Been a While!

Well, it has been a long while since I posted a blog entry. Since my last entry I have attended the show in Chestermere, downsized my animals, worked way too much and moved to Charlie Lake.



I worked basically all of March as First Aid Attendant which actually decided me to downsize what I have for animals. Also was a factor in downsizing is that I intended to move. I decided in my downsizing to not keep the Holland Lops, the American rabbits, the longhair cavies, chinchillas, all my birds but 5(including the ducks, chickens etc), all the horses but Denny and give Savvy back to her breeder. They were all hard decisions but with my time being not as free as before it was the best.



I ended up going to Chestermere with Laura-ann and Brianna and we again had a fun time. I took more sold animals than I did anything. I took Keaton, the broken blue buck from Kim, Windy, Barbie and showed my new French Lop buck from Sarah. Besides him I picked up 6 American cavies from Dillon. I was happy with the results I got and also picked up two more harlequins. Keaton picked up another 3 legs and since I forgot his pedigree could not register him again! I will have to drag his butt to another show just to register him.



After the show, I managed to find a place to move in Fort St John(actually Charlie Lake). So the first weekend in May I moved to Charlie Lake with a much reduced criiter herd. I moved under 20 rabbits, 8 cavies, 2 hedgehogs, 1 cat, 1 dog and 5 birds. I was very lucky to find a place that let me keep my animals, though my llama and horse are at the family farm in Dawson Creek right now. I was also very lucky that my roomie feeds my critters when I'm gone.



I'm currently back to work and this time it is camp work. Sounds like I'll be busy until break-up next spring. Kinda sucks right now because I have pregnant does and everything right now. When I left this last time I had three litter of buns in the boxes, 1 harlequin, 1 french and 1 french x english lop litter. I also have 4 or 5 more does due while I'm gone so I could have a lot more babies when I get back.



Well, that is the last few months in a nutshell
