Cost was raised to $6.00 a year or two ago. 1/2 goes to the ARBA and 1/2 goes to the registrar.dbunni said:I think the cost is $4?
I like dbunni's opinions. Registration doesn't have a lot of merit in the rabbit world, except maybe with newcomers who don't understand it. Which is really sad in a way, because rabbits are one of the few animals -- if not the only one -- that need to be actually examined for quality by a registrar, and registration isn't just based on pedigree. I think most breeders have too many animals to register them all, because of the cost and the hassle. Especially since you may only breed a doe once or twice and sell her.
However, some people do like to keep all-registered herds. And the more generations of rabbits are registered on the pedigree, the better the registration seal you get.
