Jacob had an awesome weekend at the Tis the Season Benefit Rabbit Show hosted by the Florida State Rabbit Breeder's Association in Inverness, FL! 🎄🐇 With so many beautiful rex and tough competition, he had some great wins to celebrate.

In Youth Show A, Jacob’s white junior doe, Sandy Pine's Jaina, took Best of Breed under Judge Terry Fender. In Youth Show B, the same doe shined again with another Best of Breed, and his senior otter buck, Sandy Pine's Cole, earned Best Opposite S*x of Breed under Judge Jim Rowland.

Congrats to all the exhibitors for a fantastic day and to the club for hosting such a successful show. Next stop: the Florida State Convention in Bushnell, FL, on January 10–11.

Jacob had a good day in Fanning Springs today. (You know it was cold if this kid was wearing a hoodie!) He got some helpful comments on several of his rabbits and received Best Opposite S*x of Breed in both youth shows.

The next show is the FSRCBA Benefit Show in Inverness on December 7th. (https://www.facebook.com/share/1AT7WKXtgk/) We hope to see lots of you there. If you are interested in attending/showing and have questions, please feel free to reach out. We're always happy to help!

It's a chilly day for the Southland Rabbit Club's Fall show. The thermometer said 35° when we woke up this morning! 🥶 Best of luck to all exhibitors today!

We work with reliable transports in our area, with stops in Brooksville, Spring Hill, and Dade City/San Antonio, FL. If you’re unfamiliar with transport, we’re happy to offer recommendations—just note that all arrangements are the buyer’s responsibility.

We hope everyone is staying safe in the aftermath of Hurricane Milton. We wanted to provide an important update regarding our rabbitry. Unfortunately, we sustained significant damage and losses, and we will remain closed for the foreseeable future. Thankfully, we were able to move some of our show rabbits into the house ahead of the storm.

At this time, we do not have a clear estimate on when we will have rabbits available again. As a family, we are carefully evaluating the situation and discussing the future of our rabbitry.

We sincerely appreciate your understanding, support, and patience as we navigate this challenging time.

Due to the impending arrival of Hurricane Milton, our rabbitry will be unavailable until further notice. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of our friends, family, and fellow breeders in the storm’s path. Please stay safe, and we’ll keep you updated as we ride this out. 🌧🙏

Jacob had a great time at the Hopping into Fall Rabbit Show in Dover, FL, hosted by the Central Florida Rabbit Breeder's Association. His senior black otter buck, Sandy Pine’s Cole, took Best of Breed in Youth Shows A and C, and Best Opposite of Breed in Show B. He also snagged Best Opposite of Breed in Youth Show C with his amber doe, Tuck’s Away. Big congratulations to our friend, Ellie, and her beautiful polish rabbits as well! Well done!

Hats off to all exhibitors and the club for another great event. Now, just hoping Hurricane Milton doesn’t shake things up too much before the next show around Thanksgiving!

Better late than never! We’ve spent the past few days securing everything here at the farm and are ready for the storm. Sending our best to all our friends and followers in the path of Hurricane Helene—stay safe, stay strong!

Today, the Florida State Rabbit and Cavy Breeder's Back to School Youth Benefit Show took place in Inverness, FL. Although the turnout was smaller than usual and we missed seeing some familiar faces, the youth did a fantastic job running a smooth and successful event. Jacob was thrilled and pleasantly surprised with the results of the day. He's already looking forward to his next show at the end of September or the beginning of October.

We're feeling a little sleepy this morning, but hoping for a good show today at the FSRCBA Back to School Youth Benefit show.

Best wishes to all exhibitors!

Today was long, fun day at the Mid Florida RBA's Red, White, and Bunny summer show in Inverness, FL. It was a great opportunity to meet several judges we hadn’t encountered before, offering fresh insights on our rabbits. Jacob and his rabbits earned Best Opposite in all three youth shows—twice with his homegrown senior black otter buck and once with his junior amber doe from Mike Tucker.

Jacob is looking forward to the next show on August 3rd, also in Inverness. It’s a great chance to support our local youth, and we hope to see everyone there!
