We only really had a few options to actually build the house… So, we simply were going to build a platform resting on the ground on some cement blocks, with […]
Moving off the grid was a choice done out of necessity. The land itself cost $24,000, which was pretty much everything that we had. We took out a personal loan […]
Well, first things first on the new homestead…. Need shelter, a fence to keep the dogs and rabbit beasts safe, and a rabbit barn to protect the rabbits from the […]

StarCatcher was my pick of the litter from my first purebred AmChin breeding. She is the sister of doe SY48. She reached 5 lbs by 8 weeks (seriously almost unheard […]
So, this doe is promised to someone, hence the awful name. She managed to get herself knocked up by her brother a month ago, so she had her kits on […]
