The Bun-Buns Have Left The Building


 Well, the bun-buns graduated sometime Tuesday. They got their jump on and went out a small gap at the top of the pen above the roof on one end. Definitely anticlimactic, but good for them! The whole point was to get them ready, and they were.

Can't say we don't miss them ... Lol, Ray said, "I didn't even get to say goodbye!"

I've been putting kale out for them (both inside and outside of the pen). A full day passed with no action. But this morning, I found a partially eaten piece inside the pen, and a large one on the outside that'd been chewed down to the stock. Score! :)

Bunny Update

Milk ... it does a Bunny good!

I'm happy to say that Eenie, Meenie & Moe are doing great! Happy, healthy and growing by the day!

We've graduated them to days in a pen we made for them outside (we still bring them inside at night), which has them acting a bit more like wild bunnies - as it should be, since we'll release them when their big enough.

Eenie, Meenie & Moe

Here they are Thurs morning, 11/16, in their make-shift nest
My Nana sent me an e-mail about my post on the bunnies, saying how surprised she was I hadn't already brought them all in the house. Ironic. That same morning I'd changed role from observer to Bunny Mama. Does she know me, or what?

After two days with no sign of Mama having visited, I found the littlest two weak and listless on Friday morning. Minutes later, I'd made a quick nest using a gift bag, tissue paper, leaves, grass and clean dryer lint for "fur" and had mixed and warmed powdered kitten formula (left over from Baby-Bunny-Mama-Drama).

I'm happy to say they seem to be doing really well (relief!) ...



Today we decided to get them out for a bit of fresh air and sunshine ...
Moe, Eenie and in the background is Meenie
 I was laying in the grass to get the above shot, when one quickly favored a better location ...

They have a tiny ridge of teeth wanting to come through and, Eenie gummed a bit of grass. How about that? The runt seems to be at the head of his class! I think I'll pick up some kale tomorrow. And a little cage (gift bag, teeth coming in, add two ultra-curious miniature pinschers that we refer to as, "The Thugs" ). Speaking of which! One of them [ahem, Tequila!], woke me up at 3am Saturday. I thought she had to go out, but she really just had a bad case of bunny on the mind. Wasn't so amused at the time.
