Baby Bunnies and Burros

Well, we have 12 baby English Angora rabbits on our back porch! Technically, they're the first livestock of ours born here at Hammerstead, although Wolfie (one of our Highland heifers) had her calf Chip when we owned her, she was still over at Kevyn's, and not here. And although we had lambs last spring here, they were from Kevyn's meat sheep flock - we didn't own them. So, technically, the bunnies are it!

In other farm news ... we have a new boarder. A burro named Grayson has taken up residence in our barn until his owners can secure their own place. I look for him to be here for a while. Nice looking donkey, and a sweet disposition to boot. Maybe he can teach Mouse (our other resident donkey) some manners. But I doubt it.
