Such a beautiful day, perfect for the bunnies at the Mooroolbark Community Garden Market with Gabby from Ribbontail Rabbitry organising the bunny stall as well as with Tonveldia Rabbit Stud.

We had 6 beautiful bunnies to share with the public and talk about rabbit showing and sharing the bunny love.

We had our own Coriander (himalayan coloured Netherland Dwarf), and WizzFizz (seal point coloured Jersey Wooly). They were very well behaved and I was very impressed with the public as well. Everyone was so respectful and friendly.

Thank you guys for the fun day, and spending such time chatting all things bunnies. I don’t think a Sunday could be spent any better! 💕

I’m sure there’s one or two more but we are more than likely picking these guys and gals for now to retain and grow out.

A little unexpected with today’s results! But I am very pleased with how my nethies have been going recently, feeling proud of sticking with them. Especially with my Himalayan nethies!!!

We also had in attendance Fernwood CherryOnTop, and Fernwood Porridge, who are both chocolate himalayan coloured Netherland Dwarfs. We received wonderful feedback on all bunnies, particularly about Anchovy.

All in all, proud of how Starshine went today, for being exactly 10wks old I suspect he has a bright future ahead for him. Very happy to see my Himalayan nethie efforts slowly paying off.

Wowzers, what a day! The rain nearly put us off from going to the show, but all in all, we enjoyed a long day out with the bunnies and chatting with everyone!

Particularly enjoyed the chicken noodle soup for lunch! Thank you, Diana!!😋

We did have a show team of six entered, but unfortunately, three of them decided to make a great big mess in the morning! So we only had Cherry, Ronan, and Edith in attendance today.😁

How exciting! We at Fernwood Rabbitry are the Secondary Certificate holders for the Breed in Development of Plush Netherland Dwarfs in Australia. 🎉

This is with the Australian National Rabbit Council Inc. (ANRCI).

Special thanks to Jane from PlayLops Rabbitry for helping out and sharing this project with us, she has some lovely Plush Netherland Dwarfs and very happy to be working on this project with her. She is the Primary Certificate holder, so do head over to her group page and see how hers are looking if you haven’t yet! 😁❤️

Now to see where this takes us, and hopefully our current kittens from Squid and Arche’s Plush Nethie litter grow into little cuties. 🥰
