aww, they weigh less than my Holland lop
what breed are they?
The trio (buck and two does) were sold to my ignorant self as pygmies. I have since been told that only one is a pygmy and the buck and this doe were likely pygmy/ND's. So best guess is that these babies are 1/2 pygmy 1/2 Nigerian dwarf.

My sister came over so we took a bunch of photos of the babies :D

Excuse the pasture. It is still a work in progress. We will be disking and planting it soon.

Oh and what would you call this grey/brown marking on this ones shoulders?

You can see it in some other photos but I have no really good photos of it.

And we have another layer! Not sure who but I suspect a RIR or one of my "Cuckoo Marans".

Your kids are so cute! I love her leg splints and, oh, how she is bouncing. Looks like a calendar shot.

Do me a favor and eat that egg....really. And let me know if it tastes bad :) I have finally narrowed it down to my Cuckoo Maran and my Barnevelder that one of them is the one who has really gross tasting eggs. I am going to put them in a separate pen and figure it for sure this week. But it got me to wondering, because I am leaning cuckoo Maran is the stinker, is it just her or do they have a different tasting egg? She eats the same as everyone else and is the same age...maybe it is just her :sick

I will be eating it tomorrow :D unfortunately my "cuckoo maran" is not a cm. She's likely an EE mix but was sold to me as a CM.
