American Chinchilla Road Trip...

9:38 am - 51 degrees - overcast, light wind....

Last weekend Caitlyn and I went on a road trip through the beautiful Columbia River Gorge to pick up a few new additions to our mini-farm we seem to be starting. Where were the guys? They stayed home and worked on the chicken coop. I'll post about that soon!

Off for a fun 9-hour road trip!

I love the drive along the Columbia River and through the Gorge because of the ever changing landscape, so many breath taking sights and views! We also lucked out and had gorgeous weather the whole trip.





These wind turbines are HUGE!

Had to stop at Stonehenge.


Meet our newest additions - a breeding pair of American Chinchilla Rabbits! Aren't they just gorgeous... and huge!

Trixie

Reuben

Reuben is 3.5 months old and weighs in at just over 5 pounds. Trixie is 11 months old and weighs in at just under 10 pounds. 

When they are full grown, Bucks will weigh between 9-11 pounds and Does will weigh between 10-12 pounds.

Trixie and Reuben, who are very soft, sweet, and cuddly, did great on the car ride home and are settling right in.
