How did I delete the whole page?

oops, :oops: anyway. I was trying to get you guys to look the little SF doe I kept. She had the nicest standup fur of the bunch, and...I kinda like the way she's shaped. Still not great at posing, but I'm trying here :D. 15 weeks right now.
I won't use or sell her for a SF brood doe, because I'm serious about wanting lines with no steel, but I still could use the meat and pelts. I was thinking of breeding her to her brother for that (and to see if I can concentrate his fast growth trait), and just refusing to sell any kits off of them. If she has all the colors he does, they could throw me blacks, blues chocolates and lilacs and maybe rew.

What do you guys think, any obvious flaws or DQ's popping out at you?
If she looks alright I can still let the kids take her to an open show or two this summer. We don't have to win, they just like getting out of the house and being around all those buns :lol:
 
flat over the rise and hollow in the middle, however she has good shoulders and even ticking. Take her to the show. You dont know what you are competing against and the opinion of the judge is valuable.
 
AH thanks, they don't like getting DQs, but other than that, well, someone has to be there for others to win against, right ;)
I know that mentality seems silly, but with all those off genes, I don't even consider these lines properly purebred, so wins wouldn't mean a thing to us, but any excuse to just be there and peek at the 1000 different rabbits is worth it. :D Lol, my husband wouldn't agree to drive out there just to look though, and adding #s of competing rabbits helps. If there aren't enough they drop the breeds from the shows. I was only able to show our Lilac last year because someone was sponsoring them I guess.
 
Zass, the key is to get more Lilacs and bring them yourself. And then get the people standing next to you at the show interested in them.....

That's it you know...the key is always more rabbits. I just need a whole lot more holes and everything will be alright :D I can't have small cages though, I like big ones even for medium sized bunnehs, so I have less holes with more space, but somehow I'd like most of them to be larger still cause the more rabbits I have the less time I have to take them out and play with em.
