No babies yet! If she's pregnant then they should be showing up tomorrow or the next day! I made a little cubby with my fist in the hay tonight, hoping to encourage her to have them in there. I can feel the heat coming up in there, which is very exciting for me! :) I think I will get up a couple times tonight to check on her.... as much as going out in the freezing cold and pitch black really doesn't sound the .... greatest! ={ But better to be safe than sorry I suppose. :)
Mom and I went shopping today and I found some more dishes at a thrift store. That was great because I broke some plus I have even more rabbits now! And for 2 bucks (the money kind :)) it just doesn't get any better! =) LOL I also got some measuring cups at Walmart. Now mom can have her kitchen measuring cup back that I've been using for nearly a year! haha! :)
I also increased their feed to a 1/2 a cup a day. All the bunnies have been acting SO hungry lately. I think it must be that they are burning more energy due to the COLD! (It was a balmy 11 degrees out this morning!) I will have to watch and make sure they don't start gettin' fat though. :) We'll see how it goes.
Haylie & C.C. (a friend of mine thought of the nick name "CC"... it's easier to say than Chocolate Chip. :)) are doing great. They seem to be adjusting right in. Haylie did get some loose stools when I started switching her feed yesterday but thankfully she seems fine today. Yaaay!
This morning I tried to breed Dolly. My original plan was to breed Dolly next month and breed CC this month... but CC is only 1.6 pounds so I think I will let her get a little bigger. Dolly wasn't willing to be bred this morning, but I think just trying will stimulate her enough that she will be good in the morning tomorrow and I'll try again. :)
Tomorrow I'm hoping to get some cleaning and maintenance stuff done in the rabbitry. I've been so busy things got let go a little bit so I need to do some catching up from the last few days. Nothings that bad, just not orderly and I need to clean up the manure. .... fun! :)
Well, that's all for today! :)
