    I had to chuckle a little this past weekend.

    I was watching a program about a man who bred rabbits and he was going into the details and do's and don't's of the process.

    He was talking about how he couldn't leave a doe and buck in the same cage because the female would castrate the buck.....I don't know why, but I thought of this thread.....

    Hey you, don't tell me there's no hope at all -
    Together we stand
    Divided we fall.

    I laugh, therefore? I am.

    No humans were hurt during the posting of this message.

    Kini is out resting by the stone wall, a smarter resting spot as at least one side is safe from predators! He was under the tree immediately after one of the downpours we have had intermittently this afternoon, and is nearly invisible on the dirt there!

    Hee hee - it started pouring again, so he moved back under the tree - this is a terrible photo, but will give you and idea how little he really is!



    And how hard to see on the dirt, and in low light!

    What breed of rabbits are these, and how big will they get? I know some can be quite large. Beautiful camouflage.

    He is a wild rabbit. He and Brownie are both Eastern Cottontails, which have taken over most of the range of New England Cottontails, which are smaller and have slight different markings.

    "That's the power of kittens (and puppies too, of course): They can reduce us to quivering masses of Jell-O in about two seconds flat and make us like it. Good thing they don't have opposable thumbs or they'd surely have taken over the world by now." -- Paul Lukas
