Bunny Love & Lawn Maintenance

We have placed the buck and doe together for the delicious purpose of bunny love. Sebastian and BigWig spent the afternoon outside in our very long front grass. Our lawn is rife with dandelions and yet it is excellent rabbit food. Our cage has a pull out tray that gives the bunnies access to the lawn when they are outside. Today they ate our lawn for free and hopefully gained valuable nutrition for the sake of their future copulation. It is cool to know that even our weeds are useful in our little farm. As far as the rabbits are concerned, we have begun our research on slaughter and butchering. In four to six weeks we will have kits and in another six weeks we will have viable meat to harvest. We are excited about not only growing our own produce but our own meat. There are so many other things that are going on this weekend and there will likely be at least another blog.

Sebastian and BigWig are sharing some dandelion and clover (neither of which were intentionally grown in our yard) they also had the pleasure of eating some of our parsley and oregano. Happy bunnies in the afternoon!
