2018 Bunny & Tam Breeding

Ridgetop Farm and Garden | Bunny and Tam 2018 Breeding

We just brought Bunny home last summer, so this was our first experience with breeding her. Her coloring is similar to Willow’s, so I was interested to see the similarities and differences between their kids.

Tam’s sire is light buckskin, while his dam is a medium buckskin. Tam also is buckskin.

Bunny’s sire is medium gold with darker moon spots. Her dam has a buckskin and Sundgau combination pattern. Bunny is a cream color that has a bit of a gold tinge to it, with roaning.

Bunny had one buck. He is a light tan with roaning. His coloring is fairly similar to Willow’s solid color kids, except he is a bit more tan than cream.
