And that buck will show possible colors for every female he's been bred to. He is a very handsome boy and perfect for test breeding for color/pattern. I'm excited for the possibilities!! I would want to breed him to every doe I have. Lol

Wow only thought sharks did that, good to know before we try tomorrow! Thanks Kaye!

Finally stopped raining so I could photograph that we got the rabbit shed posts in yesterday before the storm..

FIY -- deed restrictions are for the duration of the property and can be just about "anything" . One of the weirdest I've seen was a man who sold several small acreage lots which were zoned AG & horses allowed. He had a deed restriction of NO BARNS being built on a lot. Hmmmm.......all valid and always a part of the property from one owner to next. If your property says "trailer" you should be ok with a modular/prebuilt as they come in without the wheels & such as they are not intended to be moved with such.

Something else....in some areas you can find houses that are being sold/demolished for other land use. This can be cost effective depending upon where you live, the distance, route needed for move, etc. Just a thought. Prices generally far less to buy, move, reset than similar new. I have seen them for free if you move it.


Love the buns. Somehow I just think you will have issues when it is time for freezer camp . Many grocery stores do sell rabbit meat, frozen almost always. But, you can cook and taste. I'd say probably as versatile as chicken, about same type recipes, also.

Thanks for that info, I hadn't considered moving an already built home.
Iv ate plenty rabbit growing up. I left dads rabbits alone tho bc his would bite

So the two new NZ have been spending quarantine in my garage. And the female reeeaaally hates the sound of the door opening but the way storage was set up it' was the only way to reach them up until now (I rearranged storage tonight) I noticed that she pulled her fur out. I did get her nesting box when I bought her but she told me they hadnt been bred in months. I'm worried bc I hadn't gotten any nest bedding yet as I'm waiting til paycheck this week...I would think she was used to the garage door by now...hmm

Had to buy some Timothy hay and we just quickly bought some at tsc...Are store bought hay always this finely shredded?? My rabbits keep pulling it out to and since it comes out easier a lot just falls to waste. -----
Last night was first forecast for snow so I had G put two fuzzy socks on each water bottle (thank God I kept all those miss matched socks) and I'm noticing that the new water bottles we got (pin tip that opens at top for free access to pour without disassembling from cage) freezes faster than the ball roller kind..It had ice in it where as the others didn't. Water flowed easily tho so that was nice. I'm glad he took to it as easily as he did..

Ace did great getting his last heartworm treatment. I hated the 2hr drive for his free treatment but he made it worth it. I am still very thankful running across the free clinic event that the Native American group a town over held for the pets bc without it I never would have known. Such a blessing for free treatment bc he quoted me a 500-1500$ price tag depending on severity of which still not guaranteed survival. He had me worried over his sickly look but we actually caught it before major spreading. I am very proud he's got his base condition back and up to his goofy fun loving self again. I love how good a car rider he is too. Maybe more trips are called for.

Also had time to turn my sister's too tight pants into a skirt via scrap material from my aunt. I don't wear pants and quality denim skirts are soooo expensive. Especially ones that don't have slits up past the knee to fix..Saves me soo much money!

Have yoiu ever looked into swap.com? They have jean skirts fornpretty cheap a lot.

 

[mygoldendoe]

Naw I didn't know they had an online thing. Ill have to look into it more.
Our church started holding swaps, but it's still only a twice a year type thing. Atleast these I get are free or no more than 3$. Just thee time and cost of thread, which goes pretty far now that iv been doing it for few years

Finally warm enough to leave the tarps off on one side today. (Other than their ventilation area at bottom)
They spent fri-sun with it down so when I lifted it their expressions were simular to what I'd expect from a vampire lol
Iv lived in Alabama all my life and i still find it baffling that a 35f weekend btwn 70f weeks is normal in winter. Weather is so odd. It's 40f right now (predicted 65 tomorrow) some are hopping round or bathing or sunning lol I think after they adjusted to light they happy to see sunlight after three days shut up under a tarp.

I dropped one of our new water bottles and it cracked. It wasn't even frozen. It was indoors all night and I was taking it out to the rabbits as a switch for frozen one..So mad. I didn't think these new ones would break so easily. ...

one good news is the newer bunny, faith, loves my son's old baby toy. it's keeping her from pulling at her cage. I use sticks for my others but she didn't like them. This one is a good one, she plays with it alot.
