2023 ARBA Millbrook Fair Show
What a day! Another fun fair show with beautiful sunny weather. We brought back our main team of whites: BerMah Maurice, Electric Iroc, Electric Uncle Buck, and his sister Electric Unity. We also brought a couple of up and coming babies. Mary was back with her team of whites: BerMah MyMy, Fancy Pricilla, BerMah Misty, and Fancy Elvis.
In our first show under judge John Richter, Electric Unity finally beat her aunt BerMah MyMy and won Best of Variety as well as Best of Breed. Her brother Electric Uncle Buck beat all the other boys and took Opposite Sex of Variety and Breed.

In our second show under judge Mark Stewartson, Electric Unity once again beat her aunt but this time took 2nd place to her brother who was awarded Best of Variety and Breed! However the best news came at the end of the day. Electric Uncle Buck took home the Best In Show award! Our first ever Best In Show and I couldn't be more happy or proud of how this boy has been doing.
The angoras are always a big hit with the visiting public. Many times throughout the day I hear "It's so fluffy!" or "Is that a real rabbit?". People always stop and watch when ever the angoras are out on the grooming table getting blown out or brushed.
When the show was over, I did an angora shaving demo. Maurice was ready to have his coat taken off.
Iroc got his haircut the next day at home. The two older boys get to be naked for the summer while they regrow their coats. In the mean time, Unity and Uncle Buck continue to grow their beautiful show coats! I can't wait to see them in their fully grown senior coats.
