The following does are actively being used in my breeding
program,
a few of them are still showing when their condition is good.
Please note that some of my older show does have also had litters,
but are not listed in this area because it is not their primary use.

Hume's Bayou
Black Sr. Doe
Winnings: 12
legs of G.C.
View pedigree, offspring record or show record
|
Bayou has a beautiful body on her, very round and full.
Her markings are all pretty nice except a little uneven on the cheeks,
but that hasn't stopped her on the show table. She was Best of Breed
winner out of over 300 Dutch at the 2009 Midwest Fall Classic. A very
exciting win for me. Bayou has had a couple of litters, but she will cont
inue to be shown as long as she keeps coming back into condition!

Hume's Freya
Black Sr. Doe
Winnings: 13
legs of G.C.
View pedigree, offspring record or show record
|
Freya is a sharp looking doe with an awesome coat on
her. She has nice type with full, round hindquarters. Her cheeks are high
and she has a dirty neck, but she has still done quite well on the show
table - including a Best in Show win. I have started using her for breeding,
but she is another one that keeps finding her way back onto the show table!

Hume's Lena
Black Sr. Doe
Winnings:
3 legs of G.C.
View pedigree, offspring record or show
record
|
Lena is a compact-bodied doe with good type and
markings. She was never
shown as a junior because I needed seniors to show when she was
only 5 months old. When she was very young, she had an abscess
on her chest
that I thought healed up nicely. Low and behold, one day as a senior
I noticed she has a black spot on her chest. So her show career is
over, but motherhood is her calling, she is a great producer! Even though
she is one of the oldest does in my barn, she always has one of the nicest
coats of fur!

Hume's Big
Bertha
Black Sr. Doe
Winnings:
1 leg of G.C.
View pedigree, offspring record or show record
|
Bertie was born with a GORGEOUS big "buck"
head. Naturally she was dubbed "Big Bertha" or "Bertie" for short.
She has very good markings, excellent leg structure and full hindquarters.
She is one fo the oldest does in the barn and still producing! Unfortunately
she is the last remaining daughter of my Tommy D herdsire in my barn.

Hume's Daphne
Black Sr. Doe
Winnings: 9
legs of G.C.
View pedigree, offspring record or show record
|
I liked Daphne right away. She has great substance to
her body- a good solid bone structure balanced with lovely, compact
type. She has a nice doe head with a good ear on her. She has had a
great show career, but has now retired to motherhood. Her babies tend
to have the same good head and ear with nice bone structure. I am pleasantly
surprised that she throws very nice blues!

Hume's Gwen
Black
Sr. Doe
Winnings:
9 legs of G.C.
View pedigree, offspring record or show record
|
Gwen is a sharp looking doe with beautiful type. Great
hindquarters and solid shoulders. She has nice markings, except a slight
hook into one mouth. Gwen has had an outstanding show career with three
Best in Show wins in three different states. Very proud of this girl! Her
babies have done well on the show table, but she herself keeps finding
her way back to the show table once in awhile!

Hume's Demi
Black Sr. Doe
View pedigree or
offspring
record
|
Demi doesn't have the best markings, but she has a great
head and ear on her and a ncie wide body with good leg structure. I knew
she would never do anything on teh shwo table, but I think she has some
great aspects to her that would make her a good brood doe for someone.
I do have a litter out of her and I just love her daughter. Demi is FOR SALE.

Knieling's KB32 (Scarlett)
Black Sr. Doe
Winnings: 3
legs of G.C.
View pedigree,
offspring record or show record
|
The last thing I needed was another black brood doe, but
I just couldn't pass Scarlett up! Gene Knieling of Oregon put her in the
seller's class at NDS 2010. Her sire is a buck he bought from me and her
dam is a Tommy D doe that I had admired in the seller's class a few years
back. Scarlett has a great body and a slick coat of fur. I think she will
have no problem fitting in with my herd!

Hume's Brit
Blue Sr. Doe
Winnings:
10 legs of G.C.
View pedigree, offspring record or show record
|
Brit is a real pretty girl. She had a strong show career,
and is now a breeding doe. She is one of those rabbits that takes on
both her dam and her sire's best characteristics, and is exactly the
type I look for on my Dutch. Her markings are overall pretty good, one
low cheek. Motherhood suits her, and she is an easy breeder.

Hume's Dove
Blue Sr. Doe
Winnings:
4 legs of G.C.
View pedigree, offspring record or show record
|
Dove is the first really pretty doe I have gotten
out of my favorite blue buck, Blue. She is a very good combination
of her mother and father's traits. Overall well-marked, with good
bone and leg structure. She's done her part on the show table and she
was such a step in the right direction, that she has replaced her mother
as a brood doe. Dove was the dam of the 2010 open NDS BOV Blue winner!

