French Lop Rabbits for Sale in Arizona
French Lops, 10 lb and up full grown, a genuinely large rabbit, raised indoors in Bakersfield, California and delivered to Arizona by USDA certified ground pet transport. $350 for bucks and does alike.
Two ways this works if you are in Arizona. We bring your bunny to you, or you come and fetch them. We are Arlen Rabbitry in Bakersfield, California. The first is a coordinated ground run with a USDA certified pet transport service, climate controlled and by road the whole way. The second is a drive out, a proper look at the litter, and your bunny home on somebody's lap.
Both are straightforward and we will talk you through either. $350 for bucks and does alike.
The Arizona run, start to finish
Before. You pick your bunny and tell us your nearest town. We quote the transport for that address and give you a date, planned around the weather on the route. Nothing is paid before you know the number.
During. A USDA certified pet transport service takes it from here. Road the whole way in a climate-controlled vehicle, stopping regularly for water and a check. No flight, no cargo hold, no airline.
After. Your bunny is handed to you in person at your address, with the paperwork and everything they are going home with. You will have heard from us along the way.
How long it takes to Arizona
From two days. Arizona is 450 to 600 miles from us, which works out at 1 day by road once the stops and overnight breaks are counted. Arizona summers are the reason we travel at night for June through September deliveries. A rabbit does not tolerate heat the way it tolerates cold, and above 85F we move the run rather than risk it.
If you would rather drive it yourself, Bakersfield is about 8 to 10 hours from Arizona behind the wheel, a long day each way. A good number of families do exactly that: you meet the parents, you choose in person rather than from a photograph, and your bunny comes home on somebody's lap. Collection is free and we work around whatever time you can get here.
Getting a French Lop to Arizona
Arizona is 450 to 600 miles from us, 1 day on the road. The run is handled by a USDA certified pet transport service, in a climate-controlled vehicle with regular stops for water and a check. Your bunny goes by road the whole way: never flown, and never shipped as cargo.
What this breed's size means for the journey. This is the one where distance genuinely matters. A 10lb rabbit needs a large carrier, more water stops and more airflow, so a long run takes more planning and we will talk you through it honestly before agreeing a date.
Arizona weather, and this breed
Arizona summers are the reason we travel at night for June through September deliveries. A rabbit does not tolerate heat the way it tolerates cold, and above 85F we move the run rather than risk it.
A large body sheds heat slowly, which makes the French Lop the most heat-sensitive of the four on a long journey. Summer deliveries to the southern half of the country are overnight only, and we will move a date rather than push one.
French Lops ready for Arizona now
Raised indoors and handled daily. If one of these has gone by the time you write, ask and we will tell you honestly what is coming rather than take a deposit against a maybe.
Keeping a French Lop in the desert Southwest
A 10lb rabbit in the desert Southwest needs serious cooling and we will not pretend otherwise. A large body sheds heat slowly, and while dry air helps, a French Lop in an Arizona or southern Nevada summer is an air-conditioned animal from May to September. Given that, it does very well here: winters are a non-event.
Size. 10 lb and up full grown, a genuinely large rabbit. Care. Size drives everything. A French Lop needs a much larger enclosure than people expect, and sore hocks from hard flooring are the common problem, so soft bedding is a requirement rather than a nicety. Nails monthly and a proper look over the back end weekly, because a rabbit this size cannot always reach.
What it gets mistaken for. Confused with the Flemish Giant, which is larger again, and with an overweight Mini Lop. A French Lop is large by breed rather than by feeding. Everything about the French Lop.
The other three breeds, also delivered to Arizona
Same journey, same price, different rabbit. Worth comparing before the distance matters.
- Holland Lops for sale in Arizona, about 2 to 4 lb full grown
- Mini Lops for sale in Arizona, 4.5 to 6.5 lb full grown
- Netherland Dwarfs for sale in Arizona, 1.5 to 2.5 lb full grown
Buck or doe, for a Arizona household
A more consequential decision than colour and one most buyers leave to chance. Bucks tend to be steadier and more affectionate once neutered; does are often more independent and can be territorial about their space before spaying.
The full comparison, and tell us which way your household leans and we will point you at the right rabbit rather than the next one available.
