This little one has a different fate…

One of the Chinchilla kits from Salad’s litter will go to a home where she can help fertilize an urban backyard garden and teach three wonderful girls about small animal husbandry. This little gal is one of my favorites from the bunch so I’m glad to see her go on to make some other people happy.

I also find some comfort it knowing that some of Salad’s genes will be going out into the world. She’s a sweet, friendly rabbit with amazing mothering talent. If Little Sal has half of the charm as Big Sal, I’m sure her new caregivers are going to be very happy with the new addition to their household.

This weekend I will begin the process of “thinning out the herd”. I am filled with dread over it.
