*Prices reflect on the quality of the animal(s) and do not change. Show and Brood Quality animal(s) are priced accordingly and can change if, for example, animals have been shown, proven/reproduced, number of wins and awards(legs). Show and Brood animals will not be charged at a pet quality price. If you are wanting a show/brood animal and wanting them as a pet, these particular animals will NEVER be charged at a pet quality price! I determine the quality of the animals that I produce. Please understand that these are my opinions and my evaluations of the animals and not a judge’s perspective. Please do your own research before you get into showing or breeding as there are a lot of information and tips that need to be taken seriously.
Pet Quality: Pet quality animals are animals that are not meant to be shown or bred. They are deemed not show worthy or brood worthy. Rabbits that end up pet quality are ones that are unshowable or do not fit the breed standards for a particular breed. Examples: Disqualifications or genetic undesirables that affect breeding or showing. A genetic undesirable example is a split penis. Animals that have genetic undesirables or disqualifications should NEVER be bred or used in a breeding program! Pet Quality rabbits from King’s Rabbitry will NEVER come with a pedigree and are priced at a much lower price than my brood/show stock! *Brood Quality: Brood quality animals are animals that end up being unshowable due to being overweight, having disqualifications like missing tooth/teeth, missing toes/toenails, mismatch nail colors, color etc but are still able to be used in a breeding program. Brood quality animals have the ability to produce quality animals. I cannot guarantee that brood animals have the ability to produce etc but still could make a good breeding rabbit if used correctly. Brood quality animals are a great addition and are very helpful animals in anyone’s breeding program! *Show Quality: Show quality animals are deemed show worthy which means that these particular animals are free of disqualifications and fit their breed standard. Show animals still have faults that can be easily fixed by breeding them to another animal that compliments the animal. These animals usually have great qualities such as type, mass, bone, color etc. These are the animals that I would feel comfortable with putting on the show tables and getting a judge’s opinion. Any show quality animals are kept in my care until 4 months old when I begin my evaluation. *Show quality and brood quality animals are kept until 4-6 months old and I begin my evaluation. If any animal that I feel is worthy of being put on the show tables, I will try to enter and bring them to any shows that I am attending. Most animals that end up being show quality or brood quality will most likely end up being for sale. I can’t keep everything but I will keep ones that I feel that I can use for my breeding program etc. If you are interested in showing and do not where to start, I can help as much as I can! When I evaluate my juniors, I look at type, bone, head/ear/crown set etc. I’m a lot harder on my bucks then I will be on my does so I may not have a lot of bucks for sale but I will from time to time. Does I will have for sale more frequently.
