Video Bonus: Leroy, born to shovel snow




Leroy got to experience snow for the first time today. It turns out that he loves it, no matter how cold. In about 5 minutes, he had dug up half of the snow covering the pen.

The Three Amigo Chefs




I had been experimenting with water bowls in place of bottles. Turns out that was a bad idea because Ickus, JD, and Mochi drop their compressed timothy blocks in there and those turn to mash.
Who knew bunnies could make culinary creations? Not once but twice, even.



Mochi seemed to like it.

Non-standard Magnus




In competition, a dwarf hotot rabbit is faulted for extra spots on the body and disqualified for the presence of a dewlap-- a fold of skin that hangs from the throat.
However, these are things I adore about her, especially that little dot at the tip of her tail.

No vacancy

Mochi is very possessive of his snow fort. He chases everybunny out except for his sweetheart, Kiwi.

Snowflakes in the eyelashes




Hugs had a blast playing in the snow. He loves to dig in it and steal a bite of snow here and there. I wanted to let him keep playing but he started looking shivery in the midst of all his activity so I took him inside to thaw out.

Don't lick anything cold!

Stitch shows off her white belly and her pink tongue. This is the first time the Kiwi clones have seen snow, and they loved it! They spent all their time hopping up the drifts and digging in the powder. They kept trying to get Uncle Ickus to play, egging him on, but Icky hates the snow and he never moved.

"Can you warm me up?"

Bandit hops in the snow for the first time, and leans out of the wire to say hi to the cat.

Rumble meets snow

Unfortunately it was too windy to create a great first impression. Rumble wanted to go back inside immediately.
