Just got back from Butler Fair

[mambo101]

And I must say I once again fell in love the theCreme D'Argents. They reminded me of a slightly smaller version of afawn Flemish. If I was able to have another rabbit it would be at thetop of my list.

I have never even HEARD of that breed... but then again, I didnt know about Flemish until I came to the boards

The Cremes are stunning. I'm judging aCreme specialty show this fall. It's difficult to get a goodphoto of their coat color -- photos on the internet just don't do themjustice.

Wow, they are beautiful Mambo...I can see whyyou fell in love with them! I once owned a Champagne d'Argent (Darcy).She was an impulse purchase, having gone to a local fair to watch thehorse trials, no intentions of coming home with anything...and thenwalking through a section where someone was introducing the breed andselling them as meat rabbits. My heart melted when I saw them and ofcourse, I had to rescue one! LOL. So Darcy came home with me...and shewas an absolute sweetheart.

I know that the Champagnes are a bit unusual in that the babies' coatscome in pure black, but the 'champagne' color develops as they mature.Do you know if this is true of the Cremes?

If you ever do get one you know you'll have to post lots of pics!

 

[pamnock]

Also true of the Cremes -- they are born pure orange, then the "thick cream" mixes in as they age

The ones I saw were "Grand Champions" inthe meat pen category, but when I talk to the breeder she said shewould never sell them as meat rabbits, just for show or pet.

Yeah I know what you mean. I hate it when peopledo that as meat when there are thousands of people and kids walking byto see some buns. It hurts to see those inocent faces of all animals tobe put as meats.

 

And I must say I once again fell in love the the Creme D'Argents**********

Mambo Hon It just so happens I have 2 a Buck andDoe babies in my Barn Theybelong to Half_ Pint , they are forsale should you decide lol theyare stunning little things, tho tend tobe a touch standoffish at times ,

 

[mambo101]

Sorry Gypsy, but my landlord(sister) won't permit any more rabbits. Otherwise I'd take one in a heartbeat.:?

 

I knowHon Im sorry yurlandlords being a meanielol but Iunderstand and If not adoptedout when your ready justgive a PM dear .

 

[mambo101]

She's not really being a meany. It's just a realization that we don't have the room for so many rabbits in such a small house.

 

I know Hon Iwas teasing about being a meany, I know I wish i hadroom enough for every breed of rabbitthere is out there ! Hubbykeeps saying advertise more for adoption, but its so hard to let them go, especially with the not knowing.
