French Lop Rabbits for Sale in Nevada
French Lops, 10 lb and up full grown, a genuinely large rabbit, raised indoors in Bakersfield, California and delivered to Nevada by USDA certified ground pet transport. $350 for bucks and does alike.
A French Lop Rabbit from our house to your door in Nevada. That is the short version. The longer one: we are Arlen Rabbitry in Bakersfield, California, the ground run is done by a USDA certified pet transport service in a climate-controlled vehicle, and nothing we send is ever flown or shipped as cargo. Collection from Bakersfield is welcome any day you can get here. $350 for bucks and does alike.
So how does a bunny actually get to Nevada?
You tell us which one you want and roughly where in Nevada you are. We come back with a price for your actual address rather than a figure off a chart, and a date chosen around what the route looks like that week rather than around the calendar.
From there it is a USDA certified pet transport service doing the ground leg. Climate-controlled vehicle, regular stops for water and a check, and a carrier with enough room to turn round and stretch out. Your bunny is never flown and never goes as cargo.
At the far end the transporter hands your bunny to you in person at your door, and you hear from us while the run is happening rather than only when it is finished.
Nevada: the timings
Two days is the floor for anywhere, and Nevada sits at 1 day because it is 300 to 500 miles of road from Bakersfield. That figure already includes the stops and the overnight breaks; it is not a straight-line estimate. A short run over the Tehachapis and out. Las Vegas summers are the constraint rather than the distance, so July and August deliveries leave before dawn.
Driving out instead? It is about 5 to 9 hours at the wheel, a long day each way. 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 Nevada
Nevada is 300 to 500 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.
Nevada weather, and this breed
A short run over the Tehachapis and out. Las Vegas summers are the constraint rather than the distance, so July and August deliveries leave before dawn.
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 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.

What a French Lop actually costs in the first year
The rabbit is the cheapest part. Housing, a spay or neuter, hay by the bale, pellets and an annual vet visit run well past the purchase price, and Nevada buyers should add the delivery on top of that.
