So I was posing the current Mini Rex kits (Both Ciel's twins and Elmiraj's triple chubs) for some new photos on the website (phone and computer hate each other right now so it might be a while) and took some note on how they looked.
I was a little amazed in myself that I was able to note the downsides to each kit now. I've been learning a lot recently and this was the first time in a while that I posed anyone out (since late June). Doing so, I took note on what I needed in my herd. Depth, shoulders, ears. Excluding Max and even his son for now, the ears go on for miles in my herd. I've learned that it's possible they are all falser than false dwarfs and at least it's likely I won't have any peanuts. I seriously couldn't handle seeing a peanut or hippo baby I'd lose my mind. Ciel's still unnamed blue otter kit keeps wanting to pose like an E-Lop. Or maybe that's just her because she's got long shoulders. Plus I keep hearing that they're little meat bricks, yet most of my guys are as lanky in the bones as a Belgian hare, I feel like. Sometimes I swear Ciel is a Belgian hare! Yes, I understand all of this is very apparent but I'm starting to learn what it all means. And of course I knew my herd was likely pet quality from the start. No, I'm not culling my entire starter herd, either. I'm still learning about this breed and I'm not comfortable investing into a quality herd just yet.

August brings a few much needed updates to the site since Facebook is swiftly declining but I've been way too busy to post in any of my blogs, let alone my Breeder's Blog. So the breeder says in this edition: updates!
