Available Seniors

 First off, I apologize for the photos, my camera took a tumble and on occasion doesn't want to work. These are off my phone so I can grab some more/videos if interested. Please keep in mind that we are hitting our busiest time of year here as we approach calving season so it may take a day or two for me to respond to an e-mail. 

These are the seniors that we're parting with on this round of reductions, there may be more to come but it'll be a few weeks. If you are interested in any of these guys then please send me an e-mail at starlitrabbitry @ hotmail.com (remove spaces). Rabbits will only be held for longer then 7 days if they are fully paid for. Transport is the responsibility of the buyer from Grande Prairie AB (This is already an hours drive for us to get to the city from the ranch). 


* SOLD * SLR's F82 Broken Black doe DOB September 25 2018 Decent brood doe, wonderful momma and very sweet, calm, laid back and friendly personality. One of the kids favorite bunnies in the barn. She is from the tri program but does not carry the tri gene so could go into any program. Just off a litter. $80 brood or $40 pet




* SOLD * SLR's Blake Black doe DOB August 5 2017 If we weren't parting with all our blacks, this gal wouldn't be going anywhere. She's an older doe and doesn't look like much but she clicks so well with the bucks here and always out produces herself. She is a tri carrier so should go into a tri program as she will only ever produce full extension animals(blacks/black otters) or tris/harlis depending on what she's paired with. If paired with a tort she genetically can not produce a tort but it will always be a harlequin/tri however probably lightly marked. She should have a few more litters in her but if she stays here, she can have a retirement home. Sweet doe who's easy to get along with and one of the best mommas, another of the kids favorites. $100 brood, $40 pet. 



* SOLD * SLR's F140 Torted Black/orange tri doe DOB June 9 2020 I didn't grab some photos of this girl but hopefully can tomorrow. She's just off a litter and sure out produced herself. Is torted and lightly marked. Good mom, friendly, curious outgoing doe. $90 brood or $40 pet

A spring update on kits

 If you’ve been patiently waiting for a bunny from us then you might finally be in luck! We will have some available once they are weaned from their moms at 8 weeks. The first ones will be 8 weeks on March 17th. These little guys will be available a few days after they are weaned(to make sure that they are transitioning well and to help reduce stress) as they are colors from programs that don’t fit into what we have here. These ones are all out of the tri line and are either torts or blacks that I know of at this point. They are available regardless of type so there’s potential for show quality animals however when they are so young, it’s impossible for me to say what quality they will be when mature. So if you’re looking for a show animal, it’s a educated gamble at this point. Bucks and does will both be available and there maybe some normals(animals with two normal genes so will grow to that 4-5 pound range, which is heavier then the standard calls for) plus the crown development will be a guess at this age(some crowns may remain tight causing the ears to be erect and some will have fully lopped ears). 


We will be requiring a 50% non-refundable deposit on these guys once they are weaned and posted for sale, to reserve which bunny you would like. Pet's are priced at $60 with no pedigree. Show and breeding stock go up from there. You are free to inquire before that point however we will not guarantee an animal or accept a deposit until they are weaned and doing well. I expect to have photos and information posted around March 17th and later for those litter weaned later. 


We are located North west of Grande Prairie AB and any transport will be the responsibility of the buyer to arrange and make payment for


Here's what's in the box for litters(not all of these will be available) 


DOB Jan 20/21 Grand Champion SLR's Sundance Kidd(tort) x SLR's F140(torted tri doe) had 5, 2 tort bucks, 1 torted harlequin, 1 torted tri buck and what I think is a minimally marked torted tri doe. 


DOB Jan 22/21 Grand Champion SLR's Sundance Kidd x SLR's F82(broken black) has 4, 2 tort does, 1 black buck and one broken black doe(may be holding her back to replace her mom). 


DOB Jan 22/21 Grand Champion SLR's Sundance Kidd x SLR's F103(Chestnut) has 3, 2 torts, 1 buck and 1 doe and one black doe. 


DOB Jan 25/21 Grand Champion SLR's Sundance Kidd x SLR's F100(torted tri doe) has one torted black/orange tri doe(she'll be held back for now). 


DOB Feb 3/21 Grand Champion SLR's Sundance Kidd x SLR's F94(tort doe) has two tort bucks who will be grown out for a bit here before possibly being available.

DOB Feb 13/21 Grand Champion LLL James(broken black)  x SLR's F105(black/orange harlequin) has 3, 1 torted black/orange harlequin buck, 1 clean orange doe and 1 clean black/orange tri buck- This whole litter will be held back for awhile. 


DOB March 3/21 Grand Champion LLL James x SLR's F107(black/orange harlequin) has 1 harlequinized chesnut. 


DOB March 3/21 Grand Champion LLL James x SLR's Honeybee(torted black/orange harlequin) has 1 black.

DOB March 5/21 Grand Champion LLL James x SLR's F110(torted black/orange harlequin) has 1 broken black. 



Just about all the torts and blacks will be available and the ones that are specified as being held back for now, will be grown out here until a later date and may or may not be available depending on type development then. 


We are also planning a herd reduction hopefully before we start calving so will have some brood stock available mostly tri/harlequin animals. If you are interested then send me an e-mail at starlitrabbitry @ hotmail.com (remove spaces). We are approaching our busy time of year at calving so please be patient on the reply, if I haven't replied to you within a couple business days then please send me another e-mail. Please e-mail me instead of leaving a comment on this post - I don't check them and don't get notifications of comments to know they are there.
