New Arrivals!

Our does have finally kindled and here are the results! Please note that we are sold out and will be until these guys are available early-mid October.


SLR's AnnaPrimRose was bred to SLR's Aiden and had 4 kits - 2 black orange harlequins, 1 buck and 1 doe & two tort does(1 is a peanut). She is also a foster mom to one from Macey.

SLR's Olivia was bred to Campo's Fire N' Ice and had 6 kits - 1 black orange tri buck, 1 black orange harli doe, 1 orange doe, 1 chestnut buck and 2 broken chestnut does one of which was DOA.

SLR's Saffir was bred to SLR's Aiden and had 2 kits - both black orange tris and both were DOA

SLR's Macey was bred to SLR's Aiden and had 3 kits - 1 tort doe that is fostered to Anna and 2 DOA blacks

Cutie Patootie T'fer Tigger was bred to SLR's DJ and had 4 kits - 1 black orange harli, 1 broken orange and 2 oranges all of which are peanuts.

Whoever said breeding rabbits is easy hasn't had breedings like these! As Hollands are a dwarf breed they have one normal gene and one dwarf gene which makes them little. When you breed two of these kind of Hollands together you end up with 25% normal(big Hollands) 50% dwarf Hollands and 25% peanuts(they got a dwarf gene from each parent which is a fatal combination). In all my years of raising rabbits I have never had a litter that was ALL peanuts like Tiggers is! The good news is that we have 9 fat happy healthy babies to grow up!
We'll update this as they grow and become available to their new homes.
