Floppy ears + fluffy manes. Is there anything else to say?

I am very excited and proud to introduce our first Lionhead + Holland Lop litter from a partnership we have been working on for the past year with the Smith family. They have three kids in the family who have been doing the hard work of socializing these wild animals. 😂 And it has turned out like a dream. All of the babies we have gotten them have been very relaxed and used to small human energy. So far we have been working on Netherland Dwarfs together, but this time we tried something new!

If this goes well, we will definitely be collaborating again in the future. We found them two show lops at the last show we attended in Greensboro, so we are excited to see what we can create together. I have always wanted to find a way to have lops in our program!! But as we are a very small rabbitry, it wasn’t a possibility to do it in house. Partnership between rabbitries is important and I am so grateful to be working with a family who shares our love for rabbits and the values we breed by.

Love and peace rabbit fam. 🤍

Pickle, our latest rescue bun, showing off his handsome face. This stud is a Mini Lop, which is actually NOT the smallest lop breed, but is very often mistaken as that. Mini lops are 5.5-6.5 lbs, while Holland Lops come in at the smallest floppy eared bunny model at around 2-4 lbs. I think what I’m trying to say is that Pickle is a big luscious boy of about 4 years old. He’s used to free roaming and doing heavy lifts at the gym. He is also neutered so he could be looking for a friend to bond to! 🤩

Share our rescue buns to help them find their people!
You’re the best, bunny fam.

Hey bunny fam! We have an incoming litter of adorable lionheads to our rescue program. They about 5 weeks old and are coming to be health checked and sexed on Friday. I see some harlequin shading on the orange ones and lots of white spots on heads and faces! So unique.

There are eight total but, at most we’ll be listing 6 of them (if they are healthy) because we already have a waitlist for 2 females. If you’re interested, pop over to the website and fill out an application for adoption. They will ready to go home in about 3 weeks!

If you’re not ready to adopt, but need some cuddly bunny love, come and meet them in person at an event over the next few weeks 🤩

Introducing Rowan’s and Gracie’s litters. They are 2 weeks old and came out for their first *very calm and serene* cuddle event this morning. Thank you to our guests for sharing their gentle love! 🤍

Now I’m going to ramble on about the rabbit mamas because these ladies are so special to us.

This is Rowan’s fourth litter and it’s Gracie’s very first! They each have two. Gracie has been a wonderful first time mom. Rowan is a pro, and for those of you who haven’t met her yet, she is one of the most chill female rabbits EVER. Would you all be interested in seeing footage of the moms with the babies?

We also have two more litters in the nest with Cloud and Kimchi who you will be seeing soon. They are just a week younger. They each have two kits right now.

Also please take not that feeding baby bunnies dried herbs is safe, but fresh foods can be hard on their tums. This little one is eating our immune and gut blend in the shots. We usually make them a mix of alfalfa, Timothy, and immune and gut forage mix (available in our shop) from about 2 weeks old on. At this age they are starting to nibble, but not eating pellet food yet, and still getting most of their nutrients from mom’s milk.

Love and peace bunny fam 🤍

lesson today with Avery, one of our mixed breed . Cage aggression does NOT mean a rabbit hates you, or people in general. Being aggressive while in their cage is an instinctual response to someone else coming into their “burrow.” In nature, female rabbits are fiercely protective of their burrow space and use this small underground chamber to build their nest, take quiet naps, or be alone with their thoughts. Are they meditating on how to bring about peace on earth? Probably.

The good news is that cage aggression can be worked with. While not for the faint of heart, or thin skinned 😬, I believe there’s a perfect person out there for the lovely Avery! Which is why our team has worked on understanding each rabbit’s unique language and social needs, so we can teach it to YOU.

Here’s my top tips for working with a cage aggressive rabbit:

1. Work WITH them, not against. Give them a burrow that you do not enter. This can be a box with a hole in the side, a dog crate with a rug or towel over it, a wooden hutch, somewhere small and dark and private. If they are in there, they are not to be disturbed. You will never put your hands in this space or lift them up while in here.
2. Give them a large space to live in. Use a 3-4ft pen to define their home base, it’s great if it has a door so they can free range sometimes. Their “burrow” will live somewhere inside this space, near the back, away from the door.
3. Make sure they have enough room to do zoomies and binkies daily. This is how a rabbit resets their nervous system. A rabbit without space to exercise is a high strung, stressed out, or depressed rabbit, which exacerbates cage aggression. They need to move!
4. If aggression around the food bowl or during feeding time is a concern, forage feed them by sprinkling pellets and greens across the ground, have multiple hay areas, and carefully feed them by hand while they are outside of the pen.
5. Assume that trust will build slowly and stayed tuned for more tips on getting a new rabbit friend comfortable with you.

Salt and Lilac attended the ArtsCenter and Breadbox Farm event last weekend—their first off-site adventure—and had the time of their lives. Lilac found the ground super appealing, so she spent most of the day digging and playing in the sandy dirt 😁. Salt, on the other hand, just wanted to groom Lilac and shower her with all the love. This pair is truly adorable

The bunnies have always loved snuggling up in the hay baskets, and little Oriana here has certainly learned the ropes from her mom, Pooh Bear. Now that her siblings have been adopted and she’s the only one left in the litter, Oriana gets to enjoy her peaceful, solo nap time in the hay basket without any distractions—just pure cozy bliss. 🤗❄️

Noor gave birth to these three beautiful babies about two weeks ago, and it’s been a true gift watching them grow more curious about the world beyond their nest with each passing day 😊
