Bunny bunny bunny

We have acquired yet another rabbit!

This one is a boy, we arranged to borrow him because we thought Bunny Boy wasn't doing the job (although it now turns out he is). In the end he has been given to us, so now we have 2 males and 3 females. A bit of an unbalanced herd (warren?) but never mind. 
He is a good chunky boy who should make nice chubby babies who looks very like Mrs Robinson and similar to Bernardette. He seems to be settling in to his new life on the lawn. We have mated him with Bernardette which was very quick but I am sure he enjoyed anyway - not so sure if she did.

I have palpitated Ginger who was mated two weeks ago to Bunny Boy and this time I am sure I can feel kits inside her. We will see for sure sure in a couple of weeks. Hopefully the weather will be warm then and she will be a better mother than Mrs Robinson - although apparently first litters often don't survive. It is too traumatic!
