Our Hot Topic is Best Advice:

—What is the best advice you were given as a beginner when you selected Holland Lops.

—What advice do you give new breeders? What would you offer long-time breeders?

—Have you received bad advice? What was it?

—If there was one thing you could go back and teach yourself earlier, what would it be and why?

—What is the best piece of health advice you have received for your rabbits?

—What is the greatest nutritional advice you have gotten and how has it influenced your herd?

—Where do you find the best advice is given? 

—How do you find advice is best delivered to new breeders? Long-time breeders?

🐇 ​ Missing Hollanders - I am so sorry to everyone who still haven’t receive their last issue of our Hollander. I did check with Jeremy and this seems to be a problem across several breeds and that it is not the printer. It seems to be more of a problem with mail delivery in general. This last one seemed more widespread than normal and again I am so sorry. We are working on ways to help for the future. Our webmaster, Karen is working on setting up private access for members to a part of our website that will have many of our past Hollanders and our current Hollanders. Be watching for more announcements about this.
