Gave the little ones some watermelon earlier. They went crazy!! My momma turkey is sitting on some chicken eggs and is perfectly content with it. To her babies are babies.
I have one bantam hen sitting for the second time and her first hatch is getting soooooo big!!! My Serama has 6 babies. Layed 6 eggs, hatched all 6. And now I think she's laying again. I've got baby Australorps everywhere!!
Just sold a rabbit and it payed for the rabbit food. I love when they pay for themselves. I've got 2 litters coming up for sale and 3 of the 10 have curly fur. I have a litter of Holland/English lop babies due October 30th!! I'm very excited about that litter.
I got a new lionhead/dwarf mix that I'm in love with and will be breeding him to my dwarf when he gets older. He is a blue tort with a very nice mane and short ears. He just doesn't have the flat face of the dwarves that I love so much. Maybe they'll take after mom in the face.
I'm also in the process of building more cages!!

Hey...Hey!!...this is "Other than Rabbits Journal"....let's keep it straight!.....:lol: :gig:lol:
Our birds love the melons too....but, I will say the ducks go after it with a bit more vigor than the chickens. I do hope the rabbits turn out as ya wish they would and it is nice when ya can recoup some $$ from them....:)

Our chickens like watermelon but they only get what WE don't eat off each piece and we aren't real generous ;)
When my daughter gets done with it all they have is rinds most of the time

I have baby bantams and half bantam/game hens every where!! Such a good hatch this year!! Mostly hens. My Serama hen laid 6 eggs, hatched 6 chicks, and 5 of them are hens!! And she's the best momma hen on the yard. Now, if only I had a turkey gobbler for my hens I'd be right where I want to be
