stupid question...

[12lawliet12]

But do you get a copy of the standard of perfection when you become a member of the ARBA? I've been meaning to send in an application but I don't know whether to request the SOP or if it's just a given... I'm completely new at all this. My little Angel Bunny is the first pedigreed show rabbit I've ever had. The one I had growing up, Penelope, was just your run of the mill feed store mini rex and the two others I have are a Craigslist rescue and a feed store netherland dwarf.

No, you do not! You can purchase a Copy of the Standard of Perfection
from most any Rabbit Vender. To Purchase a copy of the SOP
you do not need to be a member of A.R.B.A.,

It's about a $20 book that vendors at shows will sell. However, you do receive a book for caring for rabbits and cavies.

"you do get a book about caring for rabbits and cavies".

Never did. wrote to ask about it too.

One option with the SOP is to purchase last years copy (they make new ones every five years or so). They are generally cheaper and not a whole lot changes twix one and the next, colours are usually added to breeds.

I don't have a clue, but wanted to mention that the only "stupid question" is the one you don't ask

Ok, so how would I go about buying a copy? There's not a whole lot of shows near me.

12lawliet12, on a completely unrelated note, how often have you eaten at Wingos restaurant? I used to raid that place and get torn up by a heaping order or turbo hot wings when I found myself in Panama City.

 

[12lawliet12]

Actually, I've never heard of it. If it's on the beach, I never go over there. My favorite restaurant here is the Captain's Table. They have the best shrimp in town and it's only a 10 minute walk from my house.

It was in the plaza across the bay from Tyndall AFB in Parker, but it's been moved somewhere in PC. I doubt it's on the beach, but they have the best wings I ever put in my mouth.

Tyndall is a ways from me, last time I went there was for my friend's 13th birthday party 6 years ago! I'll look into it, though.
