Downsizing

1/29/2017

Comments

 
Hey guys! 

I wanted to make this post to talk about something, mostly about downsizing, and why. 
Anyways, that's right - I will be downsizing my herd of Hollands. 

Why? 
Well, I'm finding taking care of my rabbits more of a chore then a joy anymore, and I'm not able to spend near as much time as I want with each rabbit. I think that's because I have too many rabbits. It's also probably related to this freezing weather, I mean, who can enjoy taking care of 30 rabbits in freezing weather?!
Also, if I downsize I have less to work with but I can keep more nicer babies, as I am getting some very nice babies I have to sell because I have no space! 
I also want to get back into horses, as some of you may know, I had a fall a couple years ago and broke my arm. I haven't been the same confidence wise with horses since. I still rode my mare, Taffy, but she got old and passed away December 1st. It took me a while to feel okay with getting another horse, but now I'm casually looking - I want something that's calm and safe. I'm looking to do 4H with a horse possibly, and maybe/hopefully be a working student.  And well, a good horse isn't free! 
It'd be nice to have the extra money to put towards 1) national convention and 2) a horse. 
Despite wanting to get back into horses, don't worry, I won't forget my bunnies!

Who?
I haven't decided for sure who will be for sale, but here's who I'm considering letting go of:
  • Chrissy's Critters Gloriana BSD, Proven
  • Bergstrom's "Orange" Fiora SSD, Not proven, dilute and self carrier
  • POB's Narcissa SSD, Semi proven, chocolate and non-extension carrier
  • POB's Cheap Thrills SJD (may be sr by the time she's available), Not proven, possible dilute and non extension carrier
  • POB's Little Bear SSB, proven, chocolate carrier
  • POB's Razzle BSD, not proven, possible chocolate carrier, non extension carrier

Now before anyone goes crazy, I have thought about these rabbits a lot and I have my reasons which will be explained more if anyone asks or when they're actually listed for sale. 
NONE OF THESE ARE AVAILABLE RIGHT NOW. 
They may be in the future! I'd suggest filling out my waiting list: click here

When?
These rabbits may be available within the next 2-3 months. I'm thinking ahead here. 
When they are available and who is available will depend entirely on how things go in the next couple months. 



Anyways, that's what has been on my mind lately. I've given it a lot of serious thought and do want to downsize. 
I do have some PETS available currently, mostly from my rescue program. Please check my available pets page to see more info.

​Thanks for reading!

    Hello!
    I've raised Holland Lops since January 2015.  I have also had past experience with Mini Rex and Britannia Petites. I am also the 2017 OSRBA Duchess!
    I am not an expert, but I love rabbits, love color genetics and hope to be a vet one day. I love to write, so I write about my experiences, opinions, thoughts and tips on rabbit related subjects.
