Washington PA show results

 I decided to return to the Washington PA show after a few year's hiatus.    We had 15 Frosties entered.  For Show A,  Diana Keisel had BOS with her JR doe, and Lorry Jankowski had BOB with her SR buck. Judged by Nita Butler.   In show B, Linda Berkebile had BOB with her SR doe, and Lorry's SR buck was BOS.

Rose Arbor Ethne

Dori Smith wanted her doe, Blue Chip, back, so we traded for Bre.  She sweetened the pot by breeding her to GrCH Rose Arbor Mark, BIS at the first CF nationals and top pointed buck in the country before he was sold at auction for $1400 and took off for Alaska.  
I got a lovely litter from him; 3 bucks and 2 does.   I have retained 2 does;Ellen and Ethne, and a buck, Enzo.  The other 2 bucks are with dear friends so they are safe and available to me if needed.   Ellen has already won BOS 3 times for 3 JR legs in stiff competition.  This is lovely Ethne at 5 months.  


Newbies

 Somerhill Arlo and Rose Arbor Bre welcome 3 new Frosties, born just before midnight on 3-11-24.

 Fun with friends at the show in Springfield, OH today.  There were 23 Frosties entered by 7 exhibitors: 5 SR bucks, 4 SR does, 5 Jr bucks, and 9 Jr does. We had a great time, and Annette and I grabbed lunch/dinner together before we headed home.  Picture is of friends Nikki, (me), Annette and Lisa M.

Somerhill Knight Sky

 Sky is a beautiful copper doe.  I have not shown her since I bought her back this winter.  She is all dressed up for a show next weekend.

Fun new piece of spinning equipment

 This is my new electric ball winder.  It works really well, and certainly saves wear and tear on hands and arms.  I am really pleased with it.

First show of the new year results

Had fun at the quad show and Frosty specialty in Richmond IN this weekend.  Friend Lisa M and I rented a house to stay over. 

 We had 31 entered by 7 exhibitors, so big classes.   My rabbits did well overall; most of the time we were in the top 5.  The big news is that Rose Arbor Ellen, my JR doe, was BOS in 3 of the 5 shows!  That is Ellen on the left.  

The top four, vying for BOB.
