Rabbits
- All rabbits/kits are handled daily since birth and are bred for health, confirmation and temperament.
- We sell show, brood and the occasional pet. We will NOT sell a rabbit before the age of 8wks. (Florida Statutes 828.161)
- Only show and/or breeding quality stock are sold with a complete pedigree. Pet quality rabbits are NOT sold with pedigrees, however a Birth Certificate can be made, if requested (i.e. DOB, Sire and Dam’s name).
- The rabbits listed as show prospects or breeding stock are rabbit we believe show promise in these areas. Please understand that some lines develop more slowly than others and some go through their uglies early, therefore we usually like to keep show prospects here until 12-16 wks of age to watch their development.
- We do not sell a rabbit as show quality unless we, ourselves, would put it on the table. Too many breeders are offering “Show Quality” rabbits because a rabbit is from pedigreed stock/champion parents. We firmly believe there is a HUGE difference in “Show Quality” (rabbit we would proudly take to a show) and “showable” (just free of DQs).
*You can find much more detailed information under the Care & Info tab. - What I find in faults and/or disqualifications (as well as their positive points) are clearly listed on the “For Sale” page under each rabbit. Your purchase of a show quality rabbit is, in no way, a guarantee of a successful show career for that rabbit. Every rabbit show can have different outcomes and every judge has their own opinion.
- We, Boxwood Acres, reserve the right to at any time terminate a sale. IF a sale is terminated by us, then the deposit will be refunded.
PRICES are as follows: - Holland Lops, Jersey Woolies and American Fuzzy Lops:
Brood quality - start at $50 (and up)
4H/FFA/ show quality - start at $75 (and up) **depends on lines/parents/wins/age
Show quality (Open) - start at $100 (and up) *depends on lines/parents/wins/age
Pets - $25 - $40 (pedigrees are not provided with pets but we can make a "birth certificate")
- A non-refundable 50% deposit is required for each rabbit you want to purchase. Payments can be made by using PayPal OR a Money Order. IF a buyer chooses to send a US Money Order, we request it sent USPS Priority Mail with a tracking number and must be received within 5 business days.
- The balance (if any) is due at the time of pickup/ delivery. (cash or US Money Order).
- Rabbits/Goats will be held for up to 10 days (unless prior arrangements for longer, have been made).
- All rabbits/goats offered for Sale will be marked as one of the following:
Sale Pending – Deposit has been sent/received
Retained – Rabbit is being kept here at Boxwood Acres. MAY become for sale in the future.
Sold – Rabbit is paid for in full
- I will help you to the best of my ability find transport. There are lots of rabbit (and goat) people out there that can help get your rabbit/goat to you or a nearby show. We have rabbits living throughout south FL, as well as AL, GA, TN, SC, NC and LA. J We also will transport a rabbit/goat to any show we are attending free of charge.
- If for any reason you find you cannot keep your rabbit, please contact me. I MAY be able/willing take it back provided it is accompanied by a cage and feed. I will then make every effort to find the rabbit a new home.
- All rabbit leaving our rabbitry will go home with transition feed (what we feed here), Sales Policy and Care/Tip Information packet. Mix a little of YOUR feed with our feed in a bowl…each day use a little less of ours and more of yours until it is all gone. DO NOT change feed without transitioning slowly…it can cause gastric issues and diarrhea. We feed a 7:1 mix of Purina Show (blue bag) & Purina Pro (grey bag), to rolled oats, calf manna and BOSS (black oil Sunflower seeds) and fresh, quality grass hay (i.e. coastal, Bermuda/bahia, timothy).
All goats will be disbudded, given CDT shot and wormed. Bucks will be banded (wethers) if not of the quality we feel is necessary in helping to improve a line. Discount of 10% given to multiple purchases and/or 4H youth. If you buy a buck and want a wether as a companion, a discount is given on the wether).
