Showing Rabbits
Showing rabbits is a great way to bond with your rabbit. You may be wondering... How do I get started? This is the youth 4-H program, other wise you will need to show in ARBA , any ways lets continue a bout youth 4-H. Well, Since I live in Michigan, it might be different in other states. I went to ARBA, American rabbit breeders association, and looked at that page. Then I Went to Michigan 4-H. You should be able to find an animal category, since there is more then just animal 4-H. You can e-mail or call the main instructor. You can choose what group you would like to be in, then you must go to the meetings. Bring your rabbit in a carrier, and sign in. You will learn how to pose, examine, and handle your rabbit. Every summer I bring my rabbits to fair and do that in front of a judge. The judge gives you a score and who ever has the best score wins! You also can put them in best of breed. your rabbit competes for best of well breed. Best mini Rex, best Holland lop, and so on. You also can do progeny, best offspring. You also need to make a rabbit book. they give you questions on paper, you answer them and decorate your book. You should try it, you will like it.
