As you can tell we have only been showing for a short while so I would like to take this opportunity to thank a few people.
My first thank you must be to David James without whose advice we may never have shown.
To the most amazing people we met at Puddletown who made us so very welcome the first time we went to enquire about rabbits.
However our biggest thank you must go to Harry of Yenalo Stud who set us up with our first Black Mini Rex and then went on to ease us into the show circle, continually helping and advising us and then setting up our stud of black minis we will be forever in your debt Harry.
The list is endless these are just a few names that mean a lot to us.
Since starting to show we have come a long way. Not only learning about the fancy but also changing breeds. We actually fell into the trap of keeping to many breeds because we liked them all. This was a huge mistake and to anyone just starting off do not do it. Honestly you get lots of half decent rabbits one heck of a feed bill and very little return. We now have 3 main breeds that we keep and show.
Thrianta we will never give this breed up it is our favourite.
The Rex in standard and mini but now we only keep orange.
We will be keeping Argente Champagne and Noir.
One last thing show rabbits are not bought just anywhere.
From experience the best thing to do is:
1 consider your breed
2 Seek out a recognised breeder of that rabbit that shows. Unfortunately all breeders do not show so there may be flaws in buying from any breeder.
3 Never be afraid to ask advice from anyone in the fancy.
If you are in doubt or cannot find a breeder of show quality go to the British Rabbit Council website. You will find a list of breeders there
