Satin Angora Bunnies are ready for sale!

Mocha's litter is ready for their new homes, and I'm posting them here for you to see.
They are all bucks, and are $40 each.

It's a beautiful day here, and the pictures came out great - here goes
















Gorgeous little black buck -

...and his brother, they are identical (One was in more sun than the other, which is why one is lighter)!















This little fawn has a GREAT body and a very perky personality! SOLD
















Two photos of this beauty. This little steel bunny has beautiful eyes - for a few weeks they have been blue, but are tending to gray now. Another great personality and very nice body! SOLD


























This last pretty little boy is on the small side, and is a little shy - but likes to cuddle up once he gets to know you

Time to wean those babies!


Time for a baby bunny update. All 7 have pulled through, no losses (thank goodness!) It's so much fun to watch all the hopping and antics they do, but they're all eating well now, so it's time to give mama a break and start weaning.

These 2 are the champion eaters, so they got their own first cage all to themselves yesterday -


Within the next 10 days they will be weaned and Mocha can get her whole cage back!

I'ts done!

The Barn is done - can you feel the glee? Here are the final construction photos, and now my fun can begin! Running with a glowing recommendation from another VA Homestead list member, Penny, we hired the same folks to build our barn as she had. They did a really great job! The pictures here also include Chris and JR from First Choice Construction.

Thanks to Chris' wife Kathy for all her "backoffice" work getting permits in place and keeping the business side running.!

One more day after today and it should be done!

July 14 - Stairway work almost completed today - I can HARDLY stand the suspense!

Doors and windows are now complete!

July 12th update: This work was actually completed on Saturday, but it was so late it was too dark to take the pictures. Now you can see the shingles are all done (don't they look great!) and the doors are in too. Now for the stairs to be done on the inside, final inspection, and it will be ALL MINE!!!

...a little further...

July 12th - Shingles are underway!

Almost there

July 8th - got a little behind on my photos, this is the stage of building on this date:
