Rabbits

The mini 4-H rabbit project is designed to provide an opportunity for mentorship and learning about rabbits as show animals.

This project if for youth who are currently in Kindergarten, First or Second grade as of January 1^st of the current year. Workshops will be held in conjunction with the 4-H rabbit project and mini 4-Hers are encourages to attend.

All Mini 4-Hers will need to complete Fair Entry during the designated time as communicated by the Extension Office, when completing Fair Entry the mini 4-Her will simply select Mini 4-H rabbits and provide the requested information.

Exhibitors in the Mini 4-H rabbit project may exhibit 1 animal. Animals will not be judged and placed like in a traditional show, however Mini 4-Hers will bring their rabbit to the tables for a special Mini 4-H class where they will interact with the older 4-H members and judges to get more feedback and information on their animal.

If a mini 4-Her has their own rabbit they wish to bring to the fair they will be assigned a coop space next to an older 4-Her that will serve as their mentor and helper during the week. This older mentor will also be responsible for helping on show day.

If a mini 4-Her does not have their own rabbit they can still participate, the need to reach out to the superintendents to be paired with a mentor that is willing to share their rabbit on show day.
