TRI ?

[bluemini]

Andd i didnt say ALL babys will be that way , i ment that with broken to solid you have better chances of getting broken , or at leat it worked with me and thats what the site said . Every rabbit is diffrent so you never know . My white doe was bred with a broken black and had 3 broken,2 white, and a black .

broken to broken does not always beget broken ... proof is in the box right now ... broken to broken produced ... 4 broken, 2 solid blks, 2 solid whites ... parents & gparents are broken. This is not an unusual outcome. Since we need to breed solid into the broken genetics at least in the 3rd generation to cut down on the possibilities of charlies and mismarked animals. Genetics is often as random as a shotgun. Broken to solid can produce all of one, none of the other, or any combination in between. In angoras I get a giggle out of people who check the computer genetic programs for what they will get and then are confused when they get nothing it said! Mother nature still has the last laugh!

My point was that according to the site , you get MORE broken , not all broken .

It's out there ... ask the hard questions. I would try to find a set of tris that have at least one parent or grandparent that are tris. This way you know the gene is strong.

Im looking but no one really raises them around here and the woman i usually get them from just sells that at trade days next month and in april so guess I will make the 3 hour trip there to get some . Ah its worth it I guess . I dont think she has TRIs anymore though so i guess I will just get a broken unless someone else there has some quality rabbits, but you have to be careful when getting them there,in april I went and some teens was selling 8 or so litters that were 4 weeks old ,really sad and was putting hats on them...thats the first time I ever heard a rabbit scream :/

ARBA Nationals are in Indy this year. You could get an animal/animals shipped in there from almost anywhere across the country. This is a great time to look. plus there are people heading all points this direction that are willing to transport... or you could go up to indy and visit! Just a thought.

X2. The show in Indy, what I read and hear, is HUGE. I'm going to the one in Mullica Hill, NJ on September 17th. Looking forward to seeing my first ARBA sanctioned show. Hope to learn a lot, meet a lot of breeders and show people, and hopefully get a real gist of what Showing is all about.

For anyone who wants to get involved in showing, go to a show and experience it.

Okay we dont have shows around here ? I havent even heard of that before except from that breeder in ohio and i couldnt do what you guys are talking baout cause thats over 5 hours away i know, probley farther , I will probley get one at trade days cause there are some good breeders there just have to look out ya know, healthy,papers etc . I would go to the breeders home ,cause I have been there plenty of times but she wont sell any until trade days is over ,never has for some reason . When I first met her she wasnt a person I would reccomend im not gonna lie but that was years ago and she is a very great breeder now , the last papered one i got from her was from angels rabbitry or something, never heard of it until then but some nice looking bunnys ! \

Oh and these wont be show rabbits because no shows around here
