Are they a 6/8 breed? I thought they were... But I could be wrong. Our fair is middle of August so if I get babies starting now, I may have some for fair to show at. It is an ARBA sanctioned show at ours so it is nice that I can show at it and gain points.

according to the rabbit SOP(which our fair follows) Juniors are under 6 months of age-min-3.75 lbs and max 7.5 lbs; Seniors are 6 months of age and over-7.5 lbs to 10.5 lbs ideal being 8.5 lbs

Oh ok 
I have a 6/8 breed so I have an entirely other class to worry about age and weight mins and max's sigh.

Our Californian's are divided into Junior, Intermediate and Senior classes with weight min/max. we wont have any intermediates this year unless we get juniors that go over weight- wont know until the does hopefully kindle in May...

Yep, I am in the same boat. But I enjoy showin gJr's and that is what I sell mostly. I hope to keep some back until intermediate age before selling but we will see what I get. Never guaranteed an amazing show quality rabbit no matter how great the parents are in French lops or any breed really...

And Georgia was the first!
Georgia had them today, on her due date, and there was 1 DOA and either 9 or 10 healthy babies. Not sure yet. It was too chilly to take them out of the nest this morning and they were still pretty wet. Lilly and Colby, not due until the end of the month, were nesting as well. Lilly did this last time when she was 2 weeks into her pregnancy and Georgia was due she nested then too. Didn't have anything just made a beautiful nest like she was going to.
Any guesses on who will be next? My bet is still Jazmine... LOL!
