Finding Our Way

Well, we have been raising our Hollands officially for over one solid year.  We had them longer but it has been just over a year since our first litter was born.  We began with the advice of some very good breeders, with a couple of brood does.  Granted our one brood doe did take first place at one of the shows, she was still a little longer than your more typey Hollands, which in turn is better for breeding.  So we bred 2 litters out of each doe to produce our show stock.  So now we are using our show stock for our first round of breedings.  So far I must say I am in love.  Growing them out has it's downs, especially because it is a good solid 3-4 months before you can truly evaluate what you have.  This is our first litter where every single baby looks great!  We are crossing our fingers and have a long road ahead of us but it looks promising.  We are hoping to do a fun photoshoot with them later today.
