Lionhead National Show Pictures and Results!

We had a grand time at our first Lionhead National Show in Columbus Ohio!  It was wonderful to meet breeders from all over the nation and exhibit my own Lionheads.  Below are some pictures of our experience as well as show results!

 Crossing from Michigan into Ohio.  The traffic was extremely heavy and lots of road work made a 4 hour trip into 5 hours.

New Lionhead Babies & Show Results

Our rabbitry is full of little baby Lionheads and there are some gorgeous show prospects in the nesting boxes!  We have 3 blacks, 3 blues, 2 REWs, 1 chocolate, 1 lilac, and 1 shaded.  I plan on keeping the chocolate and one out of Cocoa's litter, and will be watching them develop. 

We exhibited our Lionheads at this show and did very well.  This was our first time showing with this club and I would love to go again next year!  There were beautiful rabbits there and great turnout in the Lionheads!
