Off to the - Bunny- Races

I now have a paid part-time job at LAH farm. Woot

First task in the morning was to check water troughs and stall buckets. 
Ann had made out a schedule so everyone knows what tasks to do and check off.

Ann decided since I was in the aisle with the Rabbits that we'd check the rabbits water and food.
The rabbits currently live in two horse stalls.  
I stepped in the first one and made sure I stood near the door so none of them would venture out.
The second stall has more rabbit and small young rabbits.  There's a box near the stall door when one opens it to again prevent any venturing out.
I made sure to let some of them smell me to "get to know me".  One rabbit looked toward water bowl, perhaps in anticipation of new water and food.
Together Ann and I refilled water bowls and food bowls.
Some rabbits will just sit in a spot for a time.  While others will go a Hop-in.
At one point a few of them decide to go scampering around.  "My",  they are fast.  It felt like "Off to the Races".
OMGosh, they are so cute. 
White ones, brown ones,  black ones.  And a very cute grey and white one that the girls have seen and commented on.
Eventually they will be moved to what was a dog kennel.  The Kennel is to be converted into their living space. 

I like the work though it's physical.  I get a chance to be on a farm and around animals.

I am a country girl at heart.
