What is a junior rabbit?

A junior rabbit typically refers to a young rabbit that is still in its early stages of development, usually under six months of age. In rabbit breeding and shows, "junior" is a classification used to denote rabbits that have not yet reached maturity and may still be in the process of growing and developing their physical traits. This classification helps breeders and judges assess the quality of rabbits at different life stages. Junior rabbits are often evaluated for conformation, health, and temperament.
