Dpn't worry about being hard on her. I just wanted to see if it was worth showing her. She was a trade to me for a baby of mine from a long since past litter, I am getting out of Mini rexes for a different reason, but she's a cutie and I LOVE blue otters.

I firmly don't believe she's posed correctly. She's approximately 14 weeks old, broken blue otter. This was her first attempt at posing and I'm starting to take a bit more control of her weight, she's a hair chubby.

Gwenyth does have a full butterfly, ears are solid, color down to her tail and a couple spots on her butt. She has both eye's surrounded by color. Nails are all white and gorgeously strong for her age. I would like to see what other breeders/showers think of her.

Like I said, critique please? Be as hard as you like on herd, I'm very open to ideas of if I should bother to show her. Normally I show just my dutch, but I want to get a few more shows under my Holland BUck(and one doe) to see hwo they do down here in KY., a few under my New Zealands justso I pay attention to how they should be type wise(and to see more reds! Love my Red Doe).Now I'm getting a trio of English Spots for show and other so if she's not worth showing IE lack of color,or otherwise, I won't worry abouttatooing her and fitting her in to a show schedule.
 
Okay. I'm going to crit hard, because I'm mean. LOL...

and I'm no MR expert, but this is what I see, from what I know:

She's WAY overposed. Correctly posed, I'd imagine she's very long in body and/or shoulder.

Long in ear to balance at this time, but she's just a baby. Very small head to balance... I would have liked to see it come in by now. =/ But there's still time.

Hmn.
 
First of all, she is improperlly posed-her hind feet are far too bunched forward for her full arch to be showing.

Her ears look a little on the long side and she could use some filling in on her mid section, and she is a little square in the rump.

However, she is still young and still has some developing to do :)
 
She looks to have good depth of body and her ears should match her depth. Her ears should not go over max length if they are not already over. I have found that my rabbits ears stop growing after about 3 months old. She looks like she needs to have a little fuller loin and HQ but that could be the picture. It's a tough age to judge them because they are usually gangly and this age.
 
Okay, I will try to re-pose her tomorrow and get better pictures. I'm kind of starting to wonder on my juniors, many of them I don't feel I'm posing well or correcxtly at all, so hence the reason for posting so many of them(I have two dutch boys up now too).
I feel like I've just lost my touch somewhere
