It's MULBERRY TIME! (pics)

[Anntann]

The little guys are 2.5weeks old now and I had to tip over the nestbox a few days ago. These critters are REALLY into food. Whitey still has gallons of milk, and they all have fat tummies, but they're just EVERYWHERE looking for something to get into :lol:

The adults were full of greens, and just laying around when this little one came out of the nestbox to search around. He finally found a mulberry leaf JUST his size!

After eating the leaf, he stretched and then wandered back to the nestbox for a snooze with his siblings. It's really hot here today, and Mom had removed all the nest materials from the box. The kits like to be up against the corners, but today they're more spread out than usual.

And just cuz they're cute fluffy wooly things, I've included a shot of the French juniors (4 months now and starting to shed) enjoying some apple leaves!

Great pictures, Ann! They sure love their mulberry leaves, don't they? (Wish I had a mulberry tree or three.)
