Official Squatch Watchers

I think he is just digging and knows he is not supposed to. I walked in on him digging his bed and he stopped as soon as he seen me. When I heard him on my bed I got out of the living room recliner and heard him jump off the bed. ... acting all guilty...I hadn't yelled at him yet either time.

Oh, I bet they travel the gray water drain!
I forgot about that, duhhhh.

I used to pack steel wool around pipes when I was living in a can. I probably didn't need to cause I had 2 great mousers but I did it anyway. Adding steel wool to my shopping list cause mice need to NOT come inside.




There are some endangered creatures that once we learn things (things that once seen cannot be unseen) the "endangered" status makes a ton more sense.

SURPRISE!! We got the bunnies mixed up and guess how we found out
I now have four stone cold babies in a bag in a bowl of warm water. Any other suggestions like temp. Od said water?

Henny, if you didn't know better he just looks like he's dancing.
Love their little faces, shame they're perverts.

Sadly, they did not make it. It was her first litter and usually they dont do well. I just wish hubs had said something when he saw it this morning. Honestly, I really dont know why he said he knew about it. He was better off keeping his mouth shut cuz now Im just plain ticked. Not that I really expect anything different. He does stuff like this all the time. Im just glad the kid made it to adulthood.
I will be marking their ears tomorrow and by the time that wears off the tattoo kit i ordered should be here. I will breed her again tomorrow too. After marking their ears. There isnt one bit of difference between these two! They are identical. The san juans are at least a bit different in size. Im marking them too though, just in case. The biology teacher is taking them as snake food so at least they arent wasted. I really hate throwing bodies into the garbage. Theres just something wrong with that. imo

I am sorry Fishy. You tried hard to save them.
While I chose not to breed bunnies we did take in 4 for a friend that was moving out of state. A very few short weeks later we had 14 bunnies. Yeah....they arrived pregnant. It was summer and I did see the fluff pulling going on so made the girls nest boxes quick. I cannot imagine dealing with winter kits.

Whoops They’re sooo cute aren't they? Theres nothing weirder than holding a teeny bun and they magically hop out of your hand seemingly without moving a muscle!
I think the fish trained me for this. When they're sick you really cant do anything but water changes and meds, then just stand back and wait. Its SO hard! and sad when it doesn't work. But, yeah, there really wasn't anything else that could've been done.
Here are pics from our first successful litter from Opal, our standard Rex about 5 years ago.
That poor rabbit! She was in the middle of birthing when mini saw her and completely freaked out. He took her out and put her on our rope hammock! No idea why I put her back and quickly put the little ones into the nest box. We were yelling at each other the hole time . Thankfully 8 out of 10 survived. One was still born and another died a week later. Sadly it was the only broken one, my fave.
