Rabbit show in Bad Saulgau: Breeders present their champions!

On October 26 and 27, Bad Saulgau experienced an exciting spectacle of rabbit breeding! 13 breeders from the small animal breeding association Z 142 Bad Saulgau and guests from Z 04 Aulendorf presented over 100 magnificent rabbits in 16 different breeds and color strokes. The autumn -decorated exhibition hall in the Kronried became the setting for this animal championship, which began on Friday with a strict evaluation day.

The judges Siegfried and Steffi Trommer from Constance had the demanding task of assessing the animals according to a defined catalog of criteria. Factors such as weight, body shape, fur hair and maintenance state decidedly about the coveted points and thus about the placements. Club champion was the Mohr breeding community with its white New Zealanders, closely followed by Arno Arnegger, who not only shone as a breeder, but also acted as a breeding manager and exhibition manager.

The best breeders and their animals

The competition was hard! The ZG Rehm with their Burgundians and Thorsten and Daniela Geertz with white rams secured the other top positions. Arno Arnegger triumphed with his Hermelin Bla, while Patrick Müller had his nose with a Dutch S/W. The title of the guest master went to Markus Dirlewanger with a big silver black. Honorary prices were also awarded: Lothar Bank for Has rabbit, Philipp Ruther for Sachsengold and other breeders were honored for their outstanding animals.

The balance of the exhibition was consistently positive! Exhibition manager Arno Arnegger and the new chairman Thorsten Geertz were enthusiastic about the quality of the animals presented and the high number of visitors. Among the guests were Mayor Raphael Osmakowski-Miller and board members of neighboring breeding clubs, which were spoiled with a hearty battle plate and a delicious cake table. The next highlights for the small animal breeders have already been determined: The district show will take place in Altshausen on November 24th, followed by the state show on December 13th and 14th in Villingen-Schwenningen and the Federal Rammers show in January 2025 in Magdeburg!
