Hello!

heh. So I suck at posting.






This is going to be our farm blog, I post about more horse related stuff here: http://dangerbunny.blogspot.com/

Things are good, The Smooshy is a year old (where did the time go???) He is super fun, walking, talking and causing trouble. I love looking at pictures from this time last year because he was so tiny (relatively)

Recently my friend, Melissa and I went to our first rabbit show, took two of my Silver Fox kits, they did well. The show was really disorganized and I can't see myself getting super psyched about rabbit shows but it was interesting and the feedback I got on my babies was nice. Came home with three Holland Lops, I love me some Lop ears and since I'm finding the Angora's fur care too time intensive I really wanted a second breed. The Lops are perfect, cute and small with these really engaging personalities, plus the ears just slay me.

We once again have too many roosters, out of my 8 silkies we have 3 hens. I do love my silkies though they have such funny personalities. We have a lot of plans for our chickens this year and I just set up a farm facebook account!


Today I am setting up the incubators, it's a good idea to run them for a bit to stabilize the temperature and work out the kinks before putting precious eggs into them. I think I found some local Silkie hatching eggs and hopefully more Marans since we only got two Roos out of the last batch.

now pictures!
