Good morning!☀️ Thank you for all of the interest in our big chonky bunnies 🐰 We have been receiving a lot of calls and messages😊 asking about price, availability, and colors available. Naturally, those are the three big questions anyone would have. And our page has been updated to provide those answers 😁

Please, in the interest of saving time, (mine and yours, as we all work) take a moment before contacting us with questions, and review the page for this updated info.

After you’ve read that information, then always feel free to contact us with additional questions. I am happy to chat on the phone, or respond to messages, that are unique to each family. Many people have questions about current pets in the household interacting with a new rabbit, housing your new bun, feed type and cost, when deposits are due, etc. 

I am more than happy to answer questions you may have, before, during, and after the adoption. All I’m trying to do is avoid repeating myself, multiple times daily, with info that is already provided on the page 😊🐰💕 Please and thank you.

More European Imports ...

On the left, Blue Buck "Asher" - a beast of a bun at only 6 weeks of age. Nice and chonky - just how we like 'em :D

On the right, Blue Doe "Anya", another chonk of a bun at only 6 weeks age.

All of these Imports are more than double the size of the original (American bred) Flemish G's we were formerly breeding at the same age. And people thought THEY were big! Lol

Another European Import from our first round of breeder buns.
Colors offered from this set will be Blue, Black, Steel, and
Light Grey (pictured below). This blue-eyed beauty is "Liesel" - a Doe.

We will be ordering more Imports throughout spring and summer for a full variety of colors.

For those interested ....

Some of our new European Imported Giant Breeders.
On the left is "Finley" the black buck. His parents weigh in at over 21 lbs each.

On the right is "Lilibet" one of our Doe's.
Her parents also weigh in at over 20 lbs each.

Even at this young age, if you know what you're looking for, (and you should if you're that interested in this breed) look at the ears. They're HUGE for this age - 7 and 4 weeks - respectively. You can see the heavy bone density (again, if you know what you're looking for) and those short little powerful legs, and "cabbage" heads. Big and round, short chonky snoot.

We've got more coming and will post as we choose buns. While we've paid/reserved the buns, we're just now choosing from each litter, as to precisely which of the buns we want. We wait a bit to see each color come through, with accuracy.

Good afternoon!

A little change in plans to announce. I couldn't stop brewing over having to increase the adoption price with our new European Imports. Not after you all have waited SO long, and with SO much kindness, patience and support. My husband and I have discussed this at length, over a homemade cherry pie, of which I consumed half. Ugh. Anyway, this saint of man agreed with me. Or, he just got tired of me ranting/whining and driving him crazy. lol

So, while yes, the European Imports are absolutely worth the $800 adoption fee, we'll "bite the bullet" so to speak, and let our accountant spread the plethora of new expenses out over a longer period of time. We can make it work.

Therefore, if you are ON OUR CURRENT WAITING LIST - you know who you are - and so do I (142 Adopters) your price will be $500 per rabbit. You'll still receive a complimentary bag of starter feed, your buns baby blankie, your choice of bunny toy, pedigree paperwork, and info packet on proper care/feeding etc.

Anyone, from this point on, that is added to the NEW WAITING LIST, will pay an adoption fee of $800 per rabbit.

As always, we do NOT accept any deposits until you tell me "THIS IS THE EXACT WABBIT I WANT" ... and that can happen at the 6-week mark. A deposit equal to half ($250) will be due at that time. The remainder isn't due until you have your wabbit in your hot little paws, ready to take him/her home with you.

Lastly ...

If you no longer wish to purchase a wabbit, NO PROBLEM. You don't have to do/say a thing. You're welcome to continue to follow the page, or not. Totally up to you

*PLEASE READ IN FULL PRIOR TO CONTACTING US WITH QUESTIONS. Thank you :)

Hi everyone! First, I want to thank all of you for your incredible patience, kindness, and lots of support. It's been a LONG journey getting our breeding back up and running after enduring the RHD2 Virus (Rabbits) and Long Covid (us humans!)

