How long do you cook a baby bunny?

This afternoon I was sitting at the computer and kept hearing a banging noise. I knew all the kids were outside or sleeping so I got up to investigate. I went into the kitchen and heard it again, only it was not coming from the kitchen as I had thought. It was in the dining room and coming from Lucy's play kitchen. Tucked inside the microwave was one of the 7 21/2 week old baby bunnies. Apparantly Lucy put it there earlier this morning when she went to go potty, then we went to town and what 3 year old would remember her baking bunny after a ong grocery trip. Next time you go to prepare a bunny remember, it may take all day. We returned him to his brothers and sisters of course. Lucy insisted he WAS NOT FOR DINNER.

Here are a few more shots of the babies. This one fromwhen they were about 5 days old.


Here are three of Jackon's favorites at about 10 days old.


And Lucy with two more.

Trying to juggle a couple more. Baby bunnies are about the cutest little things. And if anyone is interested we need to slim down our herd.

you must be careful when microwaving you bunny rabbit. If you stick it in at too high of a power level it may melt the fur,therefore rendering it useless when you go to make a slipper.

Simeon would take them ALL. But I don't think we can.

Jordan..you're nuts.

Love it! Glad the house got quiet for long enough for you to hear the SOS from the little thing.

No bunnies for us, thanks. Wonder what Bessie would think?
