Babies growing up

Well, no pictures today, don't have the time to go take some and then upload them.
I've gone through two of the dutch litters and sexed them. KItty's didn't survive, so I'm just retiring her and getting her a pet home. As for the HOlland Lops: Skye killed hers like normal, so she's getting rebred, that's the only way to get kits from her is to bred her back after she kills one litter. Angie is about 2 weeks off from her due date with a Fuzzy Lop. Let's see if she produces to him.
Back to my babies, the Dutch:

Robyn's got 3 bucks, and 1 doe(Shamefully) but everyone one of them are awesomely marked, so they should sell well. Naturally I'd get a full litter that looks great when I'm in a spot that I can't really keep any to show first.
Amita's I haven't sexed all of them, but so far one steel is a buck, the other I think is a doe, same thing for the blue-steels, 1 buck, 1 doe. The black I didn't check.
Neena's are still too young to sex properly but 3 Grays(Not steels like I thought) and 3 blacks(Yes I thought there was only five but there's six! One of these days I'll learn to count better) Her Gray children, 2 of them aren't badly marked, I've pulled one of those to keep to start my gray lines, the last is slightly mismarked. the blacks, one has a heart shapped(sorta) black spot on it's shoulders so it's pet quality.

The horses, my gosh Jazz needs a bath, I don't think much more dirt can get into her fur. If it's nice this weekend, I'll get both Jazz and Pheeny bathed. They need it soo badly after the long winter and it's been a long time since Jazz had a bath last, Pheeny I'm sure had one more recently.
