In our rabbitry we raise two breeds of rabbits. American Silver Fox and Jersy Woolies.

Acording to the National Siver Fox Rabbit Club,  '... the Silver Fox is a large rabbit with Senior does at 10-12 pounds and Senior bucks at 9-11 pounds. The body is medium in length with well filled shoulders and hindquarters. The two important features are [its] unusual long fur and evenly silvered coat. The coat is longer than normal commercial rabbit fur, with slightly coarse texture that should resemble the pelt of a fox. Silver tipped or white hairs will be present along the flanks and all over the body including head, feet and tail. The black color should run deep to the skin with a slate undercolor. The most unusual quality of the fur is that when it is slowly stroked backwards from the tail to the head, the fur "stands up," and it requires another stroke from the head to the tail to return it back in place.

Silver Fox are a gentle breed and have been dubbed the Teddy Bear of the commercial type. The does are easy breeders and are excellent mothers. They seem to adapt to any climate and sudden changes in temperature does not appear to bother them. They are easy to handle and they like attention. A high dress out percentage with a predominantly small boned carcass makes them a very desirable meat breed. '

We keep both pedegreed show animals and pet or table quality  Silver Fox.

Our Jersy Woolies are fiber rabbits whose fur is spun into wonderful yarn here on the farm.
