KITS!!!!!!!!

I GOT HOME TODAY READY TO TAKE OUT THE NEST BOX AND GET THE DOE READY TO CULL THIS WEEKEND AND WHAT DO YOU KNOW???

THE NEST BOX HAD A HUGE BALL OF FUR AND WHEN I PULLED IT BACK THERE WERE 6 PRETTY KITS INSIDE!!!

SHE BELIEVED ME WHEN I TOLD HER I WOULD EAT HER.

LAST CHANCE

Well I have a heat lamp under the nest box....


I have lined the box with borrowed fur.....


And she is interested.....


Now if only she can figure out how to deposit the little pink wigglers in the right place.


MORNING UPDATE: This is so frustrating. One dead baby on the wire this morning. And between 5:15 am and 6 am she was furiously building a nest. Now she is just laying there and I am afraid to go to work because If I am here I can at least put them on a heating pad until she is done and then put them in the box and cover them with hay. aaarrrrggghhhh

SPRING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I got out of the truck at 8:15pm. The moon is full. The breeze is warm. I filled a nest box full of pine shavings and straw and put it in the cage with my rabbit named A. Last chance for her. Babies are due on Sunday.

Then I heard it. The frogs were awake!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HOW NOT TO HOMESTEAD

THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU GET GREEDY

COYOTE STEALTH

There is just something freaky about the howl of a coyote 20 feet from the porch were your giant alert dog lays.

This took us both off guard. He roared off the porch and I roared out of my recliner.

So they are beginning to test his sight and hearing limits. This could be bad.

REMEMBER THE SEARS CHRISTMAS CATALOG

YES THE BIG ONE THAT YOU SPENT HOURS CIRCLING THINGS THAT YOU WANTED WHEN YOU WERE LITTLE.....


WELL THIS IS KIND OF LIKE THAT WITH ME....

BAD TIMING 2

Ya gotta love the timing of bad things;

1. As I was getting ready for work, doing my normal daily routine, I found a lump in my breast.

2. Worked 7 am to 9 pm today....got home almost at 10pm only to find that a hot water line had frozen and broke. Who knows how long my water ran but the hot water tank has not shut off since I came home; It doesn't have an off switch and I don't know which breaker is for the tank; I might try experimenting in a bit if it doesnt turn off soon.

fun stuff
