Let's learn a little bit about rabbits through the eyes and wisdom of a child. When was the
first time you showed rabbits? When I was one years old. One? Oh, come on. I'm serious.
You were a one year old rabbit shower? Yeah. That's fabulous. I even have my picture. And
you've been showing ever since. And how old are you now? I'm Ten. Ten? Ten years of rabbit
shower. That's excellent. I've had rabbits all my life. That is great. Tell me about
this breed. Is that a Chinchilla? Chinchilla Mini Satin. Mini Satin. Why is it called a
Mini Satin? Because of the hair color and the texture of the hair? It is the texture,
it's not the color. Oh, I see. And also, Chinchilla Mini Satins are really hard to find. What's
her name? Is it a he or a she? It's a girl, and its name is Polly Pocket because she usually
rides in my pocket. Polly Pocket. May I hold her? Yeah. Oh, that's great. Thank you. Look
at her, she's tiny. Is she full grown? Nope. Oh, she's a baby. Yep, she's only one month.
She's really calm. Do you hold her a lot? No, I just play with her and sit around. Oh
yeah, yeah. I just take her out of the cage. Do you get her out of the cage a couple times
a day? Yeah, and I just go over there and sit there. Tell me how Polly Pocket may do
today? Polly Pocket, she's probably going to do well because of her arch. She doesn't
have that long lean body. Right. So, you really want to look for that arch. Oh, I see. You
don't want that drop right there. Right. But other than that she's going to do well. And
her ear length is very important? Yeah. Judges will look at the ear length, won't they? Yeah,
and her–you don't' want any teeth to be chipped, or any toenails to be missing because
that is a DQ. I see, then you'd be disqualified. Yeah, she looks like a very fine rabbit to
me. She's so beautiful. Do you want to hold her? Yes. Hey, I like your apron, by the way.
It's got a rabbit on it. Yep. That's pretty cool. It's a Florida White. A Florida White.
That's very good. Well, I hope Miss Polly Pocket wins grand champion. Me too. I really
hope so. Good luck. Hey, we got a lot going on, both on and off the farm. If you're enjoying
