Skeeter is one special little rabbit. He was the sole survivor from his litter, so I have been really protective of him. Skeeter has been so much fun to work with. I have been teaching him to lie on his back and let me check his teeth, feet, legs and nails from the time he opened his eyes.

   On September 7th, we took Skeeter to a Muskogee County 4-H show, just to get him some table time before the Tulsa State Fair. I just wanted him to have a good time seeing all the other rabbits and people. When our class was called, he was the only Junior, so we had to show with the Senior bucks. Was I surprised when my little Skeeter won the class. He also won Best of Breed!

   My grandma urged me to take Skeeter into the Showmanship class. Since I had been working with him and he seemed to be having a good time, we went in. Imagine my surprise when we were the Junior Division Showmanship Champions!

   The judge told me that Skeeter was a very promising young buck and I had done a good job with him. I'm looking forward to the fair, as I think he will do well.
