Show A Best In Show Judging at Merced




Normally all Best In Show judgings are done at the end of the show, or during a break.  At this show, due to heat or some unknown reason, the events were out of the regular order.  While our rabbits were on the show B and NCAG specialty table, the show B Best In Show was also going on.   




As usual, the Angoras are in their own coop at the back table.




Judge Chris Zemny awards the Best In Show to Rene Moore's Mini Rex.




Reserve In Show is Desi's Holland Lop.

After judging was over, we learned that the Angoras at the back table was not examined or considered.  It's not a good situation when there are three places required us to be present, but done is done, nothing else can be done.
