Peg's Place - 2009

[TinysMom]

Oh I will....

Today she was so full of herself and seemed to think that the whole house should revolve around her - so I called her a nasty name (of an ex-friend).

I wish you could've seen her face - she went and laid down - I don't think she's used to me yelling at her like that and she knew that whatever it was I'd said...it wasn't nice at all.

Now she's got her head back in the calf manna bag - I have to go take her out of it.

No wonder she's getting so big...

:adorable:love da bunnies!!! ....xtra nose-kisses and ear-rubs please!

 

[TinysMom]

Wow - with all the extra nose rubs and pets these guys and gals are getting - their heads are gonna swell up cause they'll think they're hot stuff!

I am seriously considering taking Nyx and Mercury and Sophia to the flemish specialty show next weekend even if it is 400 miles away....tough decision.

As long as you don't count her peeing on Dave's shirt...

I don't think she'll fit in that carrier anymore either!

I might hide the calf manna in her cage when she comes out for playtime...she'll never suspect it being there....

Good strategy! "Now WHERE did mom hide that stuff...??"

 

[TinysMom]

First news....thanks to her love of calf manna (which she can't find today) - Nyx weighs in at 12 pounds and 4 1/2 ounces....and she's the youngest of the girls! I suspect she's gonna be huge.

:?

Now for some pictures of Athena and Sophia...mostly Athena..

[align=center]If you can't see me...then I can stay out and play...right?
[/align] [align=center]

Sophia: "lay still...darn it... you need your ears cleaned.."

You still can't find me...right?

Look - if I don't want to come out of my cage - I don't want to come out.

What part of "I'm staying in here" don't you understand???

also known as "Life with Nyx"

She sees me going to my chair at my desk and goes running ahead of me and jumps up on it. I didn't realize she jumped on it and try to sit down.....she scoots to the back of the chair while I'm practically falling off the front of the chair to keep from hurting her.

So she gets off the chair and I do my work.

I leave my desk for a bit and come back later to find a big pile of fresh bunny poops on my chair.....a present from guess who...?

:laugh:Tat weel teech u to hidethee deelishush calff manna frum mee!

(The part about you almost falling out of your chair wasn't so funny though)

 

[TinysMom]

I haven't really taken any new pictures lately and not much has been happening.

We're on day 20 of "pregnancy watch" for Athena. I keep going back and forth about if she's pregnant as I'm horrible at palpating. If she is - I would think it is a small litter...(if she has a large litter I'm gonna go shoot myself for not being able to feel them when I try to palpate).

The thing is - she's very very grumpy with me a lot - and yet - sometimes - she's as sweet as can be - as long as it is on her terms. Some of you may read this and say, "Isn't that normal?" but not for her. She even got mad at Sophia tonight and chased her during playtime.

Nyx is....well..she's Nyx. I swear she is part e-lop based upon the things the e-lop owners share. She's constantly wanting to get in my chair and usually she's good - but if I've refused to give her something - I will find a "present" for me in the chair - right where I can see it before sitting down.

Sometimes she'll just come at me and jump to get in my lap for pets - or she'll start pulling on my clothes to get pets. She's definitely the most affectionate of the flemmmies.

And Zeus...I have to share about Zeus. After a month of mostly not letting me near him - he now sleeps beside me again at night and wants me to pet him - and then oftentimes wants me to pet him when I first wake up in the a.m. Today I fell asleep four times - each time I'd wake up - have him nuzzle me for pets- I'd pet him and then fall asleep again - only to wake up and be nuzzled for more pets. Since I had the day off - and he wouldn't let me near him for so long....I didn't mind spending the time with him..

I guess that is all - maybe more later if I get photos done tomorrow.

She's definitely got her parents' sweetness But, you deserve a lot of credit too, Peg. You have continued to nuture that affectionate side of her, and now it just grows right along with her! If she weren't getting anything more than food, water, and a little exercise, she might still be gentle, but I bet she wouldn't be so affectionate. She wouldn't have much reason. You'd just be the person who fills up the food dish and maybe says a couple of words to her each day. But as it is, yougive her companionship, love, praise (maybe a little "discipline"), and LOTS OF appreciation for her unique personality. I'm sure I've said this before, but I'm so glad you have Nyx! She couldn't be more loved or cared for..AND I get to hear her stories on a regular basis I just love knowing that she is like Sweetie and Titan...but with her own little spinon it.

Robin and Art have been hearing noises out in the rabbitry at various times - but I've not been able to hear them - till today.

When the boys are out playing (one at a time)- Nyx sits in her cage and whimpers to get out and be with them to breed with them. She seems to be whimpering at the boys - as if to say, "please help me feel better..".

I'm not SUPPOSED to breed her till February .... poor thing.

I should take a video of her whimpering - it just sounds so sad and so pathetic almost...

It is so funny because when she first came here - I would NOT have called her affectionate. Troublesome...yes. A Toddler ... yes. It was always "No Nyx..not that.." and "Nyx is too quiet...someone check on her."

But over the last couple of weeks - since I've started being a bit more firm with her (yet loving too)- she's started to come around more and become more of a sweetie. She loves it when I pet her and she'll stop her naughtiness if I'll pet her and give her attention.

Anyway - she brings me so much joy - except to hear her whimper now because she wants to breed. I feel so bad for her - I really do. I'm really glad I couldn't hear it with the air conditioner on....I think I would've sat here and cried.
