Scissoring one of these things does seem to take forever, LOL.<br /><br /> Jan, I may add more purebreds in later but for now I don't want to risk sacrificing size since I've found that the crosses outweigh the purebreds I've had by quite a bit so far (from several different breeders). I am sure hybrid vigor has something to do with that, but for now I will stay the course and see how it goes, then add in later as necess.Anonymomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09153069346354519868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5650539546207397393.post-63165199907893820882012-04-03T19:17:37.923-07:002012-04-03T19:17:37.923-07:00I second Dustin's point that you've got to...I second Dustin's point that you've got to use a blower with Giants. That kind of density demands it. You should probably also try to breed in more purebred Giants.Janhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13410219461952307174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5650539546207397393.post-46232943268502818732012-04-02T06:21:08.305-07:002012-04-02T06:21:08.305-07:00Your Giants look to be coming along very nice and ...Your Giants look to be coming along very nice and I loved your very informative post! You are right a blower is going to be a MUST have for showing this breed and keeping up with regular grooming. The furnishing is one thing I really need to buckle down on now that I am getting bigger rabbits with better wool. I tend to like more furnishing but like you mentioned it is not the standard that must adhear to. Looking forward to more posts about your Giants.Dustinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11352801249972001731noreply@blogger.com
