My
Sales Policy, and how I price my bunnies
Prices for my Angoras
are determined by their quality. In general, show quality means that
the bunny itself is free of any and all disqualifications at the time
of sale. The buyer is highly encouraged to check the rabbit for
dq's as well. Show quality also means that if the breeder (
myself ) where to keep this animal, I would proudly show it in ARBA
shows and most likely do very well with it. I normally keep
siblings out of each litter, and many of my Grand Champions ( all but
2) are home bred, meaning, I can champion what I keep.
Show quality Angoras will cost more if one or both parents are registered, and will cost more if one or both parents are Grand Champions. The amount of time it takes to develop a strain of purebred, strong producers and the costs involved in registering and showing ( and championing ) generation after generation of such a strain will have to be taken into condideration when pricing an animal.
Pet quality / wooler quality bunnies are siblings in a litter that will have a disqualification, keeping them from being shown, which can include : wrong eye color for the wool color, knot in tail from an injury in the nest box, one or multiple white toenails ( lack of pigment ) in a colored rabbit . All these problems ARE cosmetic, do not harm the rabbit or it's health in any way, but are sold at a discounted price and without pedigree most of the time ( to prevent breeding of an animal that has such dq's.). These bunnies should be used as pets and as wool producers, since some of these dq's are passed on in the offspring. Some pet quality bunnies might not have any dq's and simple not be of such quality that they would do well on the show table, maybe do not have that perfect body, or lack density if compared to the better siblings. There is no guarantee that a litter will have such discounted babies, however, I gladly sell a show quality bunny into a pet home, a buyer does not HAVE to show or breed a show quality Rabbit . As long as the higher price is paid, what you end up doing with the bunny is your choice.
My sales Policy is such that I do not guarantee anything once the bunny has left my home and has been taken care of by it's new owner.
Upon request, I can issue a health certificate from my Vet ( at the buyer's expense) for any rabbit that I sell, all shipped rabbits have a certificate of health as well. Any issues of poor health can be taken to my Vet for further discussion.
Due to bad experiences in the past, I do not guarantee health or longevity of any of my sold rabbits once they leave my rabbitry. If you drop the rabbit and break it's bones, if you feed it wrong and against my instructions and recommendations, if you house it wrong, if for any reason the bunny becomes ill or dies due to actions taken in your home or rabbitry, YOU are responsible for it's death, not me.
If a show quality Rabbit receives an injury in your home , vehicle or rabbitry, I will not refund the money. Check each rabbit you buy carefully, and point out any dq's you might find. Once the rabbit has left my premises, I am not responsible for broken or missing tails, toes, toenails, teeth etc.
If a rabbit that you buy will not make senior weight at the appropriate time, and I can show siblings from the same litter that have staid here and DO make weight, I can not refund the purchase price. What and how you feed your Rabbits is your choice, however, I can not guarantee that my rabbits will adjust well and grow well if you do not follow my feeding instructions and general feeding guidelines given by many well known breeders and groups. Should the entire litter have problems with making weight for showing, I can refund the difference between show q. price and pet price or exchange the animal for one of better weight.
If anyone has a question about the health of a specific rabbit or my entire herd in general, please make an appointment with me to check my entire rabbitry and herd. You will not find one injured animal, you will not find one sick animal, you will never hear any sneezing or find evidence of illness. IF a sold animal is exposed to sick animals in your home or rabbitry, I can not guarantee that it will not become ill.
