I have Holland Lops, Mini Rexes and English Spots. I have onwed rabbits for five years, however, I am going to my third show coming up. I would have attended more shows, but my parents have a crazy schedule and I have school and horses and other animals. Anyways...
I have a very good breeder to buy English Spots from. She raises top of the line and her rabbits always are doing good (no bragging intended), especially at the conventions, etc.. BUT! I pay a high price for them. Also, I have to be patient as she does not always have a rabbit for sale, she keeps some, but I'm not too close to her, so she sells "locally" faster, too. So with excellent show stock, it's cost and patience.
I have a Holland Lop buck I bought and when I showed him the first time, he placed 16 out of 20 and got a NP (no place). Due to small head, molting coat, etc., however, he just went through his second growth. Hollands go through a "second growth period", which means their heads get bigger and wider. Some breeders have had rabbits that did LOUSY and just before they decided to cull them, they fully matured at 2-3 years of age and now those rabbits have Grand Champs on them and are producing so. Again, a lot of time, patience, and working with.
Mini Rex: Some colors are "tricky" so to speak. I got a lynx (the breeder labeled him a Lilac) from a breeder who "bred show quality" but he sold me a rabbit that had a major DQ: he was a Lynx with a blue undercoat. I never thought to look because I was told he was a Lilac, and he sort of looked like one, but partially my error as I never looked into the Lilacs and Lynxes. My mistake, my error, but now I know.
There can be a lot of disappointments. You can make an expensive and time consuming trip to a show and do horrible, fairly decent or very good! My very first show, I didn't do too bad, my second, pretty much got last or second from last, this show, I have some better rabbits and one that just went through a second growth.
I don't know how old you are, but if you can't drive, you have to make sure your parents will be willing to spend all day at a show. I'm lucky, my whole family LOVES rabbit shows. So, it's not a big deal. But they can be costly. We just spent about $150 including hotel, entry fees, and food and spent all day at a show, sore from standing, and, well, I didn't do so good. But we love it, so it wasn't that bad. We also got some good stock that day.
Also, like someone else mentioned, it's best to leave the judge to do his/her job while judging. I can't stand when people (especially the youth) start bragging about how amazing their rabbit does and brags to everyone and points out what's wrong with a rabbit during judging (not saying you or anyone here would do that, just ranting about some problems I had at a show LOL).
They are lots of fun, and a great place to learn and buy some good stock. I'm excited because I'm purchasing a nice English Spot buck from my friend. I have eight rabbits, three are not show.
Good luck!
The pictures didn't come through, so I couldn't see them. Good luck and have fun!
