Thought I'd start a new threadto mark a new beginning.
As part of new things:
What they don't tell you about rabbit shows:
1) Don't bring a carrier. Yes, not even one. Why?...Because...you will bring animals home!
2) You will be surrounded by hundreds (or thousands) ofpeople who also have no self control when it comes toanimals. Specifically, getting new animals. Theywill have you thinking that starting a 'small' (under 50) rabbitry isno problem.
3) Don't enter raffles and place tickets in for animals youdon't intend on really taking home. Trust me, even if you'veNEVER won anything in your life, you will win several times over.
4) There will be other animals there besides just rabbits. Be strong.
5) Never ask why certain animals are in a raffle if you are a big softy. Bad ideal.
6) Don't pet any rabbits - never, ever, ever, ever. You will take them home.
7) Just don't go - they are addictive.
Now that all those reasons have been listed, I will show you the horrible consequences of not listening to this advice:
I won 3 roosters who were destined for the stew pot. Had toget them since they were not even full grown (according to the vendors)and had lived such a short life. They were re-homed today toa guy who has kept poultry all his life -- to live a full life with hisother chickens.
I also won a pair of silver martens. They were named Alphonzoand Erica. These are also after anime characters Alphonzo andEdward Ulric from Fullmetal Alchemist.
Erica pouting cause I won't let her play.
Another of her. She's tugging on the blanket.
This is Alphonzo:
