I have bunnies born 12-4 and 12-14 that I have been showing.
There is a show coming up June 7 & 8.
Obviously the bunnies born 12-4 will be over 6 months old and be required to show as intermediates.
It is my impression that I can still show the bunnies born 12-14 as juniors at this show. Am I correct?

My intermediates will be the youngest on the table and may not do as well against 9 month old rabbits, however my juniors will be the oldest on the table and probably do much better against younger rabbits. I *think* it would be OK for me to bump them up and show them as intermediates as well. Am I correct?

Another however, I have a dozen very jr rabbits (3.5 mos old) who will be shown the first time at this show and I don't want to wreck any of their chances by showing my much older jrs against them.

BUT...I don't want to wreck the chances of my older jrs losing the possibility of 2nd legs showing against much older intermediates.

Lastly - hypothetically - if there were a double show over 2 days and your rabbits would be 6 mos old on the date of the second show, would / could you show them as jrs the first day, then as intermediates the 2nd day? This isn't happening in this case, just wondering...

WHAT WOULD YOU DO?

....Yes....Juniors at that show

.....Yes... ( i believe You have English lops)... They Can be bumped up providing they meet the weights...

.....Technically...Juniors the First show... 6/8 the Second show... to be absolutely correct and make the legs count.
