This is the "Nutty Buckeye" grooming her French before the show. She was pretty excited to win her first legs and her first BOB all in the same day.

This is Ron, judging the English angoras in Show A.

This is Mike, judging English in Show B.

This is Glen, judging the Satin Angoras in show A. The doe he is evaluating in Somerhill Trieste, a red, who went on to win BOB in both shows. These are her first 2 legs. She also got registered that day, so it was her day to shine.

Somehow, I completely missed taking any pictures of the French Angoras - I guess I was too busy putting rabbits on the table. Oh well. Somerhill Vignette won BOB and her third leg, and also got registered. Somerhill Mercedes Benz won BOS in both shows, so he now has 2 legs toward his championship. Glad I took him - I was reluctant to show him since his wool is stained yellow, but he did well in spite of it.

Wildhare Ruby Slippers got good remarks on type, density and texture, so I'm encouraged by that. She was outclassed in length of wool by both Vignette and the Nutty Buckeye's tort doe who took BOB in show A. I hope that will be just a temporary thing, since this is her first adult coat, and she has only been growing it for about 2 months. Maybe she will be primed for the Ohio Convention in May???
