Camellia Wins Open Best In Show at Hanford

Camellia is a pretty English Angora white doe who is the littermate sister to Raelynne.   

Camellia is very pretty, wins over most other white English Angora but has had a hard time competing with her sister Raelynne.  

Camellia is patient, keeping herself pretty and waiting for her chance to shine.

Camellia's chance is coming at the Central Valley RBA show.   She wins over her sister Raelynne and goes on to win Best In Show under judge Chris Zemny.   A great day for Camellia.   Raelynne and Camellia are the two only babies in the litter from Augustina who is also a multi-Best In Show winner.  The two sisters have cumulated 8 Best In Show and 3 Reserve In Show within a 4-month period of time, and they are still going strong.
