LaReau Lops & Cavies is a small rabbitry located in south central Wisconsin. Up until June 2007 we were known for the quality French Lops my daughter Kelly raised and showed plus some nice Holland Lops from the old Wardlow line that my son Jody showed.
Well the kids grew up…. as they do when you feed them. With Kelly in college and Jody so busy with high school, both decided to get out of rabbits and we dispersed all the French Lops. I kept the Holland Lops for myself and now wish I had kept a few of the French Lops too.
So I now raise only Holland Lops and Polish – two fairly small breeds which has lighted my feed bill considerably.
2008 was an extremely sluggish year for me personally and I didn’t breed many rabbits at all – in fact I’m quite low in rabbits.
Late 2008, Reilly’s blessed me with the addition of several of their nationally competitive Polish rabbits – I certainly now have the bloodlines to be able to produce some winning stock .
2009 finds me with a renewed interest at rabbit showing – I can’t wait for many of the upcoming Wisconsin area shows this year, even though I usually only get to about a dozen a year…..
Be sure to visit our blog often for up to date news about my rabbitry! Soon I’ll begin working on my new LaReau Lops & Cavies website and posting news here on a more-regular basis. I ended up deleting my directory website also, but have future plans in the works for a top-notch replacement rabbit breeder website at rabbitbreeder.net
