We made the trek up to Columbus for the Ohio Mini Convention. Taylynn was blessed to win BOSB in Show A under Judge Tammy Benolkin.

Taylynn and Cathy both had a number of Variety wins as well.

We had a great time with friends as always. It was great see some breeders we don't get to see very often.

THIS WILL BE A LONG POST, SO HANG WITH US.

First off we want to say congratulations to all of the winners this weekend at the 2026 ANDRC Nationals in Wichita Falls, TX.

Next we want to say congratulations to our friend Taylor LeBlanc LeBlanc Family Rabbitry for winning BOG Shaded with her tort buck Brutus. She also won BJrOV with her tort Jr Buck. His mom was bred by us and we gave her to Taylor since we don't do torts.

Now for the long part.

Anyone who knows us, knows the struggles we have had with Taylynn's Silver Marten/Chin program. It's been a 4 year road. Completely scratching the whole project and starting over a little over a year ago. Taylynn's mentor Erin Thacker Uhl at Oak Hill Farm had 2 martens pop out in a breeding. She immediately told Taylynn Hilbert they would be hers to help her project. That decision by Erin has been a Godsend. The buck has developed exactly how we thought he would. We had very high hopes for OHF Lies Lies Lies at 2025 ARBA Convention. Unfortunately, he went into a very hard molt before he got there. Move to 2026 ANDRC Nationals, those hopes only gree stronger. And those hopes were met!! "Pinocchio" as we call him won Best of Variety Silver Marten. He went on to win Best Opposite of Group for Tan Group. He also received a vote for Best Opposite S*x of Breed, but fell shirt of that honor. To say the emotions were strong is an understatement. Anybody that knows Taylynn knows how serious she is about her rabbits.

We can't thank Erin enough for taking Taylynn under her wing and mentoring her. We must also thank Michael Garner for mentoring Taylynn too. His knowledge and encouragement are second to none. To know these 2 top notch breeders see something in Taylynn that they are willing to help her still blows my mind.

Thank you to Matt Uhl Orval McLaughlin Corey J. LeBlanc Christy Carter LeBlanc for being in Taylynn's corner too. You guys are the best!!
