not good, we have been in the negative digits for several days, sierra's rabbit
is not handling it well. Her checkered giant broke a nail and does not want to put weight on it. His one ear is slightly swollen and flopping but so far it does have heat in it. I got some boxes from the liquor store and cut a hole and filled with wood shavings with straw on top to try and help keep them warmer. Hoping we don't lose him. Gave him a dose of baytril to see if that helps him some. I am not handling the weather also, makes delivering papers an experience from hell. Does not help I tore a bicep muscle either. Hopefully this cold snap ends soon, supposed to get to 25 below monday into tues and 21 below tues into wens. going to have to figure out someway to help heat the area of the shed where the rabbits are for those two nights I think or try to get it to stay near zero degree's at least.
