Not all NDs are nasty, but many of them are. I've met a few sweet NDs before.

Yea my other two ND are total cuddle bugs! It just depends on the animal

What is this leg thing? Like he wins champion he gets a leg? The term is strange. Never heard anything like it before.

I don't show rabbits, just poultry - but I've never picked up the term from the rabbit showers either. Is it a regional thing?

A leg is what a rabbit receives when they get Best Of Breed, Best of Variety, or Best Opposite Sex at an ARBA sanctioned show (there must be a certain number of exhibitors and rabbits entered in that breed though). If a rabbit gets three legs, they become a grand champion. ARBA shows are found all over AMERICA. (ARBA= American Rabbit Breeders Association) Aoxa, you are from Canada, so it would make sense that you wouldn't see these. There is probably a rabbit breeding association for your country.

A rabbit wins a leg when he wins in a class of at least 5 rabbits owned by at least 3 people at an ARBA sanctioned show. If I enter, say, a Broken Junior Holland Lop Buck in a show, and at least two other people have entered enough rabbits that there are a total of 5 Broken Junior Bucks, then whichever rabbit wins that class is awarded a grand champion leg. If that same buck wins Best of Variety, then the first win doesn't count. If, say, there were only 3 bucks in the Broken Senior Bucks class, and the Senior is picked as Best Opposite Sex of Variety (with a doe winning Best of Variety) then the total number of both buck classes (5 juniors, 3 seniors) are enough to award that buck a leg for that win (yes, it can get extremely complicated).

If a rabbit is owned by an ARBA member, has a complete 3 generation pedigree, and has been registered, when it wins a third grand champion leg, it becomes a grand champion. Not all legs are something to brag about, but when a rabbit wins big (BOB at Nationals, for example) that will often be noted on the pedigree.

I'm not even sure a pedigree is needed to show in Canada. Our entry forms included rabbits and thing like that was requested. We all do things so much differently!

Thanks for explaining it to me. So 9 legs sounds like a real accomplishment!
