rabbit breeding

Last night we headed out to the rabbit barn and bred some rabbits. We were out there well over a hour and I think we got some good matches. We left them together over night too. And the plan is to rebreed the same ones next Saturday to make sure it took. I am so ready to have kits again. I miss having the baby buns! (we really need new ones to sell too)

Also groomed our giant angora Popcorn. She is so pretty, but poor girl gets so knotted. Daryl gave her a trim, but after that she wasn't in the mood for breeding so we will breed her next week.

I was still thinking about getting the Leghorn chicks. After spending the $1000 on fencing the budget is a little low so I will have to see how much they are. Won't hurt to wait a month or so on them. I just get excited when it comes to the chickens and getting a few more was pretty exciting!

Ok...gonna finish up breakfast then head outside with Daryl to start the fence! It is cooler today so we better work hard so we warm up!

Fencing

Yesterday I went with the next door neighbor and I bought fencing. $1000 worth & still do not have it all. Still need 2 rolls of fence and a million metal posts...ok really 60 posts. Today we work on fence and I am thrilled!

Very sad tv show showing the poor conditions of these people and animals. I just do not see how they live this way!

Zaxby's Coop

Today we work on covering Zaxby's coop. We need to let the 3 & 4 month old EE hens out on the ground! The are getting so big and they are blocked into 1 side of the coop. We did that so they could grow up in the coop they were always going to live in. I am sure there will be pics later of the chickens out on the ground!
