First of all, I don't think you're bothering anyone here. We're here to answer questions.
I don't think any of us breed rexes. While this forum is fairly large....we actually have a fairly low number of breeders on this forum....and if none of us breed rex or minirex - it is sort of hard for us to tell you what to look for.
The only way I can describe it is if you went into a convenience store looking to buy a diamond ring. They'd love to help you and be as friendly as they can...they just don't happen to sell diamond rings.
In this case, the "diamond ring" is a rex breeder. Someone who knows the breed and can help you. I don't think we have one.
If I understand correctly, the breed standards are copyrighted and it isn't like I can go grab one and post it here. It is in the ARBA"Standard of Perfection" book which you can get from
http://www.arba.net/pubs.htm and it costs $15.
You have to understand - that if we don't have what you're looking for- we try to send you in other places to help you find it. We aren't trying to push you aside....we're trying to
help you since we don't have the answers.
I just went to a thread I posted earlier this year asking all breeders to check in - you can find it here:

We had fifteen breeders list their information -
none of them were from Washington state.
This is one reason why I have encouraged you to go on yahoo groups and look for Washington breeders - you'll get TONS of email I'm sure when folks have rabbits for sale and you'll get contact information for breeders and maybe you can find someone that way.
I'm sorry if you feel we haven't helped enough - but we really have tried.
