Aside from my pet project of working on dwarf "micro" rexes, I plan on trying to get seriously into showing. Problem is, I'm still so new to rabbits. I know just enough to know that I know nothing, really. I recently lost most of my heard (including my two purebred does.) due to a sudden and unexpected change in housing situation, but I know that I'm interested in showing and I want to know as much as possible, so that when I'm in a possition to breed again, I'll be ready to.
So I need some info, and maybe even a constant mentor or two. Someone who's familiar with the mini rex breed. And, if possible, located in or near Georgia.
Some of the things I'd like to know: What's a good color to start with? I find I'm fond of the Castor, broken, BEW, and Tri brokens. What do judges look for? Is there a place (aside from the book recived on joining the ARBA) to find breed specifications and disqualifications? Which colors should and should not be mixed? Why? Which are the best bloodlines/rabbitries that you know of? What sort of breed diseases should I watch out for? (aside from sore feet) And of course, any other info that you all think may be helpful. My thanks, in advance.
