🐇✨ Convention Prep Update! ✨🐇

I’m a few days late posting, but all of my Convention hopefuls just got their second dose of topical ivermectin! The timing — about three weeks before the show — helps protect them from any mites they might pick up while traveling or at Convention, and it also gives them a boost to push out their prime coats right on schedule.

We’re also starting our intensive grooming routine this week. I use a high powered blower (cool air only) to blow out coats, then run lightly dampened hands through the coat before blowing out again. This helps:
🌀 Remove dead hair and skin
💧 Distribute natural oils through the coat
🌿 Stimulate healthy skin and coat growth

I do this three times a week for the month leading up to the big show — it really helps bring out that beautiful finish!

Now’s the time to keep everything consistent and minimize stress:
✅ Stick with the same feed
✅ Keep cages the same (just clean as usual!)
✅ Avoid unnecessary changes or handling
✅ Let them relax and bulk up before the trip to Convention

Can’t wait to see everyone — and everyone’s rabbits — looking their best in Indy! 💙🐇

🐇✨ NSFRC Auction Donation! ✨🐇

I’m excited to share that I’ll be donating RRR’s Agamemnon to the NSFRC auction this year! 🖤

Agamemnon is 5.5 months old and already has all the legs for his Grand Champion — he just needs a little more age and weight to finish out. He also carries chocolate and tort!

He’s a special one, and I’m proud to have him representing my barn. Can’t wait to see who takes him home! 🙌

✨🐇 Convention Update! 🐇✨

Friends! Our plans for Convention have changed a bit — instead of flying rabbits in, we’ll now be sending six rabbits on transport!

I’ll still be flying in Friday and heading home Tuesday, and I’ll have a few animals available for hands-on sales only. I may even be on the lookout for a few new additions to bring home myself 😉

Can’t wait to see everyone in Indy for the 102nd ARBA Convention! 💙✈️🐇

✍️ The 5 Ps:
👉 Proper preparedness prevents poor performance.

A judge recently shared this reminder, and it couldn’t be a better time! We’re 7 weeks out from Convention 🐇✨ — and now’s the time to get herds dialed in.

This past weekend my rabbits got a round of ivermectin to knock out mites and help push those fresh coats. They’ll get another dose 3 weeks before showtime to keep them protected while traveling and on the tables.

✔️ Routine now = polished rabbits later.
What’s on your prep list this week?

🐇 How do you tell foster kits apart when they all look the same? 👀

When I foster kits into a new litter (especially ones of the same color), it can be tricky to tell them apart. My simple solution? Sharpie in the ear!

🖊️ Pic 1: Freshly marked ear — bold and easy to spot.

🕐 Pic 2: The same marking 10 days later — faded but still visible.

This quick, harmless method makes it easy to:
✔️ Track foster kits in look-alike litters
✔️ Keep an eye on ones I’m evaluating
✔️ Make sure everyone is accounted for and thriving

🌟Whats your favorite trick for keeping track of fosters?

🚨 Rabbits are more than just a pretty color! 🚨

We’ve all been caught up in color at some point — it’s exciting, it’s fun, and it’s easy to get distracted. But the key is not letting color cloud your judgment when you’re working to improve your herd.

In my barn, body type always comes FIRST. After that, fur quality comes second (because Silver Fox are a fur breed). Only then do I even look at color.

A flashy tort or lilac might catch the eye, but if that rabbit doesn’t have the right body and fur — it doesn’t stay, and it doesn’t get sold.

I love breeding the fun colors, but I refuse to put “cute” over quality. If I wouldn’t proudly keep it for show, I won’t pass it on to someone else.

👉 Type is the foundation, fur is the finish, and color is just the icing on the cake. That’s how we protect and improve our breeds. 🐇

A couple of my current grow outs/convention hopefulls 🖤💙 Really exciting to see my project lines competing side by side with my main lines. These guys got great comments at MRCA yesterday, though they are still babies and need some more time to cook!

Of course in both of these litters I like the bucks more than the does 🙄

Oh she's a special little thing 🖤

RRR's Harmonia is 5m and has all the legs to be granded (Jr and int!). She won BOB in the Silver Fox Specialty hosted by MRCA today and got great comments. Very excited to see how she matures over the next few months, and can't wait to see her babies this winter 🤞🏻
