Becky here, I have yet to contribute to the blog so here I go. (IOW, I'm new so give me a break!)
So
if you have been following this blog, you know that Chuck and
Lydia have previously bred their rabbits, but I have not. Well, that changed this past Saturday.
Cookie (broken chocolate) and Honey (chocolate tort)
were bred. Because I'm a chicken I had Chuck do the breeding... I had to
pay with my last half of a Krispy Kreme doughnut. Boy is she pricey!

So for nesting boxes you need to have shredded paper
and hay. Paper to help with the rabbits' hygiene and hay for mom to
graze on and eventually wean her kits. Because of my ability to think
ahead, I realized that not two but three girls would be fighting for the
free newspaper Dad brings home. So I decided out of the goodness of my
heart that I would buy my nesting box materials so that there would be
more for my sisters (am I not such a good big sister?). It is a paper-based litter, and I will post my opinion of how well it works after the
kits are born. By the way, it's a really colorful array of purple, pink,
blue and white. Guess it will make for cute pictures!
Waiting for more pictures. Enjoy your blog.
