We are located in Farmersville Texas which is North East of Dallas. Between Greenville and McKinney.
Little did we know that we got our start in rabbits when our Son Bret (being 5 at the time) was a Hoto Mix Bunny at a local Easter Egg Hunt. Bret named him Wazzles.
Towards the end of 1999/2000 school year Tiffany (in second grade and 7 at the time) decided she wanted to show rabbits in 4-H the next school year. So I started to look around at all the different breeds of rabbits. There was a family that my husband Doug know through work that raised show rabbits. So we went to see what they had. After looking at the different breeds they had we decided on a little Seal Jr. Jersey Wooly Buck. Tiffany named him Thunder for he looked like a Thunder Cloud. Shortly after that Mickie a Jr. Broken Steel Mini Lop Buck came to live with us. Since then we have gotten into Satins.
After contacting Gay Simpson who is Mickie's breeder. We were invited to come to a Blue Ridge Rabbit 4-H meeting. We felt right at home from the first meeting and have been with the group for 3 years now. With the help of Gay Simpson, Judy Collinsworth, and Karen Lindwall/Bourg who help us get started showing and teaching us the thing we need to know.
I would like to thank all those who have helped us get a super start in the rabbits.
