Little Rascals 4-H Rabbit and Cavy February Meeting Club News

Cheyenne and Sienna brought their two rabbits to the meeting.  Members learned about the American Rabbit Breeders Association (ARBA) Standard of Perfection. They did an activity of Breed Identification for rabbits and cavies using picture cards. Another activity was using the Standard of Perfection, and the Breed ID cards to identify what breed of rabbits Cheyenne and Sienna have. The members worked together and determined that one rabbit was a mixed breed and the other was a Polish. The members collected food donations for the Jenkintown Food Pantry.
