4-H Requirements

[Heritage Homestead]

Hi,
I am just starting out on the rabbitry road and am wanting to sell to people for 4-H. Does anyone know the requirements for 4-H meat rabbits. I tried to find out on the 4-H website, but I could not find anything. If anyone has a link to the requirements that would be great to.
Thanks,

Will this help? Maybe it varies by state, but a quick google search pulled this up.

I was a 4-h Rabbit chair for wood co. WV for a while and i know that the ohio 4-h was different. Your county 4-h extension officer will be able to provide you with the best info for your county and maybe even your surrounding counties as well as they can all be different.

Near as I can tell, each county (at least in Texas) has its own rules for its shows.

Are you talking for meat pen or just regular showing? I know they have to have the rabbits by May 1st, meat pen rabbits have to be 70 days old and weigh 3.5-5 pounds at the time of the fair, other than that I dont know.

I think the most common in my area is the meat pens, so that is what I'll probably sell for.
Thanks,