Hume's Destiny
Blue Sr. Doe
Winnings: 2
legs of G.C.
View pedigree, offspring record
or show record
|
Destiny is a big-bodied doe with a great head and
ear on her. She also has a v ery good quality coat on her. She didnt get
much of a show career because I was in such deserate need of blue brood does
that I bred her as soon as she was old enough. I look forward to seeing if
I can combine her width and shoulder structure with the height of my blue
bucks.

B & J's Bubbly
Blue Sr. Doe
Winnings:
1 leg of G.C.
View pedigree, offspring record
or show
record
|
I really needed a new blue brood doe, and I have really
liked the looks of Briony Barnes of Kansas' rabbits. She has had good luck
crossing her line into mine, so I thought I'd try to. Bubbly has some marking
flaws, but she has a lovely topline and a nice shoulder on her, something
I need more of in my blues. I am excited to incorporate her into my herd!
You'll have to excuse her picture, she was over three weeks pregnant and
had put on quite a bit of weight! I will try to get a new one soon.

Hume's Tawny
Gray Sr. Doe
Winnings: 8
legs of G.C.
View pedigree, offspring record or
show record
|
Tawny was my first really nice gray out of my gold/gray
cross. She has beautiful surface color and ring definition. Her topline
is superb, and she has great hindquarters. I wish her head was a little wider,
but other than that I really can't say anything bad about her. She has great
markings and has done excellent on the show table. She is both a brood doe
and she is on the show table when she is in condition!

Blythe/Stelzer
K502 (Rita)
Gray Sr. Doe
Winnings:
Unknown
View pedigree or offspring record
|
I bought "Rita" at the 2006 ARBA Convention from
breeder Rita Stelzer of South Dakota. She is a massive doe that pushes
the weight limit, but she has awesome hindquarters, something my
gray bucks lack. She usually has huge litters and crosses well on
every buck I've bred her to so far. She continually outproduces herself
and throws OUTSTANDING babies both gray and steel (when bred to a black).
In her older age, she is harder to breed, but I don't mind keeping her around
anyway!

Hume's Dora
Gray Sr. Doe
Winnings:
11 legs of G.C.
View pedigree, offspring record or
show record
|
What a beauty Dora is! She is a large bodied
doe with excellent hindquarters like her mother. She has good ring
color, but her surface color seems to have gotten darker with age.
She had an exceptional show career and now has been retired to motherhood.
Dora is registered
with the ARBA. Dora is FOR SALE
- please contact me for
details.

Katie's Dar
Gold Sr. Doe
View pedigree or offspring record
|
I finally decided to toy around with a gold to try to
brighten up and distinguish the bands on my ring color for my grays. Dar
hails from the Bickelhaupt barn in Ohio. She has some major marking flaws,
a tied elbow and two split stops, but her type and gorgeous head make up
for it. She has a wonderful personality and is a favorite for many people.
And her babies are beautiful as well!

Kortbein's K725
(Kortney)
Gray Sr. Doe
Winnings:
Unknown
View pedigree or offspring record
|
I had lost my former Kortbein gray doe, Ginger,
and wanted to replace her with a similar line since I liked it
so much. Theresa Kortbein-Schwandt had this lovely gray doe (I call
her Kortney) for sale at ARBA Convention 2007 and I brought her home.
She's a deep
bodied animal with a lot of substance and bone. I have decided to offer
her FOR SALE because her bloodline is
already so prevalent in my line. She is the dam of NDS 2010 open BOSV Gray!

McKinley's 463G
(Ellen)
Gray Sr. Doe
Winnings: 3
legs of G.C.
View pedigree or offspring record
|
Longtime Michigan breeder, Ed McKinley, was having an
auction to sell his rabbits. Ed is known for his lovely grays, and I wanted
a new gray doe. I had to work, but sent my parents with a strict list of
what to look for in rabbits. They brought me home 3 gray does, and Ellen
was my favorite in body. She is older, but I have had no problem getting
her bred everytime I try! Ellen has 3 legs
recorded by her former owner.

Hume's Goldilocks
Gold Sr. Doe
View pedigree or offspring record
|
Goldilocks is a daughter of my Bickelhaupt doe, Dar. She
has her mother's lovely body, head and ear, but this does is well-marked
as well! She is proven now, and I am willing to sell her, as I do not have the space
for two gold does... And I would have a hard time giving up Dar as she is
one of my favorite brood does!

McKinley's 485G
(Emma)
Gray Sr. Doe
Winnings:
Unknown
View pedigree or offspring record
|
Emma is another doe I got from Ed McKinley's sale. She
is a nice doe overall. Well-marked, nice type and color. She's older,
but an easy breeder. I have been beyond thrilled with her babies; they
are super typey with lovely substance of body and great color. Great head
and ears as well. I am so glad to have been lucky enough to add this doe
to my gray herd!
