Christi is a youth breeder and exhibitor of Holland Lop Rabbits. It all began with Mini Rex rabbits in 2001, and progressed with the purchase of a Holland Lop rabbit in 2002. She exhibited both Mini Rex and Holland Lops until she sold her last Mini Rex rabbit on 10/16/04.
Schmidt's Phebe, Sheila, was purchased on 4/6/02, as a Junior. Sheila became a Grand Champion on 11/2/02, and was then retired from "show business". Christi didn't get a Holland Lop Buck until 2/8/03, when she was given HH Rich.
The Tortoise Shell Project began on 4/23/03, with one Buck and one Doe, Rich and Sheila. Pet quality rabbits were produced both times they were bred together, so Rich had to go. Rich was replaced with HH Tank on 10/25/03.
The first breeding of Sheila & Tank produced two Bucks, Tank, Jr. & Corky. Tank Jr., was sold when he was four months old with 2 Jr. Legs. Corky had wry neck as a baby, made a full recovery, and was given away when he was four months old. Corky won Best of Breed at his 2005 County Fair.
The Smoke Pearl Project began on 6/6/04, with three Bucks and three Does. The project was given to Christi by Meta Roddy and is progressing nicely.
In August, 2004, Christi produced a Broken Smoke Pearl Jr. Doe. Hopp Inn Haze pulled her teeth on her cage and was sold to a 4-H girl when she was three months old. Haze turned out to be quite a show bunny. She has won several Legs, and one Best in Show.
The Otter Project began on 4/12/04, and was included in the Tortoise Shell Project until it was separated on 1/04/06. Christi has decided to sell her Otter Project so she can have more space for her Smoke Pearl and Tortoise Shell projects.
The Chinchilla Project began on 4/3/05, with two Bucks and three Does. The project was given to Christi by Valarie Roddy. Christi has decided to sell her Chinchilla Project so she can have more space for her Smoke Pearl and Tortoise Shell projects.
