Groundhog Day

Here are Tim and Miss Bethy, who are guarding the lambs we've kept back to feed out for the farm market.
These are Maybelline's new Satin Angora kits.  She is red, bred to Gibraltar, a tort, so they will be reds and torts.  May-Bell was feeding them while I was working in the rabbitry.  They are full of milk and sleepy and content in the picture.  May had them yesterday.  Still waiting and hoping for kits from Voodoo.
Well, the sun came out this morning briefly.  We had blue sky and an angry looking thick bank of clouds to the west - reminding me of the eye of a hurricane.  I suppose stupid ol' Buckeye Chuck saw his shadow....
Its very windy here now, and we got lots of rain last night, but no snow or ice.  We may get a dusting of snow today.  I'm just glad for the rain, which melted much of the snow and ice we already have here.

That's a nice chubby looking litter of buns. The dogs are cute too.

Gee, I wish we could see the color of the ground around here. Most of the ice on the trees melted but the thick crust of ice covering the snow makes daily bunny chores a little difficult. WHERE'S SPRING!!! :- 6

What adorable baby bunnies! I hope you'll post more pictures as they grow. We really enjoyed the one litter that Genevieve had. That was a fun spring!
