Correction & litters

Just got my show report for the Monroe show, and found out my dad told me the wrong rabbit won BOS in show A. He said Piper won it, when it was really Revolver. Verified with another breeder already, just to make sure the show report wasn't wrong, lol.
I have 3 does due within the next few days-- Ladybug, Sasha, and Cover Girl. All are bred to Rimfire.
Bred 5 does today:
Aurora x Desperado
Sushi x Stryker
Revlon x Revolver
Zoe x Bazooka
Jill's Wild Blue Venus x Bentley

Kennewick Show

Kennewick show didn't go so well for the Dutch. Nobody got any placements worth mentioning. Show A, BOB went to Beth with a Gray buck, BOS going to Pete's Black doe. We left before Dutch were finished in show B, so not sure who won. Were able to get home by 8pm! (almost a 4 hour drive for us)
For the Silver Martens, in show A one of our Black jr does won her class of 5 and BOSV, however there were only 2 breeders. Stormy was BOV Blue for his 4th leg.
For show B, our Black doe was 2nd, and Stormy was BOV again, for his 5th leg. Rainy was BOSV Blue, and should get a leg.
Maryann was BOB both shows with a Black buck. Show A, a Blue doe was BOS, not sure of the owner. Jean was BOS in show B with her Black doe from last week.
Next show is Yelm on November 8th. I'll be judging at it.

Monroe Show

The Monroe show last weekend was a good show. My rabbits surprised me and did better than I expected. I only showed four Dutch, three of which each won two legs!
Revolver (Black sr buck), despite being in a horrible molt, won BOV both shows. These are his second and third legs, so he's now a Grand Champion!
Rodeo (Black jr buck) was 2nd place in both shows
Piper (Blue sr doe) won her class in both shows. In show A, she also won BOSV and BOS! She is now a Grand Champion also!
It was DDAC's (Blue jr doe) first show, and she won her class of 9 in both shows, for her first two legs. In show B, she was BOSV, beating out Piper.
Show A BOB was won by Vicki with a Chocolate buck, with BOS being Piper.
Show B BOB went to Pete's Blue jr buck that won big last weekend, with BOS going to his Black doe.
There were 15 Silver Martens. Stormy was BOS both shows, so he should be getting two legs, which means he's now granded! Rainy was BOV show A, and BOSV show B. Have to wait for my show report to know if there's enough for a leg.
Jean won BOB both shows with a Black doe.
I end up judging at the show. Had all lops in show A (French, English, and Mini's). Show B, I only had Mini Rex.
Morgan went to live with Mike & Leslie.
Tri-Cities show in Kennewick is this Saturday. We'll be leaving Friday afternoon. We're carpooling with Reni and her dad (who btw just worked her last show for her registrar's license!). I get to be just an exhibitor at this show, so am looking forward to that. Rimfire, Porshe, and Tessa will all be going with a transporter to Spokane, so their buyer in Montana can pick them up. Nicole and I also have three Silver Martens leaving at this show to go to convention, to meet up with their buyers from Wyoming.
Speaking of Silver Martens, we currently have two litters, a total of 16 babies. Five of those are Blacks! We will have several available around Thanksgiving.
