Rusty B Rabbitry

12/31/2023

Long day of driving to Minnesota and back but I was pleased enough to come home with a BOB(Bilbo) and a BOS(Anchovy), with some varieties wins as well. It was the first time out for both these rabbits. Bilbo was in the running for an overall show win, which ultimately went to two deserving rabbits, but I’m very happy with how the day went!

One of Donovan’s homebred junior bucks, Iceberg, we are growing out. He earned 2 legs last month at his first show out. Cant wait to see how he matures!

Shiny reds will always be my favorite!

Rabbit friends - I have a few really nice, show quality rabbits that I’d like to get in someone’s barn before the New Year. Great for Christmas, pets, 4H or getting into show. Everything is pedigreed and has been shown. Willing to be VERY reasonable on pricing, especially for multiple rabbits.

I will work with transport. Located near Portage but get between my area and Madison/Lake Mills/Oconomowoc fairly regularly.

Very long weekend at the Wisconsin State Convention & day after show. It was a challenging last few months with the heat and blowing coats but still very proud of our accomplishments.

BOSV broken- Piccolo
BOV white - Cool Whip

A few rabbits looking to hop. I’ve got a bunch more growing out so if you’re looking for something specific let me know.

1. Junior broken chinchilla buck - I don’t *need* to sell this guy but I also don’t need another buck. Has promising coat but it is still very baby ugly at the moment. His mother and all her babies are very late bloomers but when they finally get their coat it is stunning. (Half siblings won BOB/BOS this weekend and at state fair)

2. Alaska & Igloo - young junior Californian bucks. Weaned and eating great on their own. These two could be some nice show rabbits but I’m keeping their brother.

3. White 6/8 satin buck with 1 leg

May have a broken copper doe that is a sister to the broken chin. Also have a BIG Californian brood doe who throws big litters and is a great mom.

Everything is pedigreed.

Good reminder after getting up at 3:30 for the State Convention.

Most of our rabbits are molting right now which is an absolute bummer and timing but we work with what we have! We’ll see how this weekend goes.

Good day at the Walworth County Fair open show. A good precursor to the state convention next weekend.

Emily’s Satins
BOV black Nox (honorable mention for BOB - he’s for sale 😉)
BOS/BOV broken Victory
BOSV broken Careless Whisper
BOB/BOV White Cool Whip (also for sale 😉)

Donovan’s Californians
1st place junior doe (and honorable mention) Brie
1st place junior buck Ice Cube
BOB Californian Freya

Donovan’s cal was “runner up” for Best 6 Class - he was told if she had darker points(currently in molt) it would have been her hands down. I don’t think Donovan realizes how big of a compliment it is for him to have done so well in OPEN, not you
