French Lop Rabbits for Sale in Massachusetts
French Lops, 10 lb and up full grown, a genuinely large rabbit, raised indoors in Bakersfield, California and delivered to Massachusetts by USDA certified ground pet transport. $350 for bucks and does alike.
Arlen Rabbitry sends bunnies to Massachusetts the year round. We are in Bakersfield, California, we raise French Lop Rabbits indoors, and the ground leg to Massachusetts is handled by a USDA certified pet transport service: climate-controlled vehicle, road the whole way, never a cargo hold. Prefer to collect? Come to Bakersfield and pick yours in person. $350 for bucks and does alike.
The Massachusetts 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 will I be waiting?
From two days. The Massachusetts run is 2,800 to 3,000 miles and takes 3 to 4 days, counting the water stops and the overnight breaks that any decent transporter builds in. The furthest corner of the country from us, and a nor easter will move a delivery by a day without argument. Rabbits handle the cold; stopped traffic in a storm is what we avoid.
And if the drive appeals more than the wait, Bakersfield is about 48 to 52 hours from Massachusetts, which most people split as two to three days each way with overnight stops. Come and collect, meet the litter, take your time choosing. It costs nothing but the fuel.
Getting a French Lop to Massachusetts
Massachusetts is 2,800 to 3,000 miles from us, 3 to 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.
Massachusetts weather, and this breed
The furthest corner of the country from us, and a nor easter will move a delivery by a day without argument. Rabbits handle the cold; stopped traffic in a storm is what we avoid.
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 Massachusetts 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 New England
A large, well-coated rabbit is comfortable in a New England winter and this is a good regional fit on temperature. Two things matter: floor space through a five-month indoor season, and soft flooring, because sore hocks in a heavy rabbit on hard boards is the single most common problem we hear about from this region.
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.

Buck or doe, for a Massachusetts 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.
