I know Nathan and his family from the Hamilton Farmer's Market. Recently Nathan's mom saw a picture I posted of my angora rabbits. She told me her son, Nathan, is looking for a buck to breed with his beautiful angora doe from Pamela Kurst of Dancing Bear Farm. There are not many English angora rabbit breeders around here. Fortunately I have a buck, all the way from Wisconsin, who is perfect for a match with Butterscotch. Nathan and his friend, Tom, brought her over for a date with my buck. We decided to leave Butterscotch overnight, as we did not see a real mating take place. My buck was doing his best but Butterscotch, sweet little thing, is shy. Nathan came back to get his baby, took one look at her and said, "She's a MESS!" Apparently, my buck was working on her through the night. Let's hope Butterscotch was receptive to his advances and will give Nathan a litter of kits in a month's time.
