Still looking!

04/08/2024

Poor Cuddles is mighty sad no one has expressed interest in adopting him! He's a sweet boy who lives up to his name, and gives no fight or fuss when being held. He would make a phenomenal companion for someone. He's only a little over a year old (right at it) so plenty of life to share with you!

Him and two bonded females are available shared in another post.

Appa and Finn are two gorgeous bonded 1.5 (roughly) year old Holland Lop females seeking a new forever home where they can be spoiled rotten! It was believed (as they were told by the petshop they adopted them from after being returned by the first owners) by their previous (second) owner that they were originally a spayed and neutered pair, but both are indeed girls! So with that being said, I cannot guarantee either are actually spayed. Being just the two of them, they're fine if not. Do not bother trying to acquire them for breeding, these are pet quality rabbits.

They are looking for a new home due to no fault of their own, or the previous owner. Do you think you might be a right fit? Finn is the black vienna marked girl, and Appa is the chestnut (agouti/wild colored) girl. Both are characters to say the least. Appa is more reserved and shy, but sweet nonetheless. She is VERY very food motivated.

Both tolerate being held, but it is NOT their favorite thing by any means. They're a prey animal at the end of the day, not teddy bears. But both have lots of love to give and do not seem to mind sitting in your lap especially for foooood!

I will include transition feed with them, their litter box, and anything else of their supplies I have remaining from their previous home.

These girls are not free, but not expensive either. There is a fair rehoming fee. I am located in Grays Creek/Hope Mills, so please see how far that is from you before inquiring.

***DORIO HAS FOUND HIS FOREVER HOME***

I have some rabbits seeking forever PET homes. None are breeding quality and should go to pet only homes. The one this post will focus on is Dorio. He will be ready for his new home after this weekend (July 20th-21st).

Dorio was recently surrendered due to no fault of his own or the family's. He is a sweet 4-6 month old mixed breed buck, we unfortunately don't know much more. He has gorgeous sky blue eyes, and is a super minimally marked magpie colored rabbit. He has one black speck behind his right ear, and one cute big bold butt stripe.

If I had the space, he'd be a hard one to not keep for myself. He reminds me dearly of my 3rd rabbit ever. He is inquisitive, sweet, and well mannered. He tolerates being petted and being held quite well.

He is still intact. I do not recommend trying to bond him to other rabbits unless you're willing to have him neutered. He deserves the absolute best.

If you're interested in adopting Dorio, please reach out via private message. Photos with my hand are just to give a size comparison. Ignore the Blue Kote on my hand. A bag of transition feed will be included.

I am located in Hope Mills/Grays Creek, NC.

I have 1 male rabbit seeking a new home. He is an intact young adult right at a year old. Best suited as a pet. He has your typical sweet, laid back, yet inquisitive Dutch temperament. Does wonderfully being held, and also for nail trims.

He would make a phenomenal companion for a patient older kid.

Located in Hope Mills. Feel free to PM me for more information. Transition feed will be included as well as nail trims for the duration of his life if need be.

Most of my prices on grooming have changed, after weeks of consideration and thought. The only price that will remain the same is nail trims, for future reference!

After Sunday, grooming prices will be as follows...

• Nail trims: 10 per critter (discounts on more than 3)
• Scent gland clean up (for rabbits): 5
• Brush outs/deshedding: 15
• Dematting/potential trim ups of standard rabbits: 20
• Teeth trims: 30
• Angora care (shave downs typically-- more time consuming): 30

If you have gotten a rabbit from me in the past, I have no interest in charging you for basic nail trims, but donations are always welcome 😂

A Note About Tattoos.... and why they are important.

Today someone sent me this post. If you're not from Wisconsin, Manitowoc is over 180 miles from Rud Ridge.

The clamp tattoo and unmistakable RR had me squinting at the picture. The following was hard to make out a bit, but I finally figured out it was RROB1 and one more character I couldn't read.

Pretty unmistakable that it was probably a rabbit that came from Rud Ridge.

So I looked in my records, did a little digging, and sure enough it was a rabbit I took with me last year to console Diesel's former owner when they gave Diesel to us since they couldn't keep him.

