Sweetfern, Comptonia peregrina, is neither sweet nor a fern. It looks like something the dinosaurs would have walked through, releasing the warmest, spiciest aromas of imagination.
Yes, although they DO make a charming fashion statement, don't they? ;) The babies ran around "stark nekkid" for a while yesterday afternoon, but the coats were back on before bedtime. And a good precaution, as it was only 27F when I got up this morning.
Baby bunnies (or "little bun-buns" as I found myself calling them when I used to raise pet rabbits, years ago - really!) are as cute as cute can possibly be! I'll look forward to seeing a picture :)
Very good news indeed :) Especially for first-time mamagoats, one baby each is just about perfect, I think! Last night was so warm (over 40F) they didn't need their jackets, but I won't wash them for storage just yet...that would be a likely way to bring more snow!
Awwww... they're darling, Quinn! That brown one looks just like my Symphony. Great idea using the fleece blanket for the kid coats. I think we all have a ton of those around our homes. I'll keep this in mind if Frieda kids this fall.
Hi Jana! She reminds me of Big Sister in the regard also, but the overall look - no badger, in fact no white at all, anywhere - is very different. Did you look at the "postcard from the paddock"? Lots more pictures :)

My daughter and I both squealed aloud. And we would both like to know - are the jumpers just to keep them warm?
