Herd Reduction

For whatever reason we currently can not upload our photos but will continue trying to get them posted today.  


We've been ever so slowly going through some bunnies as we want to reduce our herd and focus on our two color programs which are black torts and black & orange tri colors. We're parting with animals that are not either of those colors and are parting with some others too that we just are not using. This is a great opportunity that doesn't come up often to get some show and breeding stock for us. 

We are located close to Grande Prairie AB however we do have transport heading from Grande Prairie to Calgary on May 31, that we can send bunnies for folks to meet along highway 43 or highway 2 between Edmonton and Calgary. Transport is available for $10/rabbit and all rabbits must be paid for in full before leaving here. We will not hold animals at this point, so the first to pay for an animal is the new owner. 

Please keep in mind that we are in the middle of calving right now so things are super busy here, it may take some time for me to reply. 

I'll list show/breeding stock first then some of the pet stock that we have available. All photos have been taken today except Marleys which were taken about a month ago. 

Please e-mail starlitrabbitry @ hotmail.com for inquires, I do not check messages here. 


*SOLD* Grand Champion, Registered Clear Sky's Marley. Black tort buck DOB July 12 2017 We brought this guy up from the states and just don't use him anymore since there's so many other grand champion tort bucks around here out of him. Time for him to go help out someone else's herd. Shown just enough to grand him. $250




* SOLD * SLR's Honeybee torted black/orange harlequin DOB March 2 2017 Another gal who should have a few litters in her. Good type on her, torted in color and could have some more black pattern. Wonderful mom who just weaned a litter this week of four in the box, all from different moms. Great foster mom. Is on the shy and skittish side. $100

* SOLD * SLR's F165 - Minimally marked black and orange tri buck DOB Feb 13/21. We held this guy back for awhile to grow him out but are hanging onto two other tri bucks instead. The hair on this guys face is obviously molting at this point. $100

* SOLD * SLR's F135 Torted black/orange harlequin buck DOB April 20 2020 If you are looking at improving your type in a tri program, then this is not the buck for you. He has a decent shoulder and topline but really falls off and is weak in that hindquarter. Lower head mount but decent HEC. Very busy boy and does like to spray. He has a good distribution of black/orange though and I've found this to be quite genetic so would help get some more black on your tris if they are lightly marked. $100 

SLR's F112 Torted lightly marked black and orange harlequin DOB Aug 1/19 Show(if the color was showable)  I really don't mind if this dude stays here as he's developing so nicely. Love this buck and he's probably one of the nicest harlequin based bucks we've let go of. He's got good width to balance and has a smooth body. He could use more depth and fullness in the loin area and needs more width to his crown to completely lop those ears. Would be an asset type wise to a tri program. Is torted and is a aaB-C-D-eje $150 for brood
