With it being so cold, I have been checking the waterers every few hours. I changed the nipples, and shook them up, last time. They drank happily after. This time the whole bottles needed changing out. They were pretty much frozen from the nipple to an half inch around the outer parts of the bottles. Fresh, warm, waterers were put out. I will check on those in a few hours.
It is up to 17 F. Perhaps these will last longer. I will check in a few hours again. But that is that. I may have to change the nipples, they freeze fairly quickly. Though, being warmer, and with fresh warm water, they may be pretty good yet. One last insurance of access to water, then I'll call it that. Leave them too it until the ducks are to be put up, then just pull the waterers.
Oh, the mini does haven't been eating hay, they just pulled it out and threw it down. Hmm? I suppose, like real women, who do the same with toilet paper? It's... a wiring issue in the female brain. *sigh* *laughs* But they really do eat the most, per rabbit, per pound, of all my critters. And they drink the most! It... must be a perpetual bachelorette party? Ha! And it well might be.
Even dressed well, and with gloves, a hat, and handling warm waterers, it was a very hard cold out there. I couldn't tell the difference between seventeen and zero. If I think there is more of a breeze going currently. The valley is breathing, and it's noticeable. Still, I'd rather winter than summer, if spring and fall are becoming my more favored... when they behave as one should expect.
I really have to get to some things, but am so tired. I'm not sure how to get to them! I will try. Later.
