We have just attempted to breed our rabbits - 2 females with two males. We are hoping that the breeding was a success as we will be looking forward to tender rabbits for Samhain this year! We will be following up our rabbit breeding later on this evening with another session as we think it was a little too warm for one couple, who simply enjoyed a cwtch. I am not sure if rabbits breed in the cooler time of the day, or if they like it hot! Either way, one couple went at it, but a repeat performance this evening can only make things more certain!

Yippee we havehad a week of good buys this week, we have been on the hunt - and when we decide that we want to buy some thing cheaply, we tend to get it for far less than the retail price.
We needed two new females rabbits for our breeding stock, and instead of heading to the local Pets at Home and spending £50 for two - we hunted the local free ads and found two for £10 - what a bargain. I do not like Pets at Home - and have written about them here - http://peapodwine.weebly.com/our-blog/appaling-custoemer-service-pets-at-home We also needed two cages for hte two new rabbits. At £50 each in pets at home, we decided to do our hunt and found them for £25 each in a local DIY shop. However, the trainee on the till only charged us for one. her manager was stood over her shoulder, so I thought she would pick up on the mistake and correct the sale. However, the manager just initialled the reciept and told a strapping young assistant to carry the cages to our car! What a bargain! So now we have two new cages and two new females - we are hoping to start breeding them today! Last video of Simon for a while, and here he is enjoying his bath!
And here is another short clip of a training session with our rehomed German Shepherd. Hope you all enjoy.
Whilst on our theme of talking about Simon, our rehomed German Shepherd, we thought you would like to see some of his training sessions ;) |
