Recently I started a project. I wanted to create evaluation and rating sheets based on the 2016-2020 Standard of Perfection to help to help my kids who are just starting out with rabbits and I remember what to look for as we evaluate bucks and does for breeding pairs and for evaluating the future litters they will have.
Already I have created a New Zealand and a Mini Rex evaluation and rating sheet to help me with the process of understanding and evaluating my rabbits when it comes to deciding which rabbits I should be breeding to which and which kits and juniors are showing the best development and body type to keep for the show team and as future breeders. And since I found them so helpful I decided that a rating sheet for my daughter to use with her English Spots would be next on the to do list.
So, I spent a couple of afternoons combing through and pouring over the 2016-2020 Standard of Perfection and now I finally have it put together and ready to share with all of you.
Here is a sample of the first part of the markings section. This is a 5 page printed form that covers all the general items you look for specific to English Spots as well as each specific requirements for the different color varieties. It is also editable so that you can choose to print only the color variety you breed and show by deleting the others before you print if you wish.
Since I am hoping this will be a great tool, I am making it available to you as well. This is a free printable resource. Please feel free the make changes to it to suit your needs and use as many copies as you like. I only ask that you direct people to my blog to download their own copy and do not host the file anywhere on the internet without written permission from me. Thank you. You can check it out and download it for free from google drive here: English Spot Evaluation & Rating Sheet Download.
As always, I would love to hear from you. If you have comments or suggestions about how to make this form better send them my way. Or if you have a story about how this form has helped you I would love to hear about it. If you love the rating sheet and want to say thanks we are always accepting donations to help feed the rabbits.
