Wow! This is THE MOST HONEST, clean and precise rabbit presentation I've heard in quite a while. Thank you, Bryan, for tackling and debunking the rabbit holy grails and for supporting small-herd rabbitries! I was encouraged and re-energized. This video should be shown to EVERY new rabbit breeder in the ARBA. Keep up the good work, guys!

Very good video! Wish he was my neighbor!

🎉 thanks for doing this, and sharing it!

We've had Bryan several times in Shipshi, IN! He makes the youth part of showing fun! We're a small herd so this helps us a lot and I agree with a lot of this! This whole presentation was amazing! Thank you so much for your time, Byran! We hope to see you in March!

We had less than 20 rabbits during 2023 Convention, took 4 rabbits to get comments on and ended up with two Sn does taking 3rd & 6th place. It really helped me feel confident with the quailty of stock I have to work with.

A lot of what he is saying took me 9 years to figure out. I try to keep my does down to 6-7....one breed with 3 somewhat compatable colors. I have about the same number of holes as he does. I try to set a yearly goal to concentrate on. And I don't show unless I have something worth while. I often show up with only 2 rabbits when i do go (less rabbits in quaranteen and less entry fees). I do try to breed for specific shows, and if nothing works out, oh well. I bring in a new buck or 2 maybe every 2-3 years....because it takes a while to blend something in. What they say that 20% of your rabbits produce 80% your keepers.....its true. Every year I track who shows up on everyone's pedigrees on the year's breeders. I can really see everything converging onto just a handful of ancestors.

I really admire your dedication and knowledge to the hobby. We are a small Rabbitry and these are factors that come into play for us. It was great having you judge our Angoras and Hollands at the Burford show in Ontario last weekend! Thank you for taking the time to judge my very first Champagne d'argent after the show. And can't agree more that your rabbits are a reflection of you.

Thank you! I needed this today!

So accurate. I appreciate this as a small hobbyist.

Very good presentation and extremely informative 👏

I have 5 rabbits and think 30 is too many, haha! Looking forward to showing soon. I know I won't win, but hopefully it'll tell me what I need to improve.

Really really helpful and informative. My daughter and I took a lot out if this. Thank you for your time and sharing of knowledge!

I LOVE BRYAN!! 😂 Fantastic presentation!

This was Great thank you

This is so encouraging. As someone with a very small barn myself, I found this incredibly helpful.

Thank you Bryan.. for doing this. I agree with you 100% on depth on body on pictures and facebook. Its is VERY rare to have a deep rabbit that is balanced. The only time I see a SUPER deep rabbit and has a nice well rounded body and nice fur that is a Best in Show rabbit or Best of Breed rabbit at the Nationals.

Great info! Learned a lot for my small herd. BEW Mini Rex project.

What rabbit shows do you come set up the rabbit show booth at?
