Wow Karen your Hubby did a wonderful job on the Bunny run. Boy whay lucky fur babies you have.

You have such a beautiful BIG yard. I can just imagine how much funyour babies are having while out there.

I was always so careful when I lived in my house to always make sure I was with Buttercup at all times when he was outside in the yard. We had BIG hawks that sat perched on out fence. OMG so many time i'd be chasing them away.

Looking forward to seeing lots of pictures of your clan.

Susan:)


 
I forgot to mention; we have exciting news! 2 new furry little ones are incoming in June!

I made them a page here: http://raisincane.weebly.com/incoming-in-june.html

I'm still waiting on more pictures of the second mixed kit. So excited! I believe the mixed kit is related to Matthias and Atticus, but I don't know for sure yet. After these two girls unless an emergency foster pops up, I think we're done adding to the clan!

This'll make 6 fuzzbutts; 3 boys and 3 girls. Matthias still needs to be neutered, but by the time these girls are old enough to come home he'll be heading in to be fixed and recouping.

I feel excited and crazy adding two new girls, but I think it's the right decision. I tried to explain it to my Other Half that the rabbits are sort of my livelihood...my hobby and constant learning access. They aren't my entire livelihood, but man it gets quiet here during the day.
 
Susan, I totally hear you on the hawks. There are 2 different kinds in my area, one pair of which nests in my backyard. They're always hovering over the house watching my bird feeder. Eek. I can't take my bubs onto the porch without having Troy (my dog) out there with them, or a human. Too scary!

Susan, so glad to hear from you! And thanks for the compliments. My Better Half did do a wonderful job. And we do have lots of fun out there with our fur babies and Jake. Really looking forward to spending as much time outside with all of them. It does my bunnies good. Fresh air and sunshine.

I never leave them unattended either. Have Red Tail Hawks and Falcons in my area too. They love to perch in my Dogwood Tree in the front or my big Maple in the back. But Better Half made sure everything was secure and with the umbrella up there's no flight pattern over the bunny run.

Better believe, will be sharing lots of pic of the Tribe! Again it's great to hear from you again!

Oh Sammy they are both precious!I can't wait to you get them home.

And it's not crazy. Best hobby I found. And such an excellent learning access. Know what you mean by being too quiet. So glad your Other Half is so understanding!

Can't wait to read when they get home!



BTW: speaking of crazy, my Better Half looked at me and said "So when are we getting our Flemish Giant?" Got to love that man! YAY!

Hahahaha, that's fantastic! So when ARE you getting one? :D

Already started looking.lol I don't know whether to rescue or get a baby. It will depend on what sweetie catches my heart. "Bunny Bear" helped with worries about rescues. I like to know their background, but after experiencing the sweetness of this rescue, it's not a big deal any more. I know what to do now.

Awesome. Any preferred colors? I think they're all beautiful in their own way. I think I stray towards the steel colored flemmies. Those ears. Man...those EARS!

:) :D Keep us posted!

Since we already have a black bunny (Kreacher), I would love to get a Grey or even Fawn color. Something different I suppose. But again, doesn't matter.

Better Half can't wait to see this big bunny running around the house. I know Jake will love it too! He plays well with Kreacher (hide and seek) but it always makes me nervous because of Kreacher being our smallest bunny. Dobby and Jake like to lay together on the floor.

Definitely will be interesting!

Will definitely keep all posted!

That is absolutely, 100% awesome!!!! He did an amazing job! And the bunnies all look like they have a blast in there. I think I'm going to steal him to build one for me. haha

Thanks Wendy. Better Half laughed, he appreciates it. I'm just thrilled with the plan he came up with and successfully put in motion for the bunnies. Really looking forward to getting them out, and ourselves out to enjoy the fresh air and sunshine.

Hoping for a nice 3 day weekend so we can putter out there with the buns. Unfortunately we have rain. Know its needed but boy does it suck. Especially for my Better Half. This type of weather just kills his back.

Update on ZRabbits:

I haven't talked about the babies of the Tribe for some bit.

Neville, My Foundation Buck, will be 5 months old tomorrow. Can't believe it's been that long since this little guy came home to our Tribe.

He's done really well. Only one incident which was scary but he's now back to his ole self.

He's grown into such a handsome bunny, with a laid back personality. And he really does look like a lion now.

His Mane is really filling in.

And you can see his skirt which is still really filled out.

Love this pic. Love that little tail. lol

And now that he's loosing his baby fur, you can really see his saddle.

Luna, our Foundation Doe, will be 4 months old on May 29th, and has settled into the Tribe as well. She actually took over. She's our only doe and boy is she different than the boys. Very forward, knows what she wants, and will let you know when she's upset. Never heard a bunny thump so much. And when she pins her ears back, I call it her "Scary Face". She doesn't scare me, nor does she show any aggression. Just mouthy.

She has a ring of hair on her nose. We call this her "Unicorn Horn". You can really see it in this pic.

BUNNYS2138.jpg


She's got such a pretty face.

Plans here are to mate the pair around October. But that all depends if Luna is ready. Will see when the time comes. Looking forward to this phase of their life. Looking forward to see what's in the nest box between these two. This will be a trial run for all of us, to see if this is what we really want to get into. If not, we will just keep the babies and get Neville and Luna neutered/spayed and just continue enjoying our Tribe, with new members. Maybe even get into rescue. Don't know. Which ever path we take, doesn't matter. We are taking our time, enjoying the bunnies. No pressure. All good.

I'm sitting here with my mouth hanging open at how different they look. I guess in my head they've been looking like their first pictures. Wow wow wow. They look amazing!
 
Oh My Goodness Karen they are both so Gorgeous:inlove:. I can hardly wait to se what their babies will look like.

Sure looks like they like the outside.

More pictures please.

Thanks! Being with them every day, even posting the pics, I was amazed at the difference. Especially in Neville's coloring. He always had a LOT of hair, but love the fact that I can see his pretty eyes now. Luna, to me, just got a bit bigger but really fluffed out.

Thanks so much Susan. And I can't wait to see what they both produce too.

They absolutely LOVED being outside. Can't wait to get them out again.

And yes, definitely will be sharing more pics!

Any idea based on their lineage and actual colors what variety of kits they'll have together? I know when we had the Oops litter Matthias is from I tried to figure out what could possibly crop up. They were all black. Every last bub. Bah humbug!

:p

Well, I'm really crossing my fingers for a Chocolate Tort

I could get brokens (Chocolate and Blue)

Torts (Chocolate and Blue)

And since there is Siamease Sable in Luna's background, I could get a black in there, but really not sure. So Black Torts and Black Brokens.

Lots of different variations. But most of all, hoping for healthy kits and healthy Luna after this.