Come to find out, this rabbit had escaped about a month ago... and by some miracle she survived all that time.

I tell this story to say this: there is a reason tattoos are an absolute requirement, and this is one. Because the unmistakability of our tattoos in sequence and style got word back to me that this bun needed help to find her human. And though she was sent off as "just a pet" of course I was going to help.

So, if you're more on the pet side of the spectrum here, this is a story that shows we don't tattoo them just to be cruel, or just for show, or because of tradition.

If you haven't seen our blog post about tattooing, you can find it here:

Couple good examples of how loin carriage is different than spine shape and effects the overall topline look. And also why you should take a lot of pictures. The Harli has a really striking topline at 8 weeks old. Now she’s grown a whole lot of loin but she carries it very evenly from the start of the spine(right after the shoulders) to about the start of the hip and then starts to fall of quickly. The whole loin needs to move back so that the bulk of the loin is over the center of the hip.
The tri essentially stayed the same. Got a little longer in the midsection but her loin carriage is still predominantly starting mid back. The roundness you see here is because her spine shape is more round which you can see in the baby pictures.
Because the Harli actually does have a nice spine shape, I’ll try and breed her to a buck with better loin carriage. Probably my NZ 🙄
The tri will get bred sorta the same but more focus on spine shape with her and loin depth and fullness.

Edit: Our local Pet Supermarket is charging 300 for "Micro rabbits," so no, I genuinely don't feel horrible about my pricing, which is 100 for pet quality. I KNOW for a fact and from experience, Pet Supermarket themselves are known to also rehome underage rabbits. I've seen them have rabbits not fully weaned in the past that were dropping like flies in the display case, and when brought up, they blew it off.

This doesn't necessarily appear to be Pet Supermarket in the photo (could be wrong), but last I checked 2 years ago they were charging around 90. So this doesn't surprise me.

Mine are cheaper than this for pets, I can tell you their exact birthdates, breed, gender, and they're handled one on one daily. Also, I include transition feed for smoother transitions to new homes (ALL breeders should be doing such), which pet stores do NOT offer. So when you purchase there, it's a hard switch for the rabbit and more likely to throw it in to GI stasis/digestive upset which can often times be fatal for a younger animal and inexperienced owner.

I swear, they're always the cutest at these ages 😭🥹

Socializing 10 4-5 week old Holland Lops tonight/this morning. Brought them inside for some extra lovins, exposure, and grooming of baby coats, which is always fun. 🤣 Peeked at genders. I know I definitely have a few of each, but since most of these were out of test breedings, I will not make final calls on genders until a few more weeks from now. Seem to be rather buck heavy. (The black at the beginning and end are the same baby).

Any I have that will be available, will be ready once they reach 10 weeks of age this go round, since I'm planning to move in a different direction and most of the parents pairings were test breedings.

Had a blast at Pendleton, SC show this past weekend. Good friends, even greater memories, and a last minute hiking adventure to Waldrop Stone Falls made it all worth while. A very vibrant Northern Cricket Frog, amongst many other cool finds were found. Thank you to Gooden Fluffy Hollands NC Fayetteville Rabbitry Plus Gooden Champagnes for inviting me along! 🥰
Looking forward to Smithfield next month, then maybe VA after that. Time will tell!

PSA... if you've purchased a rabbit from me and it doesn't have a pedigree with it, or it wasn't discussed further, then that rabbit was sold as PET quality.
There's normally a good, justified reason as to why it was sold as pet quality, also. People going around this and choosing to breed pet quality animals is EXACTLY why many choose to cull anything that isn't show or brood worthy, because you have so many dishonest people out there. It ruins breeds. Please don't do that. 🙃

A good read for other show breeders

It's unfortunately time this is shared again

Please consider scheduling with me, if you're uncomfortable grooming your pet as it might need! Or consider contacting a local groomer or vet confident enough to handle rabbits. You'd be surprised how many are not willing to work with them simply due to lack of experience in that area. It's really no more difficult than a cat or dog's nails once you get the hang of handling them!
