 This little lad off Step and Arrow, a holland lop born on April 22, 2021.
This soft-natured, very sweet boy needed to find his own home as his brother was starting to boss him around. A tiny boy who takes after his dad.

Mia Bella is a special case. She was sold as a non-breeding pet bunny. I think she has a genetic issue, or perhaps just a bit of a leaky gut. Gracie had three kits off Stream on April 9, 2021. Two girls and one boy were born in this litter. They were weaned just over three weeks of age since momma Gracie was beating them up. No other way to put it. She was not happy having these youngsters in her living space. I put them on hay and oatmeal with just a touch of pellets. It's not hard to manage three week old kits without their momma. They did fine until just over four weeks when little girl Mia Bella started to struggle. She was the only one struggling but it meant everyone got treated for Coccidiosis along with activiated charcoal even though it was not indicated. It made no difference in the life of Mia Bella, and her siblings continued to thrive. She was also wormed in case that was a causal factor.  I followed a variety of suggestions to bring her into complete health and over time learned that she needs a mostly dry diet in order to survive. So any greens she gets I let wilt over night and that seems to do the trick along with getting oatmeal, pellets, and hay. She has not handled anything with a high moisture content in it well.
I am hoping with time she will come to handle fresh greens well and hope that her new people will proceed very slowly as I don't want her to regress. She's a small little girl who over the past two weeks has put on "heft" (means she has a bit of weight to her appropriate to her size). Gracie had three kits off Stream on April 9, 2021.

It made no difference in the life of Mia Bella, and her siblings continued to thrive. The little buck has always been a little nose kisser and a friendly, curious youngster. He was the first out of the box, and was always into exploring the world around him.  This little man moved into a home with a young lady and her momma. Their previous bunny did not thrive in their home so they took home pellets and hay to help him transition well.
Step and Arrow produced this lovely little boy who found his new home this morning. This little lad and his three siblings won my heart ages ago and I'm so pleased he is going to a pet home. I'm keeping his sister Aria.  He's fun curious lad who was raised by a very quiet doe. Her kids tend to take after her quiet nature as you can see by his demeanor in this pic. :) I think his new person will be delighted by him, he's such a nice boy.
 He likes to think about life before he commits, but now he's got himself a new home.
An Elly and Moose boy from April 9, 2021. A nice chocolate boy.  Spice and Speck have joined two herd mates in their new home.  I hope they made it to their new home today riding in the back of a truck on a very hot day. I was surprised at how hot they got just making the trip to London. It made me quite concerned about their well-being on the way home.
An April 9th daughter to Elly and Moose, this young lady made her way into a London home today.  A sweet-natured girl with a determined streak, she'll need to be reminded she's not in charge of the world, but when she knows her people she likes to cuddle in close.
Born on March 25th to Autumn and Timer, Little Dude found his way into a home on Friday.  I'm not sure where his people come from but they were delighted and were looking forward to introducing him to their child.
Little Dude is a quiet boy and should mature to be a lot like his dad. Lots of curiousity and energy while maintaining a sweet personality. Little Miss Fire is going to her new home today. Her new person Mandy is currently held up in traffic, but that won't stop Fire from her new adventures. Fire is a daughter from Elly and Moose, born April 9. She's a quiet minded lass who likes to poke her nose into everything. She's a good mix between her mom and dad's personalities. I hope her new owner delights in her antics.  YOu won't believe it if I told you. A feller came by the other day wanting some meat rabbits. I had this thought in my head he'd want 3-5 of my youngsters. Raise them up, have babies, eat the offspring. Provide well for himself and his kin. INSTEAD.... I bought all 11 of Cherry's littles!  Five boys, six girls. Nice to know they have a place to be.  They'll be leaving next week after he finishes building cages for them all. He said it shouldn't take long.

AuthorI have been breeding rabbits for a quite a few years. I thoroughly enjoy them as animals and think they make great pets. I also like to take some of them to rabbit shows to see how they measure up to the standards. 
For the BEST rabbit forum I've ever found. Go to Rabbittalk.com. Good for the pet rabbit owner as well as the breeder for meat or show.
