It's been a week of planning and re-planning here on the homestead.
As the conversation continues as to whether we will relocate to the northwest, a lot of the projects we've been planning are being reviewed.
Not knowing what the real estate market will be doing over the next few months, we are facing the possibility that we may not be able to sell the house. Of course, we are also thinking about what happens if we do.
One thing that we've started but not finished yet was our turkey house. The building is up (8'x16') but the inside is empty and the runs haven't been built yet. Since the turkeys are happily living in some large mobile pens (where they've already been living for over a year), we've decided to re- purpose the building into a rabbit house and move forward with our rabbit breeding plans.
Why go through all this just to move? Well, our thinking is twofold. For one, we gain the experience without losing the time, and for two, we get started in the event that we don't move anyhow.
I've ordered cages and they should be here this week. As soon as they arrive and are installed I'll share some pics. Of course, I'll be on the lookout for some male rabbits and a couple of females soon as well!
