DD shows rabbits, Satins. I wondered if anyone else is involved in this hobby?
She got started with 4-H 3 years ago. Today began her 3rd year showing with the American Rabbit Breeders Association.
She took 7 rabbits and ended up with 2 firsts and 3 seconds and 2 best of varieties.
She works pretty hard at this, she has to water before school every morning and right now she has about 30.
She feeds and waters every evening. She cleans trays 3 times a week.
She also makes most of the decisions who to breed, (she line breeds which she knows more about than I do). She also takes care of culling.
I am the bunny secretary and occasionally I am promoted to bunny groomer.
Just wondered if anyone else is involved with rabbits.

No. not here. It sounds really interesting. It must be very rewarding to your dd to see her hard work recognized.:D :thumb:

wow! sounds like hard work! As a parent it must feel good to have such a dedicated DD! And so responsible too! I concidered getting a bunny, but as a plain old pet. Never occured to me that they can be shown! Something for me to look into.
