Oh, oh, oh did you get them?!? Ah so jealous, my favourite breed :grumpy:

 

[Sabine]

Yes they are here!!! Customs didn't even look at them (in fact customs couln't be bothered as it was too late:biggrin2 Got them here safe and sound and only got a chance to marvel at them today. I am totally in love with the two nethie girls. They re still very skittish.
I did take some random pictures of the rabbits which I'll upload soon. I had such fun watching the bunny hop:biggrin2: and the auction.
Hopefully I'll be able to go again next year.

 

[irishbunny]

I just sent you a PM as you posted this lol! Did you get a buck as well? What colours? Are they really cute and small?

 

[Sabine]

I got a proven siamese sable and a young siamese smoke doe. The buck is siamese smoke too but somewhat on the larger side. The sable doe has been mated with a sable buck so hopefully I will have offspring by the end of February.
All of them are totally adorable.

 

[irishbunny]

They sound gorgeous, I love nethies, no better breed lol! Can't wait to see how the litter turns out

 

[Kooky]

Oh yes they were judging all sorts: guineas, gerbils...
You wouldn't know where to look first

 

[Sabine]

I did make some half hearted attempt to take some pictures with my mobile on the last day. One breed that really impressed me and that I had never heard of was the Fauve de Bourgogne

If I was ever looking for a larger breed this would be the one. Followed by the Thuringer (I don't think the picture does them any justice)

and the Sallander (sorry pathetic picture)

To get a better idea of the breeds it's probably safer to google images.
I loved watching the rabbit auction too. The rabbits that were sold for the most were two REW Polish. One went for £200 and the other for almost as much. Just as well my transport boxes were full at that stage so I didn't get carried away
