Delivered to Delaware
French Lop Rabbits for Sale in Delaware
French Lops, 10 lb and up full grown, a genuinely large rabbit, raised indoors in Bakersfield, California and delivered to Delaware by USDA certified ground pet transport. $350 for bucks and does alike.
The honest position is that we are not in Delaware, and it stops nobody. We are Arlen Rabbitry in Bakersfield, California. Families right across Delaware have had bunnies from us, brought to them by a USDA certified pet transport service in a climate-controlled vehicle, by road, never flown. And anyone who would rather drive out and choose in person is welcome to. $350 for bucks and does alike.
How delivery to Delaware works
- Tell us which bunny and whereabouts you are. The one you have your eye on, and your nearest town in Delaware.
- We price the run for your address. Quoted for where you actually live, and you get the figure before you commit to anything.
- We agree a date around the weather. Set by what the route looks like rather than by the calendar.
- Your bunny travels by road, climate controlled. Regular stops for water and a check, in a carrier with room to turn round. Never flown, never cargo.
- It is handed to you in person. Straight from the transporter's hands to yours, at your address.
- You hear from us on the way. Updates while it is happening, not a message once it is done.
Delaware: the timings
Two days is the floor for anywhere, and Delaware sits at 4 days because it is 2,550 to 2,850 miles of road from Bakersfield. That figure already includes the stops and the overnight breaks; it is not a straight-line estimate. A small state at the far end of a long run. Summer humidity is the only real consideration.
Driving out instead? It is about 44 to 49 hours at the wheel, two to three days each way with overnight stops. Worth it for a lot of people, because you get to handle the whole litter before you decide and your bunny travels home with you rather than with anybody else. There is no charge for collecting.
Getting a French Lop to Delaware
Delaware is 2,550 to 2,850 miles from us, 4 days 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.
Delaware weather, and this breed
A small state at the far end of a long run. Summer humidity is the only real consideration.
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.
Keeping a French Lop in the Mid-Atlantic
Manageable through the Mid-Atlantic year with August needing attention. The regional constraint is housing stock: a great deal of this region is apartments and rowhouses, and a French Lop is genuinely not an apartment rabbit. If you are in one, we will suggest a Holland or a Dwarf instead and mean it.
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.

What arrives with your French Lop
A care sheet written for this breed rather than for rabbits in general, enough of the food it is already on to change over across a week, and its date of birth and parentage in writing. The full list.
Have a vet in mind before it travels to Delaware. Rabbits need a vet who actually sees rabbits, and that is worth checking in advance rather than in an emergency.
