Cracker Barrel Bazaar in Newbury, VT: A Success!

We had a fantastic day the Cracker Barrel Bazaar last Saturday, the 18th of July. We rented a tent and put pictures of the llamas and rabbits as the backdrop. We had yarn and blankets hanging in the tent and umbrella. We had soaps (made a Thyme to Heal Shoppe in Lisbon, NH), salves, yarn, felted items, our mother's woven blankets, rabbits, and sheep skins for sale. The happy rabbits we set up on the grass all day and we had children through the booth constantly giving them attention. We sold soap, felted items, yarn, hand made greeting cards picturing our rabbits and llamas, and even a hand woven blanket! All of these things are always available for sale through mail or visits! Just shoot us an email and we can set up an appointment!We finally sold our beautiful buck, Merlin at this show! He is a breeding quality German hybrid, but he was just too related to our rabbitry for us to keep. He is just as sweet as his father, our legendary Ethan Allen (known for his temperament). Good luck at your new home, Merlin!

Shearing and Weaning

Here are Cocoa and her baby Cocoa Puff with their new looks! Hana shore these two lovely girls at Scenic View Farm in Whitefield, NH while I shore Crunch and Munch, the two appaloosa boys seen below.

Crunch and Munch:
Hana and I brought Arethusa and Winny to a new farm. We would like to breed Arethusa and Winny is being weaned from May. Here is Are with the newest cria on the farm!
Winny and Are hang out in this bigger girl herd.
Here is the big man, Mapsoot, that we would like to breed Are to. She is 14 years old and in excellent body condition. She would be fine having another cria, it would be her 5th. However, her last cria was 6 years ago and since camelids are induced ovulaters it may take her a while to get back on her cycles.
What a cutie!I walked out the backdoor the other day and found these silly turkeys sleeping like this! I had to take a picture, it was so funny!