That being said, most of you know that we've been spending an enormous amount of time trying to secure authentic European Breeders as we move forward. I cannot even begin to tell you how much time I have invested in this, through phone calls and emails. After all of this time and effort .... I am THRILLED to say, WE FINALLY DID IT! I found someone with connections to breeders in various areas of Europe, where this giant rabbit breed originally came from.

The good news is, those still interested in adopting from us, will be getting a bun bred by AUTHENTIC PEDIGREED EUROPEAN Buck and Doe that we will have on-sight for you to meet. These buns have a denser bone structure, are larger in size compared to the American versions, and are just big chunky block-head gorgeous! They are SHOW QUALITY.

I do NOT have the buns in my possession at this time, though money has changed hands. They successfully made the trip to America and are in good health. However, they are too young to separate from momma. I will have our first round of buns in 8 weeks. And I will post pix at that time.

There is a downside, so to speak. Which I don't like.

Adoption fees have increased dramatically. Our 142 person waiting list may dwindle very quickly, as ... for one thing .... we will not be breeding until Oct/Nov., so that breeders will be age appropriate for such. That means buns wouldn't be available for adoption until Jan/Feb 2025. That was never the plan, but it is, what it is, at this point. (As if we all haven't waited long enough!) I still firmly believe that this was a good business decision and I'm veryyyyy excited to be working with top-quality European Giants. And I'm equally excited to provide our fellow rabbit enthusiasts with the best bun anywhere.

Original adoption fees were $350-$500 per bun adoption. It is now $800 per bun. Fees changed due to shipping buns costs being between $1,200 and $1,500 per bun, to fly them from Europe to America. This was handled by our contact that has connections in Europe. They actually traveled overseas and handled the entire arrangement, first-hand. And of course, the fact that we're acquiring such an incredibly high-quality bun from their country of origin.

My husband and I decided that we needed to "Go big or go home". And I agree. We've said from the start, we are not the breeder for everyone - and we're not trying to be. We are obsessed with preserving this special breed and we love what we do. We want to offer our gentle giant bunny-addicted customers the BEST there is to offer. You asked for bigger buns - well, here you go.

That being said, there is NO SHAME if these new babies are out of budget, given the new adoption fees. I totally understand and respect anyone that, either would prefer not to wait any longer for a bun. (I'm too impatient. I couldn't do it!) OR if the price is simply more than you want to spend.

So, that is our big news! I know many of you will be very disappointed due to yet another extended wait time. Hey, at least now we have factual breeding dates. Lol And others will be very unhappy with the new pricing. BUT there will be many of you that have waited all of this time, for precisely what we're now going to be offering. So please feel free to join us in our very exciting new adventure!

While I detest disappointing anyone, I stand by our decision to upgrade our bun breeding so substantially

Welcome!

Sawyer Creek Farm is owned and operated by a United States Marine Corps family in Middle Tennessee. I am the resident bunny addict, and my hubby and son, the Veterans. While I’m busy breeding cotton-tailed giants, my son breeds his beloved German Shepherds. It seems our family defintely has a deep affection for big animals with huge wonky ears! Lol

My focus in breeding is to ensure that our sweet buns are all big, healthy, cuddly, love-bugs, well-socialized, for a smooth transition into their forever homes. This is exceptionally important to me, as while I do breed for pet quality, I also do so for a cause that is close to my heart; providing Military Veterans in need with a wonderful companion, that will act as an Emotional Support Animal (ESA). PTSD is a traumatic and heartbreaking battle many of our Veterans are burdened with after serving their country. We have so much love and respect for these brave men and women. We want to help and support them in any way we can. Fortunately, we’ve got lots of help too. Our Marine MoM group (celebrating our 8th anniversary) always has volunteers willing to sponsor a bunny for any Veteran that will benefit from some big-earred, fluffy-tailed love. Our Flemish Giants are easily managed, quiet, gentle, and they make wonderful pets for many of our Heroes.

If you are searching for a bunny to add to your family, or you know someone in need of an Emotional Support Animal, (military or civilian), please feel free to contact me. I am always happy to answer any questions you may have, or extend an invitation to the farm to visit with our adorable buns!

Warm Regards,
