Show Rabbits at the Fair
The excitement of showing rabbits at the fair is undeniable. Rabbits are a wonderful choice for many because they are more manageable and require less space than many other types of livestock. The fair offers an opportunity for young people to bond with their animals and learn valuable life skills. Come to the fair this year and watch the fruit of their labor!
