Sarah-Thanks for posting pictures-even more than ever I now wish I could be there!

 

[woahlookitsme]

No problem not many pictures from today because we were in rabbit sessions from 9-3 VERY INFORMATIVE for the rabbit breeders. It will help me a lot in helping answer questions on here! But here are the little few I got:

Gunner right before he got so scared he shot off the table and started running down the aisles. :O luckily someone caught him

A blue silver fox

And the gorgeous tort Britannia Petites! It's their first showing yay!

Gunner is so goreous! One of these days maybe a Tan will just hope on into our house. I've always been a big time lop person, but I've been seeing alot of Tans lately and hearing so much good about them (despite what Fraggles has to say here... )

 

[woahlookitsme]

Lol actually gunner threw me a huge win and I will add out very last but I am so proud of him! I got to take a lot today!

My little blue babies missed each other being in separate cages so we put them back together to reduce their stress and they started grooming each other

Congrats on the win! :clapping: Go Gunner!

Also, that black silver fox looks like a hedgehog. Just me? Maybe?

 

[fuzz16]

congrats!!! I am so sorry i didnt get more time to browse around and get pictures!! it was a long day though with 2 kids and 8 hours of driving startin at 6am lol

seen some results but not a lot, been watching some of te videos too...one of my trio hasnt been put outside yet..my daughter infatuation has led the poor baby to being toted around everywhere and her cage dragged to whichever room their in. she is sprawled out by the front door right now..m sure waiting for more craisons as the kids sneak them to her lol

 

[fuzz16]

double post.

 

[majorv]

Here's a couple of pictures of one of our blue Tan babies eating out of the cans they provided for the coops...I thought it was too cute to pass up!

 

[woahlookitsme]

lol about the trio! and yes it does look like hedgehog now that I look at it

I will post pics as soon as I get on my phone Surprisingly Its much easier there.

 

[woahlookitsme]

Not too many pics tonight but yay presentation rabbits show tomorrow

A rhinelander looking gorgeous

I think this was a French angora lol

Luciano looking pretty !

Wade Burkhalter judging Best In Show and the winner was a beautiful and fluffy English Angora!

And I bought that senior Buck names captain jack. I think he will be a good addition and hope he makes some nicer babies for me. Sadly Sinatra(monster) will be leaving. He is going to another breeder and hopefully he will work better with her does than he did with mine. I will miss my best easiest and fastest breeding buck but I have to do what's best for my herd. Ill miss you papa monster.

 

[fuzz16]

i loved those rhinelanders! so great youve got to sit through it all!

 

[audrinasmommy88]

OMG those Champagne's are GORGEOUS!!! I want one!!! that just might be what I get when I decide to get Gracie a husbun. Absolutely beautiful!

I thought that there would be more rabbits there than there are. It looks like (from the picture) that there are not much more there than at Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo (HLSR). You took some great pictures though Any chance of a picture of a Mini Rex? (I have a HUGE soft spot for them).

 

[majorv]

The picture taken from a balcony was the youth section (or most of it). The Open rabbits were in a building at least 5-6 times bigger. Over 21,000 rabbits were entered.
