Hollands: I don't have Jody's remark cards with me as I type this so I
can only write the placings I recall, but most of his Hollands placed in the top
half of their classes.
I think Domino was the highest placing Holland at 5th in his broken sr. buck
class. Every Holland we have decided to blow their coats just last week
and all looked a mess - so Jody was happy with how high they placed with the
terrible condition they were in!
French Lops: Kelly's French Lops had also gone through the big
moult like the Hollands, but had done so a few weeks earlier so they were
further along in condition and did much better;
French Lop judging was exciting - over 70 rabbits! First, Kelly's solid
sr. buck Thunder won his class and another let despite being in the tail end of
his moult. Kelly's juniors did very well in all their classes; her
solids won their large classes and went on to win BOV and BOSV, then her brokens
did almost as well with Erin going on to win BOB!
We attended the banquet where Kelly took third in the state for French Lop
points (and by only attending 10 shows last season!!!) and she also took first
place in WI with cavies.
Jody only attended about 5 shows last year and showed only a few rabbits so he
knew he was not in the points running for a trophy; I think he fell just outside
of the top ten in WI.
All-in-all, we had a great time at Convention and really made a nice showing
with our rabbits!
Pictures coming soon! |

Kelly did well with her French Lops again - I think it was
Talon, her junior solid buck that won BOS, plus she had some other class wins.
At the Midwest Lop Club show, she has a few class wins with her juniors -she
only brought one senior buck to show, and Thunder was still in a spectacular
molt.
Jody brought a few Hollands, and I believe both his senior solid buck and his
senior broken bucks each placed 3rd in their large classes.
We were parked in the middle of the showroom and mostly I remember how hot it
became in the building - and I kept asking to have the show committee open the
big overhead doors to let the nice breeze come in-but they never did! I'll
certainly remember this next year and be sure to park our rabbits nearer the
doors! |

Just Kelly and I went up to this show...Jody didn't
want to go.
Kelly won BOS again with her junior solid buck,
Talon! This buck is really nice!
Of course, being a junior still, he has been no
match for the pretty senior doe that new exhibitor Steph Anderson bought
from Mr. Z - but Kelly is thrilled with the recent improvements to her own
line - we can't wait till these recent litters develop into seniors!

This kids didn't show on Saturday so I
came to the show as several people were bringing Polish does for me to
look at - I did end up finding some nice black and chocolate does!
At Fox Valley, Kelly sold Twister,
a nice solid junior buck, to Miranda Miller - and it was nice to see
that she showed him today and he won his class and first leg!
On Sunday, just Kelly came to show her
French Lops. Jody stayed home again...
Kelly won BOB and then went on to win
Best 6-Class with LaReau's Erin, a broken 6/8 doe. This doe
just turned 6/8 last week and is just about 12 lbs. She can now be
registered and granded!
Her sister, Emily, placed right
behind her in the class and I think the judge had a hard time picking
which rabbit he liked better.
Fudge won his first leg by
winning his class then winning BOSV too!
Her solid 6/8 doe, Amber, won
her class then BOV. This doe can now be registered and granded too!
Kelly had a lot of rabbits up on the
table at the end. She sold Mattie to a gal who is
starting in French Lops and has a couple of nice bucks from Gary Smith -
Mattie should work well with these bucks - we wish her the best of luck!

Wow, I always forget how dang cold
this show is until I am sitting in the 'cold' room shivering to death!
It was very nice in the fact that only Kelly showed today; Jody was home
ill, and at the last minute I decided not to bring my few Polish, and we
were lucky because French Lops were done by 11:30!
Kind of a strange day showing though
- Bacon won BOS which I didn't really expect! Kelly was happy
though, she almost sold him earlier, but liked him well enough to keep
him. All her rabbits from last summer's litters have just now turned
senior so they weren't as competitive as some of the mature seniors are -
we just need a bit more time for this group.
Jesse Miller picked up Emily
at this show, and Emily placed ahead of her sister, Erin! Well Lop
Nationals is coming but we'll have very few rabbits to show and our
litters will be just a little too young to show - poor planning on
our part I guess. |
