If any of you read my blog, you know I share a residence with 13 chickens and 5 rabbits. One of those rabbits is Lilly. She is the rabbit I have been trying to get used to me so we can have her in the house with Bobo. Well, surprise surprise. It looks as if my sweet Lilly cakes may be Lillyboy. Either Lilly is a boy, or somehow, Chuck, the neighbor bunny impregnated one of our girls. Two nights ago, we found 7 baby bunnies outside. We were wondering why they were digging such a big hole in the backyard. We honestly thought she was just creating a den. We had no idea we had babies cutie pies on our hands:) It took us two days to catch them all. I caught the first one and named her Alice. She is a Lionhead breed, pure white with red eyes. She has the cutest squished nose and looks like a little cotton ball. I love her so much. There are three brown ones like Lilly, 3 white ones, and one little grey one. They are so precious and amazing. Sadly, we have only caught 5 of them. There are two still out there, sad and lonely without their mother. One of the other female rabbits made her way into the hole today. I noticed some blood spots on her white fur. I fear she has killed the other babies. We have not seen them all day. I really hope I am wrong, but I am afraid she they are not with us anymore:( I will keep you readers posted
