Confinement Period

Finally..Hammie becomes a father.


the litter of 6 babies




Well, it's already two days since Sammie gave birth. We will give her a confinement period of about 2 weeks. To do that, she and her babies will not be disturbed. We put a towel over the other side so that she will not get too much disturbances..

We have yet to know if all the babies will survive. So far, Sammie is very protective of her babies. She even uses her wheel as her nest..

Twin bananas

Today this cute little darling visited me. His grandparents brought him over for the very first time. He's so cute as he smiled readily. I was tempted to carry him and he was fine with that. Some babies don't like strangers.  I carried him and kissed his cheek several times..So adorable. Without hesitation, I gave him an ang pow. his granddad put him on the table and I took a shot of him.. When I went back home in the evening, I realized that the bunch of bananas at the altar has ripen. I brought the bunch to my shop and shared with my people. There was this particular twin bananas and my worker wanted them. She peeled them and I could see that they were adjoined all the way down. Well, old wives tale has it that those ladies who ate them would give birth to twins in future..
