Poppy.....my big boy


Here's a couple of pictures I snapped of Poppy today. He'll be three months old in another week. He's really turned into a pretty boy and YES, HE's a HE!! Scooter gives him a bit of a hard time, but I'm going to put them in the big loft for the winter so they'll have plenty of room. After that.......I don't know. I don't expect Poppy will be welcomed back to the small loft next year.





Here's a short video. Think he's all boy????? I've seen him trying to court his Momma........

They sure do grow up fast.

Thank you for sharing.

Looks all boy to me! (And acts it!) He looks so much like the babies that Bernadette and Buddy have had. The exact same rounded head and little beak. Is he half Sat too? He's a doll.

That's what these are. I think Toto is likely theirs too, but I never knew for sure. Here's a pic of the two latest ones, they're about four months old now and just so adorable:

LOL.......no, I'm a southern gal!!
I watched another video that someone posted and it took me to a Netherlands language video. It took me while to figure out how to get back to english. I just fixed the link.
