Lots of horse pictures and my thoughts on chinchilla feed

I am experimenting with the benefits of feed when showing a chinchilla.  When doing this it is hard to see whether it is truly helping or I am just showing a better quality chinchilla than the other chinchilla that is not getting the feed.  However I do think that it is helping to some degree.  When doing this I have to be EXTREMELY careful that I do not cause the chinchilla to get Hepatic Lipidosis (I hope this is the right way of spelling it and I have the right name.  I tend to get names for diseases mixed up)  AKA The fatty liver disease.  This is caused when a chinchilla has to many treats or a poor diet.  I can go into that later but one of the symptoms is a hunched back.   Although rabbits are completely different than chinchillas I once got a mixture of what to feed show rabbits before they are being shown to improve the coat.  I add the supplement to the food I am currently feeding them 1/4 +/- of a teaspoon everyother day.  It consists of some Calf Manna,  Rolled Oats, and Black Sun Flower Seeds with the occasional Pearled Barley.  I am going to try different things within this to see the what works after I have time to get more research about it.  So far I have had no health problems to be seen and it is only fed starting 1 month in advance to a show (the next show isn't until October).  This is all my own opinion and I have spent alot of time researching this. 
Anyways on to something fun!  Here are some pictures that we took of the horses yesterday!

Isn't he GORGOUS?!?!?

She looks almost dead the way she is laying there!

Life is tiring and hard when your a horse.  You do almost nothing!

What a nut.  It is good that we have one clown!  She got her leg stuch ing the fence.

Champ again!

I was scratching her chest and she was making funny faces.  Sorry,  I look really bad in this picture.  I was cleaning chinchilla cages. 

More funny faces!

She is so graceful and elegant!

"What are you looking at?"

Horses are so funny looking when they get up!

Mid morning nap!

Sleeping hard.

ZZZZZ.....

Tate had treat's in his pocket and Jewel was desperate for a treat.  She is so cute!

Bunnies

I let some bunnies hop around last night.  Here are some pictures of Furnando and Lily when they each had their 'play' time

Lily is a Lilac English Angora.   I clipped her about a week ago.   She looks so cute all 'bald'!

She has the prettiest little face.

Mr. Furnando!  He is a Chestnut Agouti English angora.

He looks so cute.  I have not clipped him because I think I am going to bring him to County fair.

He looks like he has eye liner!

Updated pictures of Basil and Rosemary!

I have not updated my blog in a long time!!!!  Here are some cute new pictures of Basil (my TOV Ebony female, born May 15th, 2011) and Rosemary (Standard, Ebony carrier female.  Possibly light ebony,  Born May 15th, 2011).   They are so adorable! 

Basil.  She is so cute!

Look at that face!

Rosemary smelling something.

She has the sweetest little face.

Got to wipe that nose!

Here are some beautiful sunset pictures from the other night!

New Bunnies!

I got two BEAUTIFUL new does today!!!!  Lily is a Sr. Lilac doe and I also got a R-E-W (Ruby eyed white) doe who was just weaned.  She is to die for!  I have not come up with a good enough name for her though.  :)

Lily!

She has a really cool color!

Yes, somewhere in that hair she does have eyes.  :)

She has ALOT of wool!!!  She is going to be clipped soon. 

My brand new R-E-W doe!

She is SO cute!  I just love her.  I didn't think I would like the R-E-W color as much as I do!

Sorry, I look bad in this picture.  It was taken at around 6:30 AM.  Right after I picked her up.

Isn't she scrumptious!

Old Cowboy Thinking Hard....Or Is It Hardly Thinking?

Right Nana?  :)  Don't be mad at me Papa.

Cowboys work hard.  Gotta love this cowboy!

The Hennie Hyatt!

The Hennie Hyatt is done and is now all booked!  The Hennie Hyatt currently has 11 resident chickens and maybe more to come!  Unfortunately the Hennie Hyatt will not be accepting anymore 'outside' chickens.   Here is the new and up to date Hennie Hyatt!

The Hennie Hyatt.  Complete with designer colors!

Very spacious with a conveinent roost to enjoy. 

A closer look at the inside reveals the excellent workmanship

The manager of the Hennie Hyatt.  He is here 24/7 for all your Hennie needs.

Lots of nice windows and natural light. 

Finishing touches on the Hennie Hyatt.

"This is a 5 star place!"

"Wow, Not sure what to think"

The critics talk it over....

And they all decide that it is a 5 star home! Including the worst critic, Polly (one of the roosters.  Yes, his name is Polly). 

But the Hennie Hyatt does have some policies.  We do ask that there is no 'mooning' in the Hennie Hyatt at all times.  Please do that else where, we are sorry for any inconveinences.

The Manager on call.
