We have three New Zealand White rabbits now. One buck, two does.<\/p>\n
We got them on Monday of this week. I don’t have all their info as of yet, but should soon, I hope. We have them for breeding\/meat purposes.<\/p>\n
They are very cute, and pretty big. They are 6 to 7 months old, and probably ready for their first breeding attempt, but I’m trying to wait until hubby contacts the guy we got them from for more info on their actuaI l backgrounds. (All I know is that the guy got them for the same reason we have them, but couldn’t keep them afterall. He had researched what to do, but I do not know the actuality of each of the rabbit’s histories.)<\/p>\n
One doe is very active, and forward, has an Extrovert personality for sure. The other doe and the buck both seem very reserved, quite Introverted thus far.<\/p>\n
I haven’t taken any photos of them as of yet. I hope to get that accomplished this weekend. I would have done it today, but was stricken with migraine junk in the middle of the night, blah. It’s just plain bothering me to a horrid degree due to the fact that a mild migraine hangs on despite medication, slightly improving, but never quite totally, and it causes all my sensitivities in this first trimester pregnancy to heighten horribly, so I mostly stay in bed if I can, only getting up to go potty, or walk around a few minutes here or there. Also to take a shower if I’m that miserable enough. As long as I lie about I feel alright enough to exist, but get me up and I start burping and having tummy flips galore from smells, thoughts of raw meat cooking, thinking of having to make dinner, and more. <\/p>\n
So today I stayed in bed and let the children fend for theirselves, which they are more than capable of doing in our small house, and have gotten up in the very late afternoon to get dinner going. But all I was capable of is making Annie’s White Cheddar Shell pasta dinner. Blech. I can’t even stomach the thought of putting it on a plate for them, let alone me. So this is it. I’ll take a couple of cheese thingies from the fridge and trudge upstairs and be able to eat those soon if I get away from the kitchen and into my bed.<\/p>\n
I do so much better on non-migraine days, but still do suffer doing any sort of cooking, having others bring me food works so much better. Hubby is picking up the slack when he’s here, but he’s not always here, like today, he’s in FL and we have to make it on our own.<\/p>\n
So anyhow, the rabbits are cool, I love looking at them and can stand to go outside on a day like today was, the weather and my migraine pregnant ickyness. It was like a lovely spring day (which makes me forget my miseries for a time.) Tomorrow will get cooler and temps get back to “Normal” according to the 15-day Outlook via accuweather. The rabbits won’t mind. I just can’t go barefoot and will have to dress warmer, and don’t mind the cool outside dressed alright. It’s just having to go from warm spring\/summer like-ness for over a week, and suddenly plunge back into Southern late Autumness, a shock, and it’s so easy to dress less for the warm weather, and that makes getting back into dressing for warmth a big pain.<\/p>\n
My hennies, they aren’t laying at all. The Wyandottes did lay some eggs earlier in November, but have quit again, but aren’t loosing feathers. The Australorps are not laying, and some are molting. The other two (hawklady and the bantam) are just not laying either. FWIW Some of them should start up again soon, it’s been long enough, and they are getting light supplementation (in the Australorp pen for awhile already, and now I’ve moved all of them close so they all benefit.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
