Sorry, I havent shown Hollands, but have you been on the ARBA website to find shows in your area? The best way to learn is to go to a show, watch, and talk to other Holland breeders. Most are more than willing to share advice and suggestions. You can also search the internet for Holland Lop breeder groups for specifics on showing that breed.

A little more in depth Holland’s are a four class breed shown in two varieties. They are first divided into the varieties of Solid or Broken and then each variety there are 4 classes that are Sr Buck, Sr Doe, Jr Buck, and Jr Doe. Jrs are 6months and under and seniors are over 6mos of age. Find out the class and variety for your rabbits and that’s how you enter them. I also suggest getting a standard of perfection book. You can buy it straight from arba.net or at the show they should have a local vendor. Also yes talk to other breeders! Introduce yourself and why you like Holland’s and why you are interested in showing and then just listen. Breeders usually love talking about their rabbits just be conscious if they are showing they might be super busy and not willing to talk so find time in the morning after check in before the show starts to go and walk around to talk
