something ate half her ear! Other does refused to take care of litters...and the list goes on. I had honestly thought about given in, and finding something else....but then...what would I learn? Nothing. I suppose when I think about it, this is most likely the same reasons why hardly anyone raises this beautiful breed...therefore, challenge accepted! I have devoted myself to improve on this breed and I will stick with it...through thick and thin! What's New? I will be adding new pages after every show. These pages will include all show information...wins, losses, judges, and entries. I feel as nice as it is to share all my wins, it's equally as important to share my losses as well and the competition level. A Best of Breed win is great....but not fanstastic if it's a Best of Breed out of 10 as it would be out of 50. How can a person display the true caliber of their program if only what is displayed is positive? I have also once again have brought back the waiting list page. If you are looking for something specific or see a breeding line up that you would be interested in a kit from, just fill it out. This brings me to a new page also published with the prospective breeding plans for the new year. Please keep in mind that plans change, so be sure to check back often enough! |
