Playbuck Hutch!

[Camarie]

Ok! Yes the title of my blog is "PlayBuck Hutch" which is a play on the human "Playboy Mansion". Me and my boyfriend were sitting up one night and was came up with this crazy idea that Jethro was Hue Hefner and Boo and Stormy were his "bunnies" and Salem was his heir since Jethro is old. I thought the idea was positively hilarious and since I have started a blog I would use that as its name. Oh and I forgot I also have 2 guinea pigs named Leia and Spiderpig who are also honoray "bunnies". Well if you read my latests post you would have found out about Moo my male mini lop who was my first bunny and his new home with one of my friends. If you haven't ill post the link here.

Along with the move of Moo to his new home I purchased a new cage for Jethro and Boo.

The Bunnies are doing GREAT! The babies are so sweet and follow me everywhere when I am in my room and they are running around on the floor. Also when I sit on the floor to work on a project or read while they play they love to come up to me and cuddle. Boo and Jethro are doing good too. Boo is slowly accepting the two new babies I think she is a little jelous and ive seen her try to bully the babies and I put her right back in her cage and tell her she can come back out when the babies go back in their cage to nap. The guinea pigs are very interested in the babies they come up to the cage the the babies look into it. Jethro is hard to tell what he thinks of the babies. I think he is just old and tolerates them. When he is out bonding with them he just ignored them and does his own thing. Jethro cant run he has some back leg problems so he will just kinda hop around then fall asleep and i put him back in his cage. I posted a topic in the rabitry section for some flemie help so please if u read this can u go read that i just need some basic questions answered.

<3 Salem, Stormy, Jethro, and Boo!

Today was FUN! I brought in some grass from outside for the rabbits since it is still to hot to let them play in the outside pen. I was also futher bonding Salem and Stormy to Boo and Jethro. Jethro since his age seems to be more of like ok new babies now let me sleep and Boo is more i wanna wrestle. They only have limited time together since the babies are still fragile I dont want Boos rough play to hurt them so once she gets a little wild I put her away till the babies get tired then I let her back out to finish her playtime. I think the babies are at least 1 lbs now lol they have big bellys and all they do is eat. I am waiting for the 8 weeks where they should be 5/6 lbs cause i think thats what Jethro and Boo weigh. Boo is still growing but i know Salem and Stormy will so beat her in weight.

Believe me flemmies grow big quick. I have one kit from my black doe's litter that is almost a pound after two weeks and the others aren't far behind. I am glad to hear everything is going so well.

They are a great breed of rabbit, my favorite.

Today I went shoping and picked up a **** ton of greens for the rabbits. The babies are still gitting freash salads and treats through out the day along with their hay and pellets. Ideas of cages are being thrown around since they need to be built soon. On a non-bunny topic my families great pyraness Lucky is going in today for a groom ill post pics later. Oh I don't know if i have pics of the family dogs posted lol ill do that now.

Here is Lucky! He is a Great Pyraness mix.



Next is Princess and rat terrier.



Last is the Chiuahuahs Chico and Chula!

 

[Wabbitdad12]

Ok so it's supossed to be in the 80's all week so Jethro and Boo have been moved into the outside hutch and they are so enjoying the nice weather. I will keep them outside until the weather gets back into the 90's and the humidity returns. The babies are getting HUGE lol and are doing GREAT. Ill try to get some updated pics today if i get a chance. Ill also get them resexed soon to make sure they are what the breeder said they where. Today is Gay Pride parade in chicago so yay lol i love going down to boys town but this year will be the first tim i miss the parade cause i am busy cleaning and packing for my trip with my bf and his family to wisconsin. Grandma will be looking afer the rabbits while i am gone ill only be gone for 4 days but still i will so missall myfurbabies. My 8 year old cousin is also very interested in getting a pet and taking on the responsiblity but her mommy doesnt like animals so when she has been visting ive been showing her how to take care of the rabbits Boo and Jethro. She will be helping grandma watch those two and grandma alone will be feeding Stormy and Salem. The babies I believe are still too small for my cousin she can be a little rough when petting and Boo and Jethro are more tolerate of her. She also knows she can only pic up Jethro when grandma is watching cause Boo does not like to be picked up she will scratch the **** out of ur arm.
