The girls are starting to make their vocal transition... from high pitched peeps to low pitched honks. They are a little less than three months old now and their voices are in transition. They don't quite cluck/braak yet. It sounds more like a little chicken honk.
As you can see from the pix, the girls are feathering in nicely. They have more feathers on their faces and necks now. They also have the more upward stance that the mature Orloffs have.
Thinning the flock has helped make it easier to clean up and we are not going through so much food and water for them any more. We should start getting eggs in about 15 more weeks :)
We don't get to see the rabbits very often. But tonight, near dusk, this little guy was holding very still trying not to be seen.
