I've got a fair pretty close, but you have to leave your rabbits there all week. I guess that getting legs is the main push for showing, but premiums are the push for putting your rabbits on display for the public. The fair premiums don't seem to be worth much in terms of gas money. I guess if you took a whole barn full of rabbits it could add up.

I think this year we might just go watch. We only have two pair now but maybe next year. So, my main question is, what exactly do you have to do to show? Do you just bring them to the table and let the judges do all of the examining? If that is the case should you get your rabbits used to being examined, setting up an so-forth?
If you go to an ARBA sanctioned show, that also has a breed sweepstakes, it seems like you have to be a member of the respective breed club to participate in the sweepstakes. Do you have to be a member of the respective breed clubs for any other reason? How many have to be present to "make it official", and is that number for each class or just total for the breed?
I guess I can find out a lot by just going, but it seems like maybe going to a show would be a lot more enjoyable than having to leave your rabbits on display all week.
