We love Babies!!

     All the babies at 2 Moore's Ranch are doing great.  The 3 litters of baby bunnies we have are growing so fast. Most have their eyes open and we are finding more and more out of the nesting boxes. I believe we have only lost one.  Jasmine had 11 so we took 2 of hers and put in with Duchess. One of those sadly died. All the rest are doing great.

     The 2 kitties are growing so fast.  Just about every time we go out to the barn they are running around and climbing on stuff.  We put some of the other bunnies on the floor the other day and they wanted to play with them.

      Fred is trying to learn and do what he is suppose to He is hearing the word "No Fred" a lot.. The Shepard part of him has been herding the rabbits in the outside grow out pen.  Yesterday he had them all in a corner.  The only time he may chase one of them is when one of them runs. Then he starts running. He has yet hurt anyone.
       He does not seem to care about the ducks and even left the chickens alone when they were out yesterday.
Fred is in there relaxing with the rabbits.

      The flies are producing and we have even been able to feed the chickens a few.  The big ones are what we are shooting for.  The small ones are just regular flies.

     The baby ducklings are getting so big also.  They are running more and more with the big ducks.  They are getting really pretty also and starting to make grown up duck sounds.


     I have been picking Mulberries from one of our trees here.  I started putting them in Brent Juice first and then the other day decided to make a pie.  It was wonderful. Brent said it was one of the best pies he has had.
     We finally got all the hot wire down on our side of the fence and started putting up the stock fence.  We have one side completely up.  The back and the other side to go.  Then hopefully we wont have to worry about other dogs and animals coming in.  Plus then we wont have to worry about Robin going thru the barb wire.


     We did have a sad day the other day.  We lost one of our Rex grow outs  and dont really know what happened to her.  It was a warm day.  So we dont know if it was heat stroke or if there was something wrong with her.

Until next week,
The 2 Moore's Ranch

  1. I'm glad everything seems to be doing good and that Fred, Trampas, and Betsey are settling in so well. I don't think I realized you could actually eat the mulberries!

  2. I remember eating them when we were growing up. Right off the tree. They are good in pies and juice.
