Baby bunny update

This is the baby bunny who survived from the litter born in May this year.  His littermates all ended up dying one way or another.  :-(  I was away and they were falling out of the cage.  Anyway, this little guy looks just like his daddy.

 Chicks continue to grow - I love the variety we got this time.

Farm additions

May was a busy month here on our little farm.  We added 27 new chicks and were able to move them outdoors and then we built an addition and additional run and got them all settled in with the 12 older chickens.

We also got a new bunny "Susan" who actually is Ruby and Max's offspring but the family we had given it to were moving, so we took it back.  "Susan" ends up being a boy!

We are very excited to add a couple of goats to our farm!  Beau and Luke are mixed breed wethers who will be used mainly for brush control.  They are brothers and very sweet.  They are young, so we are bottle feeding them for a bit to ensure they are handled lots.

Doggie Buddy

Carl is growing

Here is an updated pic of our puppy, now 5 months old and almost as tall as Molly. He is looking more houndish in the face, his feet are still quite large and he is very, very active. He has flattened 1 iris bush, 2 hostas, and 1 peony bush so far this year. He LOVES to wrestle with Molly and run and be crazy. He has to stay in his large kennel when we are not outdoors to watch him as he can be pretty destructive with digging and rolling if he isn't being watched. He is very good about not whining or barking while there though, and we are outdoors a lot! He is a sweet boy and still sleeps indoors in his crate at night in Heather's room.
