Babies~!

Well, Mandy finally had her kits. We are out of town all week so Louise had to watch her. She had 5 healthy kits. I still haven't seen them, but we get home tomorrow.

Wonderful Weekend

Well I'm going to be a lazy but and copy and paste what I wrote in my facebook status for last weekend.

-ROYALTY-
I scored an 84% on Breed ID scoring highest in duchess (Breed name, variety, show class, 4/6 class)
I had an 94% on the exam scoring highest in Duchess
I got a 79% in judging scoring 3rd in Duchess
I and 99% in interview scoring the highest OVERALL in the competition

My downfall was my application which was 1/3 of my overall score which hit me hard. So I placed 1st runner up for Duchess! Danica won *YAY DANICA* :)

I have a lot of work to do for Ellensburg, I need to work on writing and judging lol

Snake River R&CC Show Report :)

Last Saturday was a fun day! Kelsey came the night before and slept over. She only has one showable bunny; a nice little smoke pearl marten buck junior.

We got ready the night before and then slept on the floor in the living room :)

In the morning we packed up the rabbits and headed out the Marsing, which is about a 45 minute drive in the dark O' clock traffic.

I decided to scratch the youth entries since most of my good rabbits were out of condition. And any of you wooly breeders know that an out-of-condition jersey doesn't stand a chance if they aren't in coat.

I entered six rabbits in both open shows. Shayla arrived just before the show A jersies got called up. So she watched and Madison arrived soon after that.

Show A results

~Rudy - Sr. Self Buck - BOG

~Zirconium - Jr. Self Buck - BOG, BOV

~Veyla - Sr. Self Doe - BOG, BOSV

~Amethyst - Jr. Shaded Buck - BOG, BOSV

~Annabelle - Sr. Shaded Doe - BOG, BOV, BOS

~Sgt. Pepper - Broken Tooth DQ

Kelsey's rabbit one BOB and got legged

Then Shayla, Madison, Kelsey, and I went on a breed scavenger hunt where we'd pick a breed and try to find it. I crossed off a couple of workbook lessons. Very productive :)

We sat around for two more hours until show B called the jersies.

Show B Results

~Rudy - Sr. Self Buck - BOG

~Zirconium - Jr. Self Buck - BOG, BOV

~Veyla - Sr. Self Doe - BOG, BOSV

~Amethyst - Jr. Shaded Buck - BOG, BOSV

~Annabelle - Sr. Shaded Doe - 2nd BOG

~Sgt. Pepper - Broken Tooth DQ

Ashes (Kelsey's) - Light toenail DQ (it has some pigment so it depends on the judge =/ hopefully it'll darken)

Then we packed up and headed home. Great day =D

Out next show is in Ontario March 27.

Countdown to springtime shows!

Next saturday is the Snake River R&CC double youth and double open show. I still haven't decided who to enter where here's who I'm taking.

Higbee's Rudy - Self sr. Buck

Higbee's Sgt. Pepper - Tan Pattern sr. Buck

Higbee's Annabelle - Shaded sr. Doe

Treasure Valley's Veyla - Self sr. Doe

Treasure Valley's Amethyst - Shaded jr. Buck

Treasure Valley's Moonstone (For Sale) - Self jr. Buck

Treasure Valley's Malachite (For Sale) - Self jr. Buck

I think Veyla and Amethyst are the best at the moment. Though Veyla is finishing a molt, she will hopefully come in condition in time so she can earn a third leg and I can grand her. I want to enter her in all four shows. If she wins BOB in jersey for youth she will have a good chance at placing in BIS since there are only a few breeds competing for youth.

Rudy was looking beautiful last week until he started a molt! I think I will enter him in both open shows but that's it.

I will enter Amethyst in Both open and one youth. Moonstone is entering both youth. I'm only using him to raise the class number. I may enter him in open to raise the class as well.

Sergeant Pepper and Annabelle are going in both open.

Malachite is just coming for the ride :) and to be sold; although I believe we already have a inquiry for him though no deposit yet.
