Warm Weather and the Critters

When the warm weather hits I like getting the bunnies out for exercise and the relaxation of nibbling grass. The guinea pigs make effective lawn mowers. :)
 Polish, loppies and Mini Rex chilling out together.
 Normally a chair is in with them, but today it was a cloudy day and they were under a tree
 Keener and Tanner relaxing
 Fresh airand fun!
 Biscuit is a much happier rabbit being outside.

A rescue

Tonight I went out to care for the bunnies to find miss ChinPinny all in a dither... and I was thinking what's with this she's always calm.

And then I find it... her little foster polish, trying to strangle itself on the wire.

It had gotten out the box and gotten it's head stuck in the cage wire.  It had crawled above the baby saver wire.

So I called my sweet hubby out.

I held the wee one up which he snipped the cage wire for me.

One rescued baby.

One adult bunny no longer in a dither.

Calmness resumed.

Rescue Rabbit - Flemmy cross

Posting this for a customer as this boy may have a home.

this is a very tame, hand raised, so I'm told, 3/4 flemmish giant.  Not sure what the other 1/4 is.

Young rabbit breeder got in over her head.
Gave me a bunch of rabbits to simply have them gone.
Best offers take them home.

May retain the senior buck and one of the magpie does.
