Category: Shows and Markets

Face eating results

I made the mistake of mentioning an upcoming show while in the dutch rabbit pen. One of them decided to sculpt both of his adjoining neighbor’s faces overnight!

Of course I had fully intended to enter those two. Luckily I had nit finished my entry yet! So if you’re going to a show, don’t tell the rabbits!

I’ve seen people on Facebook poat pictures like this and stert frantically asking what disease their rabbit has. If the fur is missing between the eyes and it’s clean with no dandruff or redness, it’s either a cagemate or a neighbor.

I have 2 does right now (and now this buck) that have to be in cages that either have solid dividers or are next to a non show contestant because they like to lick other rabbits. Nothing wrong with their diet, it’s just fun!

Things to bring to a farmer’s market (as a vendor)

This is a quick list style post of everything I took as a vendor to a local farmer’s market. Hopefully it helps someone not forget something! At this particular one I brought ducks, rabbits, bonsai, and pottery. In no particular order, here’s the packing list:

  • Tent
  • Tent Weights
  • Table(s)
  • Tarp – for bad weather
  • Tarp-lining the car against poo
  • Apron
  • Signs
  • Cell Phone
  • Change
  • Check / set up square account for taking cards
  • Boxes (to send sold animals home with)
  • Bag of bonsai soil (in case of spills)
  • Old keyboard stand for under rabbit carrier
  • Water bowls
  • Gallon of water
  • Table covers
  • Drinks/snacks for me (needed more drinks)
  • Hat
  • Sunglesses
  • Towels to cover cages from heat
  • Ducks in cages
  • Rabbits in Carrier
  • Bonsai in crate
  • Other plants in plastic planting flat
  • Pottery (pre priced) in a plastic tote
  • Paper towels
  • Rubbing alcohol (for scratches)
  • Baby wipes
  • Permanent marker
  • Blank tags (last minute signs)
  • Rabbit nail clippers
  • Bucket (to put purse and supplies in)
  • Purse
  • Binder clips (to hold signs down)
  • Battery operated fan (mine was a neck fan)

I think that’s it! And it all fit in the car 🙂
