Put out a call on the silver fox list (there must be one) or through the breed website. Hutchinson, MN is hosting the silver fox nationals this weekend. Or just show up at the show with a cage and some money

Siver Fox are considered a critically endangered breed by the American Livestock Breeds Conservancy. You can find a couple breeders in the MN/WI area on their breeder's directory at http://albc-usa.org/breeddir/results.php You many need to start a new search...

There is a Yahoo Group for the National Silver Fox Rabbit Club (SilverFoxRabbitClub_NSFRC). The NSFRC also has a Facebook Page. If you didn't make it over to Silver Fox Nationals. The current COD holder for blue and chocolate Silver Fox (Meara Collins) lives in Minnesota and they have a big herd so should be able to set you up.

Unfortunately SilverFoxNews is moderated by someone who is not often online, but who keeps tight control on membership and posting. Try SilverFoxRabbits and WestCoastSilverFoxes. They are much more open Yahoo Groups.
