Bountiful Supply Rabbitry
Welcome to Bountiful Supply Rabbitry! I breed and sell quality rabbits for both breeders and pets. I am also working on a show line.
All of my rabbits are kept in clean, healthy environments in which they can be healthy and thrive. They are fed 16 percent protein, 2.5 percent fat, and 21 percent fiber daily, along with occasional treats. My Holland Lops are only bred when in the most optimal state of health. All my rabbits are pedigreed and I am also registered with the ARBA (American Rabbit Breeders Association). My registered rabbitry name is Bountiful Supply Rabbitry. Thank you for visiting our site, and I hope that you find the perfect little bunny to love!
Commonly Asked Questions
Why Chose Holland Lops As Your Pet?
Holland Lops are known as being the calmest dwarf breed. They are very laid back, and often love nothing more than to be held in your arms. When well cared for and loved, a Holland Lop can be a fun and easy-to-care-for pet.

How Big Should My Cage Be?
For a Holland Lop, 2ft by 2ft is the minimal. The bigger the better.
A Long Term Commitment?
Unlike many other small animals, well cared for rabbits can live for several years. However, like dogs, larger breed bunnies do not live as long as smaller breed ones. For the most part, a healthy Holland Lop should live to be 8-9 years old. They have been recorded to live as long as 14-15 years old, believe it or not!
Are Holland Lops Good For Small Children?
The answer to this question varies. For the most part however, if you have a child that is 8 years or older, is responsible, and can properly handle a bunny, then a Holland Lop may be right for you.
If your child is under 8, or if he/she cannot properly handle a live animal, I would highly suggest that you monitor your child when he/she is interacting with your bunny. You must teach your child how to properly care and handle the bunny before allowing them to interact with the bunny unsupervised. If your child is not very responsible, please consider the fact that you may be the one caring for the rabbit until your child is responsible enough to take over.
Indoor or Outdoor?
Keeping your bunny outside on your porch or in a secure hutch is perfectly fine. All my rabbits live outside in hutches and are perfectly happy. In fact, I've found that an outdoor rabbit hutch is the most efficient way to house a bunny. Just make sure your bunny has access to shade at all times!
*How do I beat the cold?
Obviously, I live in North Carolina. Here it can get cold during the winter. So what do I do to keep my outside bunnies warm? First of all, I somehow cover the outside of their cages to break the wind. They can stand just the cold but without a way to get out of the wind, they don't have a way to keep warm. So I cover the outside of their cages with plastic, an old plastic feed bag (not a mesh bag those don't work), old siding, anything I can find that will block the wind. Then inside the cage I put down a layer of straw. Since the straw is longer that some of the hay pieces it creates a floor.The Hay is acutally what keeps the rabbits warm and cozy. So I would suggest putting down more hay than anything else.
Should I Litter Box Train My Rabbit?
Little-box training can be both efficient, and effective. Whether you are housing your bunny in a wire-floored cage, or a solid-floored cage, a litter-box trained rabbit can greatly reduce the amount of time and effort put into the necessary cage cleaning. Like any animal, a rabbit may occasionally have accidents. But overall, a rabbit's ability to use the restroom in the right spot is pretty good.
*Precautions It is important to understand that unlike cats, you can't let a rabbit roam your entire house, and expect to only to "go" in one or two litter boxes. That is unrealistic. A litter-box really will only work for the rabbit if it is contained to one room. However, if you are monitoring your bunny, you can allow it to hop around your house for a short period of time, and it will likely not have an accident.
*How Do I Litter-Box Train My Bunny
1: When cleaning out your rabbit's cage, take notice of what corner your rabbit uses the restroom in most often.
2: When you've discovered their "favorite" corner, place the litter box there.
3: Fill the Litter-box with some pine shavings on the bottom and hay on the top. DO NOT USE KITTY LITTER OR ANY CLAY FORM OF LITTER!!! The rabbit will eat the litter and contract stones in their intestines.
4: Hang the bunnies hay-rack next to the litter-box (bunnies like to nibble and dribble at the same time), but keep their food and water at the other end of the cage.
5: About every other day freshen up their litter box. (Just as long as it is pleasant and not stinky)
6: Over the course of a week or so, the rabbit will train itself to only use the litter-box. (The cleaner you keep their litter-box, the quicker they will catch on.)
