Starting to say goodbye

Today the first of Bromwyn's and Ludlow's baby's go , it is the bigger of the two White. This for me is the hardest part, but I know they will be well looked after. All of them have their own little personalities . I have got to know this from all the handling they have had from me.
I will mate Bromwyn again next year she has been such a wonderful Mummy!
I hope people have enjoyed reading about the Big Bunny Hutch, I have really enjoyed writing it. I will do a weekly update on Winnie and Baby's now , I will have to think of a title for their story. Watch this space!

Winnie and her two baby's

Well here is Mummy Winnie and her two lovely baby's.The Daddy is Elijah, both parents have a super personality! the baby's will be 4 weeks old on 31.8.11. Here is a photo I took today.

Up dates

It's been a couple of weeks since I have blogged. The up dates are, the baby bunnies from Mummy Bromwyn all have new homes to go to. The first one will be going on Sunday, I shall miss them , it has been a lovely experience though.

The other Mummy, Winnie, is raising only two now, sadly the others didn't make it. The other two are doing very well and Winnie is very protective of them.
I will post some pictures over the weekend of Winnie's baby's, also one more of Bromwyn's before they go.

I have made some Plum Vodka also now, it will be ready for Christmas I'm hoping. Fingers crossed that it will taste just right!

Plum Gin

I have managed to make some Plum Gin ,it was so easy to make. If I had known how easy it was I would have made it sooner. It will be opened for Christmas. I will make another one but i will leave that one to stand for a year.

Blackberry Jam

Another batch of jam made, this time Blackberry. I decided to strain out the seeds. I must say it tastes very yummy. The Blackberrys were from my garden , so that is even better! Usually we go up to the woods with our dog's and do some Blackberry picking there. Last year when we went ,we had a competion going on , who could fill up the most punnets.

Winnie and Babies

Sadly Winnie lost another Kitten so there are now four. The other four seem to be ok.When they are a few weeks older I will post some pictures.

Week 6 in the Big Bunny Hutch!

So 6 weeks, it's going really quick now . For the last few days I have been separating the Babies from Mum for a Couple of hours each time, for Mum and Babies to get use to it. The Babies are Fully weaned now and doing very well. They love being handled and I know when they go to their knew homes they will love loads of cuddles.

Week Five in the Big Bunny Hutch

Here they are 5 weeks old today. This is a picture of them waiting for me to feed them,as soon as they see me they all come up to the door with their Mummy. Because of all the handling they have, they are so tame.

Sock Loom

As it has been a very rainy day , I have been trying out my new Sock Loom. I decided to make some small socks first to get use to the loom. Yesterday evening I went on good old YouTube to find out how to use the Loom. So far all is going well. The wool that I'm using has a mixture of colours,orange, fawn and green. I have put a couple of pictures on here of both of the Looms and wool that I'm using.

Sock Looming, more baby Bunnies, oh my!

Well I'm so happy, Winnie my other Angora has had her first litter too. Early this afternoon she had them, she gave birth to 7 but sadly 2 didn't survive. The 5 kitten's seem ok and Winnie is fine. I think she is going to be a good Mummy like Bromwyn.
My husband bought me a round Sock Loom , it is such fun and so much quicker than using needles. A parcel came today and my daughter Abi had ordered me a Rectangle Sock Loom so I could knit any size sock from Adult to Baby. I can't wait to experiment.I will keep you updated with Winnie and Kittens. I will be uploading some pictures of Bromwyn and her Bunnies tomorrow.
