What a gift!

There are many things in life that put a smile on our face. God gives us these gifts for our enjoyment and to acknowledge his awesome wonder and power that manifests through his creations. I have been told by more than one breeder that Hotots were horrible moms, had DOA litters and were very difficult to get bred. In fact I bought a whole herd because of the above statements (they never had any litters) and was determined not believe it but see for myself what I could do with them. "Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see." Hebrews 11:1

Within 4 months of having these rabbits that never produced for the previous owner, we have had 29 babies born(!!) and two does are currently bred, palp. positive. Astounding. The very same barren rabbits are flourishing in my care. I am so honored that God is blessing our animals and during the sermon today and a verse stuck out..."If you fully obey the LORD you GOD and carefully follow all his commands...The LORD will send a blessing on your barns and on everything you put your hands to." Deut. 28:(1)(8) God is so gracious!
