Either it's a cull...
..or we start a COD for broken Dutch...

What do you think, folks?!

We sent 3 Dutch to their new homes on the west coast, with a "small" layover in Indianapolis for the 2025 ARBA Convention - and results are (mostly) in:

JP's Limburger (Wiltshire's Bartson X Jill's Wild Queso Blanco) - 6th place Golden Yellow Sr Buck
JP's Yang (Vasko's V11 X Hilltop Dutch's April) - 2nd place Chinchilla Sr Buck
JP's Platinum (Vasko's V11 X CJ's Myst) - 1st place Chinchilla Jr Doe and BOSV

This is the first time we have exhibited the Chinchilla variety at a national level and are thrilled with how they did! A huge thank you to the breeders who have been so instrumental in helping us build these programs in our herd - we are so grateful to each of you!❤️

You Can't Beat the Dutch!

Another year, and another post-Grand Finals post. Grand Finals, or as I affectionately call it, NYSRBA, is always a starred date on the show calendar for us. Simply put, we love Grand Finals. Four shows over two days with great competition, awards, and judging. A new building at the NY State Fairgrounds in Syracuse did not dampen spirits. We were very fortunate to win some stacked classes, varieties, and even BOB/BOS over the weekend. Highlights and pics below. Thanks to everyone who made the show a great success!

Show A
Gray Junior Buck JP's Caper 1st of 6
Lilac Junior Doe JP's Miss Canada 1st of 6

Show B
Blue Sr Buck JP's Theodore BOV

Show C
Black Jr Doe JP's Partridge 1st of 5, BOSV
Blue Sr Doe JP's Zinnia BOSV, BOSB
Blue Jr Buck JP's Stevens BOV, BOB
Chocolate Jr Buck JP's Omicron BOV
Gray Jr Buck JP's Kane 1st of 6, BOV
Lilac Jr Doe JP's Miss Canada 1st of 6

Congrats go out to Adam and Tanya Parker (BOB Blue Jr Doe in Show A), Karen Coombe (BOS Gray Sr Buck in Show A), Jean and Harold Smith and Katelyn Smith-Conklin (BOB Black Sr Buck in Show B), Sue Marks (BOS Tort Jr Doe in Show B), and Emily Ralph (BOS Blue Sr Buck in Dutch Specialty). We'd be nowhere without these great people who push us to be better rabbit breeders every day.

Is anyone from East PA headed to Westmoreland for the show this Saturday and able/willing to transport a single Dutch Sr Doe?

The 2025 Lebanon Area Fair rabbit show is in the books - and Dutch had a great showing with 8 of the 9 varieties being represented!
Congratulations to Aaron Martin on winning Best of Breed AND Best In Show with a stunning blue doe in Open yesterday.
Today in youth, the kids were honored to win Best of Breed and Best Opposite with a Golden Yellow Jr Buck and Chocolate Jr Doe respectively. Additionally, Augustus Gloop (GY Jr Buck) was chosen for Best In Show!
Congratulations to all the winners from both shows - all truly beautiful animals!!!
A HUGE thank you to our esteemed judges, Mary Ellen Stamets and Ally Rudy - as well as the entire rabbit committee - John Graybeal, Amber Wagner & Tyler Wagner, Vanessa Stickler, Nathan Graybeal (I apologize if I missed anyone) for truly making this a fantastic fair experience for both open and youth exhibitors alike.
We took the opportunity to snap a multi-generational photo - something I will cherish forever❤️
You Can't Beat the Dutch!!!

John Mock Family Rabbitry has the following cage units available (all three stacks):

18" x 24" (multiple units available)
24' x 24" (multiple units available)
30" x 30" (one unit available)

All units (again, all three-stackers) include trays and have been in use in our barn within the past month, but all need work. Some need more work than others. For this reason we are willing to make folks a pretty good deal.

DM if interested. Must pick up in Lebanon County, PA. No exceptions...we cannot deliver. Pics are representative and not of specific units individually.

Came into the barn this am to find two first-time dwarf does had killed 5 newborn kits (didn't even have a chance to foster), so made myself feel better by playing with previous spring litters. It was sort of succesful. No word yet on if trying to pose 5-10 week NDs will become a trial Olympic event.

Have a great Tuesday everyone.

In Augusta NJ last weekend RGC JP's Tinkerbell (Lilac Sr Doe) finished her show career in style, winning BOV lilac in the Dutch specialty show Saturday morning to earn her 12th show leg and being named Best of Breed on Sunday morning under judge Daniel Barrett to earn her 13th and final show leg.

Lots of "records" were set here. First of all, this was our first ever breed win in the relative new lilac variety, and we couldn't be more proud. Second...Tinkerbell...this doe has been such a joy...in her 13 months of life she has accumulated 13 show legs, the most in our rabbitry's history for a Dutch of any variety. But never had she won breed. BOV, BOSV, BOSB, top five as both a junior (convention) and a senior (National Dutch Show) at the National level. But never a BOB. With a flair for the dramatic, Tinkerbell waited until the last show she was entered in to get it done.

As a reward, she'll become a brood doe for us. We may fill Tinkerbell's spot on show team, but we'll never replace her.

Thanks to Mackenzie Kratzsch and her amazing team for a great weekend and congrats to the other BOB/BOSB Dutch breeders (Sheila Wiltshire's Black Sr Doe, Blue Sr Buck, and Blue Sr Doe...the woman has so many hot rabbits right now it's tough to keep track; Jeff and Julie Brown's Black Sr Buck; Karen Coombe's Black Sr Buck, and Jean Smith and Family's Tort Sr Buck)

Had a great time this past weekend at Grand Finals in Syracuse, NY. The state rabbit group in NY was very welcoming, and we were thrilled to make it back to Grand Finals again. Grand Finals (or as we affectionately call it, NYSRBA), is a big deal, with lots of great breeders and exceptional looking rabbits. As such, we were honored that JP's Tinkerbell (Lilac Jr Doe) was selected BOSB in show A and the Dutch Specialty show and that JP's Tempest (Blue Jr Doe) was selected BOSB in Show C. Pictures are below. We were especially thrilled to win our first BOB or BOSB in the relatively new lilac variety.

Congrats go to Karen and Becky Coombe (BOB in Show B with a gorgeous Lilac Sr Doe) and Jean and Harold Smith and Kate Smith-Conklin who earned BOB with a Black Buck in Show A (he's a handsome devil) and BOSB in Show B and BOB in Show C and the Dutch Specialty Show with two different tort bucks that are just incredible animals in every way.

One thing to note in the pictures below are the AWESOME awards Grand Finals and the people at NYSRBA invest in for BOSB honorees. Trophies and plaques...beautiful handmade decorations...my gracious. For all of our District 9 friends, we cannot recommend enough that you really make every effort to attend Grand Finals. We doubt you will regret it. Great people, great rabbits, great competition, great friends, great awards, and great judging. Thanks again to all who made it possible.

Happy 4th of July, fellow rabbit breeders! In celebration, pictured below are the first EVER Chinchilla Dutch born at John Mock Family Rabbitry. These rabbits are out of a doe we obtained from Cassie and Ashlyn Manger and a buck from Carol Vasko, so we must thank them first and foremost. Also, none of this would be possible without the hard work of Renee Snider. Hopefully one of these cuties is nice enough to see a show table in the Fall. Happy Independence Day!

We are honored and thrilled that JP's Tangerine, Golden Yellow Jr Doe, was awarded BOV in her very first show today! Can't wait to watch this doe develop🙂
