Hi all, I have been reading for a long time but rarely post - I'm a bit shy.
I recently lost my second Flemish Giant, Rory, to a mouth abscess. My vet was amazing but he went down very quick as I'm sure you all understand. I am down to one bunny, a Californian, Zander. He is about 4 years old. I have owned a dutch, mini lop, lionhead mix, Californian and two flemish during my life. Most were rescues.
I loved my Flemish, but after loosing two in a row to mouth abscesses I want to try a different breed. I am looking for a Jersey Wooly or Polish for their personalities and smaller size. I know these breeds are a bit hard to come by as opposed to lops or dutch.
I was thinking about going to the Columbus rabbit show in May to purchase one (pet not breeder). My questions - do they sell rabbits at the show? I have never been to a show so I don't really know what happens at one. What can I expect if I can purchase a rabbit?
Thanks everyone for your expertise.
