I went to a rabbit show in Doncaster racecourse to pick up my new rabbit from a breeder and show judge. Since it was my first ever time to go to a rabbit show, I was quite excited. More so cause I was picking up my pet rabbit, been a long time since I last had a rabbit.
The rabbits are housed in their cages waiting for judging time. Here we can see Rufus and Tan Belgian Hares.
The show judges were working hard to distinguish each of the same breeds. They do look like clones of each other. The best rabbit usually have the required characteristics. We have Dwarf Netherlands on the table, one of the smaller rabbit breeds.
Here we can see several Polish Albino rabbits on the judging table. They are quite rare as I haven't seen much Polish rabbits for sale.

A Rabbit Jumping Show is also hosted here, which was a delight to watch.
This rabbit did quite well, clearing all the jumping poles.
This is the rabbit father of the baby rabbit that I brought home.
Bringing my new rabbit home, a Mantle Belgian Hare. On the journey back home.
He seems to be good natured and friendly already, only met a few hours ago.
He arrived home to relax on the sofa before retreating to his rabbit bed.
