Snow and other stuff

Well, we finally got snow that stuck longer than a day. Be nice if it leaves, but considering it is November I imagine it will be here until spring now. Kinda wish that it had put off a little longer, but I guess I should be happy with how long it did put off.

I'm not going to make it to the Grande Prairie dog show now, Laura-ann isn't sure if they are going and I have homework to do. I start my Advanced Level 3 First Aid Course on Monday and have a pile of things to get done.

I think we will have goat kids next spring. That will be nice and I am hoping that both does have been bred. I know that the one doe was bred, but I never saw the other doe actually in heat. I guess we will find out in the spring!

Not much else going on here other than the winter prep

French Lops & other stuff

Well, I am currently talking with Sarah McCrea of Rainstar Rabbitry in getting a few more buns from her. If everything works out Laura-ann and I will be bringing up 3 or 4 buns. Sarah has some very promising litters in the box right now. I have my eye on a few of the babies, so I'm sure the hardest part will be picking! The litters are a rainbow of colors too so that part is nice, but they are a typey bunch of babies :-)

We have just about got to our winter numbers, there are a few that need to decided on whether they will be staying. I have 5 French Lop babies that have to be decided on. 2 from Bailey and 3 from Lucie.

I have plans to go to the Grande Prairie Dog Show on Sunday. I'm going to be catching a ride with Laura-ann and her mom, so I won't have to drive all the way to Grande Prairie. Just to Dawson Creek. Considering the funny weather that we have been having, I'm glad to only have to drive that far. The show is supposed to have a couple Tollers and a Brittany. Should be a fun show to watch.

I moved the Chinchillas into the shed and have set up the guinea pigs in a better configuration. All I have left to move into the shed is the english lops. Still have to insulate the shed better, but not too worried about it right now as we have had pretty mild weather. I am keeping an eye on the forecast to make sure that there are no major dips in the temperature.

I've been looking at a horse and I have found one that I like. Just depends on if I think I can swing the purchase money right now. Susan(lady from 7-11) and I are planning on attending the Nov 24 sale in Dawson Creek. Just to look mainly, but you never know what you could find there!
well, enough for now

Some Website Updates

Well, yesterday I managed to get some pictures taken. There are now pictures of most of the rabbits. I got pictures of most of the new buns from this summer and some of the young stuff. A few didn't get pics because they are chewed and looked more like a skinny pig than a rabbit.

Also got pics of the chinchillas and just need a new one of Ebby, I somehow missed her yesterday. Also need new pics of everything else that eats around here ;-P Most of the pigs need pics, few I took last night I didn't like how they looked, so will have to redo them as well.

Winter has started to show itself around here and I'm not looking forward to the months that we will have of snow and cold weather...

Well, have to run and pick up Sam at school, might post more later...
