I bet you're amazed at how much they're grown! They are now 3 weeks old, but the first 3 photos were taken while they were 2 weeks old. They've reached the stage when they're well developed, and all they do now is just grow bigger! They've all started leaving the nest regularly to explore the shed and bother Pepper for more milk...
This one is Arthur, Caitlyn's favourite. I love this photo because he looks so relaxed. ;-)
We brought the rabbits inside last week and they all had a ball! In this photo they were playing hide and seek and they're all looking for hiding places...
Working together to make a sneaky escape...
At 3 weeks old: Isabella, one of the most adventurous of the litter.
Top to bottom: Cookie, Victoria & Frensky (we renamed Francine). As well as Victoria, we have 2 other kittens called New South Wales & Queensland... Bradley's idea, of course!
Cookie again: everyone agrees that this is by far the cutest of the litter, and we've decided to give her to a very nice lady who wants one of the kits and just gave us a Plush Lop.
Yes, you heard right! A PLUSH LOP!!! YIPPEE!! It's the most exciting thing that's happened to me all year! Not to mention she's just fantastic as a brood doe, has the perfect coat (for what we need), AND has the most perfect colour in the universe! I couldn't have wished for a better rabbit, and I'm super excited about breeding her and adding her awesome colour into our lines. I'm hoping to breed her sometime in the next couple of weeks, if all goes well. Her name's Cinnamon, by the way. We've always wanted to name a rabbit Cinnamon, but before now we've never been able to because every rabbit we breed bears the stud prefix 'Cimarosa' (we're registered as Cimarosa Rabbit Stud, you see), and 'Cimarosa Cinnamon' is a bit of a mouthful. Since this rabbit bears no stud prefix, Cinnamon is the perfect name for her, and is just another reason why she is our dream rabbit! ;-) Thank you, God, for sending her to us, and thank you, Ms. Dee, for your touching generosity!!
P.S. Who's excited about the current political situation? ME! Australia made history today, and I watched it live =P! Everything was so totally unexpected, and I'm so thankful we happened to notice it this morning!!
P.P.S. Can you tell I'm in a very excitable mood today? :P
they are. so. cute. !!!!
ReplyDeleteI especially like the hide-and-seek photos. =)
kittens are adorable =) I love the first few pics; they look so cuddly! Have you named them yet?
ReplyDeleteYour bunnies are so cute! I love baby animals.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you all enjoyed the photos! ;-) I forgot to mention that the first 3 pictures (the best ones, lol!) were taken by Emma and Caitlyn.
ReplyDeleteYes, we have named them. We try to give all of our kittens names for identification purposes, even though we will only have them for a couple more weeks. Since they're only "temporary" names, we come up with some pretty weird ones (we being primarily Bradley and Caitlyn)!! These kittens are named Arthur, Frensky, Isabella, Cookie, Victoria, Queensland and New South Wales. Needless to say, the last 3 names were NOT my idea!! =P
What's wrong with the name Victoria? :)
ReplyDeleteNothing normally, except alongside with New South Wales and Queensland it doesn't seem like a normal name...:P
