The Show

The show on Saturday was a big state convention. I felt a little dwarfed as I stood beside my fellow breed giants. I've gone to this show many times over the years, watched as it escalated. It's a good show, though it used to be a double, and it used to be reasonably priced. There were a ton of beautiful rabbits there, lots of old friends to greet. I didn't do so well on the table, but I did pick up a trio of BEW Mini-rex and an additional pair of chinchilla Mini-rex to add to my already existing herd. As usual the kids did better than I, with my 2nd placing 3rd of 7 in an open class of Havanas and my eldest... well she doesn't know how she placed, but we know it wasn't last!

My second also picked up an addition to her herd, a chocolate Havana doe she's named Ginny. And we sold the Angora doe. Since she tanked this litter and since I was already on the fence with regards to keeping/selling them, I decided to just make the cut. I had hoped to sell the pair together, put a great price on them in the hopes of that. But apparently, it wasn't meant to be. A lady bought the doe, but wasn't interested in the buck. Too bad, since he's actually the better of the two. Still, I'll see about selling him at the next show... in six weeks.
