The American Rabbit Breeders Association (ARBA) encourages the showing of pure breed and pedigreed rabbits, but rabbits do not have to be pure breed or pedigreed to be shown. A casual show exhibitor can have as much fun in a rabbit show as a serious competitor. Each breed has a different point distribution on different parts of the rabbit: (a) general type, which includes body, head, ears, eyes, feet/legs, and tail; (b) fur/wool, which includes the texture, length and density; (c) color/marking and (d) condition.
