Preparing for Milk

Daisy is due to kid any day now so I've got all my supplies organized and ready to go. It makes my little heart glad to think of the wonderful milk that will soon fill those jars...

Much Better


These are Ruby's babies with fur. They are much easier to look at now! The kids are having fun holding them, as you can see...

Da Mama


This is Ruby. Not a great picture but good enough to see how completely adorable she is in real life. There is hope for her babies.data:post.body

Penny


She's the one who lays the eggs. We love her.data:post.body

Babies!


We all breathed a sigh of relief when our Lionhead rabbit named Ruby, gave birth to four little bundles of skin tonight. Well done, Ruby! I'm sure they won't look like aliens forever--don't take it too hard...data:post.body

The Booty


Okay, so I couldn't wait. I had to have at least one hen. Noodle needed a friend. Her name is Penny, and although I have no picture of her yet, I do have a picture of the long awaited first egg that she laid. We are very excited. NO, you don't understand, we (Ezra, Rose, and I) jumped up and down in the freezing cold outside of the chicken coop and gave each other high fives when we found this egg. Can't wait to eat 'em. (There are actually 3 now.)data:post.body
